    How does this rum taste?

    Fruity depth and polished balance lead the praise for S.B.S Mauritius 2009. Reviewers call out cherry, raisin and blackberry over well-judged oak, with a fresh mint lift and the 53.7% cask strength smoothly integrated. Many note a classic Grays profile with Moscatel-cask red fruit. Well rated by 55 RumX members, it’s an easy sipper; only 305 bottles were released. With noted value and complexity, it’s a choice enthusiasts trust.

    Another rum from my new favorite distillery Grays. And this rum does not disappoint at all, the opposite is the case: he inspires (me)! Just look at the color of the rum in the bottle! 😍 Wonderfully dark, hard to believe in a rum from the year 2009. (Was there but helped?) Anyway, a very, very pleasant-balanced rum, deep, spicy, fruity, the for me identity-creating currant note may not be missing. Round thing, alcohol well integrated, acceptable PLV - recommendation especially for all who like to walk off the beaten path.

    This brought me back to a place in Slovakia I used to live. Especially to berries I used to pick :) Currants, wild strawberries. If you told me this is the one and only drink I had to drink throughout my life, I would be pleased. Drunk but pleased.

    Rum Mauritius fliegt immer noch unter dem Radar, dieser hier ist dennoch schon "ausgetrunken". Leider, denn er ist sehr gut! Herrlich süffig mit einem ordentlichen, aber angenehmen Holzschlag, süße, Früchte und Kirsche en masse. Das Mundgefühl ist ölig und cremig. Ein super Rum!

    Der intensive Fasseinfluss verbindet sich harmonisch und treffend ausbalanciert mit dem feinen Destillat. Eiche mit Würze und Tiefgang trifft auf fruchtige Aromen von Sauerkirschen, schwarzen Johannisbeeren und Pfirsich. Insbesondere die Entwicklung im Mund mit der begleitenden Colanuss-Note finde ich toll. Hinzu kommen noch eine natürlich wirkende, nicht übertriebene Grundsüße von Rosinen und eine dezente Minzfrische. Gefällt mir sehr gut!
