El Dorado The Last Casks (Black)

For me, this is the best of "The Last Casks". Very round and absolutely delicious on the nose. Super drinking strength, goes down like oil. Super combination of vanilla, heavy dark sweetness, roasted aromas, fruit and chocolate. On the palate, the rum tends a little too much towards bitter herbs and dry wood. The finish could be a little longer, but otherwise bravo!

Wunderbarer schwerer Rum, an der Nase noch verhalten aber am Gaumen dann vollmundig und intensiv, dickes eingekochtes Pflaumenmus mit karemelisiertem, leicht angebranntem Zucker. Eiche und Bitterorangen zum Nachklang. Sehr guter Guyana Rum die 50% sind genau richtig.

This is Guyana. It's sad to be told that rum like this from Guyana won't be available again.

Liquid Paulaner Spezi!😃Very tasty, even if I would never have guessed enmore here, let alone port mourant. Very intense sweet fruity notes almost like a spezi (cola + orange). Keyword cola cacher!

Beautiful, deep color, very oily. Smells very good, somewhat spicier and more tart than the Gold. Warm, strong, very (too) round. I suspect that some sugar has been added here. Let's leave out the "a little"...🎃🎃🎃 Full-bodied and spicy in the mouth. Sweet.🙀 Long finish, slightly tart at the beginning. A very good, too sweet and very drinkable Demerara sipper. PLV 👎, the Rare Collection is simply in a different league.

The 2nd of the 3 Last. Another wonderful age, 24 years tropical. Nose: very complex and dense, almost a little closed at the beginning. Great dark-sweetish, fruity-woody and spicy aromas. Here again the pleasant sweet glue with polish and maple syrup Tropical, with coconut and papaya, but also dried apricot, dark cherry, blackberry. Slight acidity from dried redcurrant or a dash of red wine. Milk chocolate and plenty of vanilla from the bourbon barrel. Very round. 8.9 Palate: oh, interesting. Dark-roasted and malty-sweet, but when the rum enters the throat, there's a sour, sharp and dull undertone, which is a little irritating, but then dissolves deliciously. What remains is passion fruit and chocolate, orange and fatty pecan. This gives it a slightly bacony taste. Great flavor curve, fun. 8,6 Everything actually fits together here. The alcohol is well integrated for me, the fullness of the aromas is great, the sample is empty before I can decode everything... the acidity is a little annoying, but that doesn't matter. PLV fits.

J ai bien apprécié la découverte de ce rhum , il m a donné envie d explorer les Très vieux guyana. Au nez il s exprimé déjà bien boisé humide mais pas désagréable comme j ai déjà connu. Du sucre brûlé, du torréfié. L attaque en bouche présente une amertume du au boisé humide, je pense à de la racine, mais ça s arrête assez rapidement avant que ça devienne gênant. Arrive en force une grosse gourmandise bien huileuse autour du chocolat noir, cuir , sucre brun carame raisin sec. Une belle finale boisée chocolatée. A noter la viscosité quand on voit comme il tapisse le verre !

On the nose, there's a pleasant dark demerara profile. More Enmore than PM. On the palate, there's still no PM, but a warm profile with a fine balance between fruitiness and pastry sweetness. The whole is pleasant but not expressive enough to seduce me.

heute die drei El Dorado Last Casks im Glas (red, black, gold label). Der schwarze ein 98er PM / Enmore / Tri-Canada blend. An der Nase kräftiger als der rote Bruder, es kommen mehr säuerliche Früchte, Piment, Karamell, und etwas in Richtung Lakritz oder Schwarzbrot. Am Gaumen Fass, röstig, sirup-artige Süße. Ranking: schwarz, gold, rot.

Nose 10/10, first taste 10/10. And you know I am strict. Then small downgrade, the spirit alcohol take the control, but still - great rum! ... Enmore - drive destilerka, nyni uz jen funkcni destilacni zarizeni. Patrne jedine drevene destilacni zarizeni na svete, ktere se tesi velke oblibe. Rumy Enmore totiz maji prichut popelu, kuze, tezkeho dreva, coz nadchne zejmena milovniky nakourenych whisky. A pokud tradicnim Guyanskym zpusobem prida vyrobce do rumu trochu melasy, mate v lahvi unikatni velmi vyrazny a tezky rum. Jeden z mych oblibenych.

Fruity with chocolate accents. I really liked it.

Armagnac taste in the chewing gum direction, woody, slightly sour, but pleasant, very complex, delicious!

Heavy in the American Oak in the nose. Literally heavy. After some time the lightness of the PM shines through..but subtle. Taste: not so heavy now. Still oaky and tannins but also an interesting sweet/sour/dry balance- red wine and cherry. Some leather. Tobacco. The sweet and sour really sticks. In the finish like the sourness an espresso can have with a certain bean/preparation.

A rum tasted at Rum Depot in Berlin. A sweet nose of candy sugar, marzipan and tart apple. The palate begins by expressing the acidity sensed on the nose, then the pastry side and a noble bitterness crown this beautiful evolution. The finish is clean, with yellow fruit and noble bitterness, and is quite long. The empty glass is on wood and marzipan.

8,7:On the nose, the first impression we get is really nice with typical dark notes like dried fruits with prunes, dates, raisins, dark molasses with black tea, roasted wood notes with burnt sugar, caramel, leather, dark chocolate, spicy vanilla and some orange with varnish flowing hand in hand. On aeration, more citrus is noticed, red fruits, nuts and creamy toffee from wood and brioche. 8,4:On the palate, the attack is very pleasant with dark molasses and dark, roasted wood notes like dark chocolate, caramelized, burnt sugar, coffee, leather and nuts, as the fruits are dried and orange.Very quickly these pleasant balance is demolished with too strong tannins and a petrol note.Luckily a second wave of rounding notes arrive like brioche with honey, nuts, vanilla, dried apricots, prunes and coconut, as the molasses is a bit vegetal, herbaceous. 8,3:The finish is long, a bit imbalanced with dry, tannic wood, luckily dark notes come to help rounding it, new notes to be tasted are cola and marzipan, perhaps dried figs...
