    Master tasting from Rest & Be Thankful via RumX A wonderfully subtle nose full of sweet fruit. On the palate it is slightly soft and sweet with restrained fruit... nutty and light coffee flavors develop later. The finish is fresh (mint) paired with coffee. This LP is my favorite of today's tasting (very tasty)

    Fruity taste as well as honey, after a while sharply burning. The aftertaste is pleasantly lingering woodiness. Good comfortable Jamaica - but probably not worth the price

Palate Light roasted wood, tannins, fruits, light ester, faint coffee, berries, naturally sweet, light nutts. Finish Medium long, light wood, citrus, light coffee, mint. ---------------- #4382 22.10.2023 Whisky Live 2023

    Tasted during the RumX masterclass. Huge thanks the guys from R&BT for presenting their range! Very nice exploration of some low(we) ester marks. While some of the noses were a little light, the long aged expressions are very interesting on the palate across the board. Very interesting! :) Very round while intense on the palate. The long maturation really did a good job here.
