    How does this rum taste?

    The Jamaika Rum (Monastrell Cask), bottled by Spahns Scotchwarehouse, offers a unique Jamaican profile with a limited release of 53 bottles. This rum was distilled in 2020 from molasses and aged for 3 years and 7 months, carrying a potent cask strength of 59.2% ABV. Users describe its complex aroma dominated by ester notes, complemented by maple and fruit scents. Tasting reveals a distinctive blend of ester, port, and dried fruit flavors with hints of allspice.

While praised for its rich profile and value, some find the finish too sour or overpowering.

    Ein schönes Wechselspiel aus wildem Destillat und dem schwerem aber süßen Monastrell Finish, was (mich zumindest) in der Kombination eher an Portwein erinnert. Vielleicht ein Hampden? So oder so, sehr lecker. PLV auf jeden Fall 10/10.

    High Ester mit so einem Finish passt sehr gut zusammen! Könnte ein New Yarmouth sein!

    Spahns Jamaica Rum. Wäre unser damaliger Gesundheitsministet nur annähernd so fähig gewesen wie dieser Rum, dann wäre uns viel erspart geblieben :-) In der Nase jedenfalls für mich nur Ester zu riechen. Am Gaumen kommen dann noch Früchte und Rotweon hinzu.

    Preis Leistung richtig gut, viel Volumenprozent für 40€, ich habe mir den Rum gekauft mit dem Hintergedanken, damit einige Cocktails aufzupimpen die etwas Jamaica benötigen.
