“Again a very good 2006 REV. It needs time in the glass and then develops its potential . He is more on the spicy and strong side . In the background are easily perceptible fruit and sweet notes. After the 1994 REV's my favorite vintage of this Marks.”

“Nicely balanced REV from 2006. The vintage has real potential, but could use a bit more aging time.”

“An excellent modern-day Demerara rum. The nose is full-bodied, intense and rich in dark aromas of all kinds: from smoky wood to roasted notes (mocha, dark chocolate), from warm spices (licorice, anise, cinnamon) to roasted and malty notes, as well as burnt sugar, molasses and cola. The fruitiness is heavy on prune, accompanied by floral notes on a very fragrant black tea. It's a class act that envies nothing of last century's Enmore. The attack on the palate is exquisite, sticking to the palate with its fruity and floral flavors (aromatic herbs, dried fruit). The aromas are highly concentrated. The sweet, caramelized notes soften the palate against Demerara's darker notes (mocha, dark chocolate, wood, roasted notes and warm spices). The alcohol is very well integrated. The finish is long and warm, round but rather heavy and slightly tannic. A profile reminiscent of caramel and cola candy emerges, in contrast to the coffee, leather, spices, wood and roasted notes. A superb bottling from Nobilis that allows you to enjoy a lovely nectar on a rough winter's evening while staying warm.”

“My first encounter with REV 2006, so I don't really have anything to compare it to. I smell a sweet profile with very intense wood in the aroma. On the palate I smell wood, sweet notes and a hint of soap. The finish is long intense and closed with a bitter note.”

“I really love this 2006 REV - dark notes of wood, leather, tobacco, roasted coffee and dried fruits. Some (not unpleasant) bitterness in the background, balancing the overall profile. Salty caramel, dried herbs, drops of vinegar. This is a great daily drinker if you prefer heavy and dark spirits. The only downside is when I compare 2006 with its older brother and true monster REV 1994. Especially in a parallel tasting. Which is normal, due to aging differences and probably some other. But still remains a better bang for your hard earned buck. In my book, this is a back-up bottle worthy selection. 92/100”
