Rumclub Private Selection Ed. 36 MDS

Blindly I would have guessed REV (malt, licorice, molasses, gentle) in the smell, KFM (earth, wood, leather, black tea, strong) in the taste. Definitely 100% Guyana and quite to my taste. A very fine droplet at a comparatively affordable price. I'm afraid I'll have to stock up on this rum. 😋 Update 2023-07-29: Slight downgrade from 89 to 87 points: The rum lacks a bit of fruitiness to play at the top.

Really strong, really good Diamond, full bodied, powerfull, but needs time to fully open up! Pay attention to the spiciness nose! First I guess this one is frome enmore🤔 I got some bottles, so I secured for the next months 🤤😃

A nose where the alcohol is present but not dominant, old varnished wood followed by overripe banana, pineapple and a hint of pastry. Flavors are precise, but the alcohol remains lively. The alcohol also marks the palate, but without dominating. The greediness sensed on the nose is revealed and blends harmoniously with varnished wood and dried banana. The finish is a little disappointing, a little too short, but a bitter, vegetal caramel lingers for a very long time. A very fine rum with smoky aromas in the empty glass, balanced despite the lively alcohol. Its not entirely convincing finish loses it a few points.

MDS, i.e. from the Savalle still (of which there are two at DDL). The color seems to me very dark, probably, colored. The high ABV is already clearly perceptible on the nose and palate. A few drops of water make the RumClub rounder. Otherwise, a nice profile with spices, dried fruit, tobacco, leather....

Super powerful Guyana, immediately molasses, dry fruits, dark chocolate and a few dirty notes that one is more accustomed to from Trinidad. The alcohol is super integrated. I personally have left the rum just under 30 minutes in the glass before I tasted it, that has definitely done him good. Great bottling once again from RumDepot, I am thrilled. Price performance I find this rum also really fair!

This is a Guyana to my taste, wonderfully spicy, strong and with a good PLV. This is already a positive exception. From the palate to the finish it is consistently on the heavy dark side! I really like this bottling

A powerful, opulent Diamond with a big barrel. The nose is powerful and intense, but oscillates between dark, spicy oak (licorice, roasted notes, molasses, chili, leather, dark chocolate, coffee) and fruit (coconut, cherry, blackcurrant, prune, raisin). It's a greedy, straightforward profile that's like an iron fist in a velvet glove. The attack on the palate is frank, straightforward and unpretentious. Chocolate, Demerara sugar, molasses, spices (vanilla, licorice, pepper, chili) and roasted hazelnuts are present for the gourmet side. Fruit is always present in the background (coconut, dried fruit). However, this "sweet heaviness" is quickly calibrated by strong, untamed alcohol, very dark woody notes and harder flavors of leather and tobacco. Despite its relative greediness, this is a profile that doesn't take much time to air out. The finish is of decent length. Although the power of the juice is still perceptible, the aromas lose their superb quality, resulting in a profile that is less complex, less harmonious and, on the contrary, more clear-cut. The main Demerara aromas (hot caramel, molasses, dark, gourmand notes of chocolate and coffee, spices, leather, tobacco and dried fruit) are still present, but without being flamboyant or transcendent. A pleasant profile for drinking a gourmet, peachy rum, but lacking a little depth to take it to the next level. Still, the value for money is very good for what it offers.

Dark! Tobacco, mocha, oak and spices. Tart, powerful nose. A touch of alcohol blows around the nose, with a few drops of water it goes noticeably smoother and milder. In the mind abundant caramel, wood and spices. Long, powerful and tingly finish. Masculine! The inexpensive alternative to the 1999 <S>.😅 Shoutout to Bonn for this lovely sample.

Kneipe Alte Post Witten Februar 2025. Als nächstes der Rum Club Ed. 36. Nase ist klasse, wir haben hier Holz, Kaffee und Lakritze. Am Gaumen dann dunkle Schokolade, Holz und Kakao. Ein sehr röstiger Rum.

#4141 This is a very nice release and the price tag is really good compared to what you get. Roasted wood with nice fruits and a medicinal note. Well balanced and good ABV integration. Draws really nice curtains in the glass and the empty glass has some licorice and coffee.

The color and age suggest that the rum came into the barrel colored after production.The nose is not as heavy and powerful as many of the El Dorade Rare Cask bottlings. The alcogol tweaks quite noticeably - not unusual at 65%. The nose is pleasing with burnt sugar, vanilla and bourbon and some dried fruit - but not particularly complex overall. Reminds me of good Spanish style rums.Then a consistent continuation on the palate: more dark chocolate and dark dried fruit. Again the alcohol strikes me unpleasantly.In the aftertaste further no surprise. The emphasis here is on the barrel notes, spice and coffee with a little harmless bitterness.Conclusion: Fair bepreistert standard Guyanarum, just "very good "Is possibly due to my form of the day and my hay fever nose, I will repeat the tasting soon.

Amazingly well integrated alcohol for the 65%! Great, complex Guyana!

Strong rum that remains long on the palate. Licorice notes, pleasant wood, barrel notes, coffee and some plum in the finish reminiscent of Guyana. In addition, there is a certain (delicious) dirtiness that I would have blindly located to Trinidad. Sober, it could seem a bit alcoholic in the approach, but that evaporates immediately after the first sip and gives way to the excellent harmonizing flavors.

Ui beautiful board. Dark, woody, malty, powerful. The 65% gives a long warm finish. The alcohol could have been integrated a little better for my taste. Nevertheless, a very good rum for a reasonable price.

Vůně lehce alkoholická, kombinace sušeného ovoce, karamelu, melasy a kávy. Výrazná chuť melasy s karamelem a čokoládou. Trošku datle a káva. V závěru zase káva, čokoláda na karamel, melasa, datle. Takový těžký hutný rum, ale dle mého gusta.
