Chairman‘s Reserve Single Batch Release (Selected by Smuggler‘s Cove)
Fresh yellow fruit, spice, and honey make this an easygoing, creamy St. Lucia pour, mild yet characterful. One to try if you’re curious about agricole-style rum with subtle bourbon influence.
Fruity, spicy, creamy; great bourbon cask character.

- lange und entêtante finale
- viele Frucht begleitet von Gewürzen
Chairman’s Reserve Single Batch Release (Smuggler’s Cove) leans heavily into yellow and tropical fruits, honey, and nutty, spicy layers—all propped up by a clean hit of bourbon cask. The nose is "sehr verhaltene, quasi schüchterne" (@crazyforgoodbooze), with subtle wood and a little agricole edge, opening onto a palate that’s fruity and spicy with gentle nuttiness. Users mention the finish as "lang und warm" (@Beach-and-Rum 🏖️🌴), and several note an unexpected creamy, almost cake-like vibe—"etwas von der Schwarzwäldertorte mit Kirschen" (@Mirco). Not complex, but calls itself out for texture and unique balance.

"Tasted in San Francisco at Smuggler's Cove and packed a bottle right away. Very pleasant, fresh nose paired with tropical fruits. Rather atypical for a St. Lucia, but awesome. On the palate creamy, pleasantly sweet and mildly spicy - simply delicious!"
"8,4:On the nose, the first impression we get is nougat, marzipan and roasted with burnt sugar, some solvents and fruity with pear, honeyed dried fruits.The sugar cane is a bit spicy, smoky and waxy. The ex bourbon cask ageing is quite noticeable, as the yellow fruits make stronger presence after the airing. Going towards more vegetal notes with grass, tea and flowers, a bergamot note is very pleasant... The roasted wood gives us some almond and caramel also. After well rested, some hints of sesame could be present... 8,5:On the palate, the attack is fruity with tropical, yellow fruits, spicy and fresh, agricole like with waxy and mineral, honeyed sugar cane. The wood is dry and roasted, smoky with nuts. Some acidity if citrus with salt is temporarily present, quickly wanes... After nice rest, the fruits are more dried and ripe with dried dates, figs, banana, peaches. It becomes a bit vegetal, musty. 8,5:The finish is woody, dry, there is mineral, waxy sugar cane, musty. The fruits are yellow and dried, there is very juicy mirabelle plum, nuts and some spice, after some time some se same might be present..."
"Bei Smuggler Cove probiert. Leider sind die Flaschen zum Kaufen nun aus. Hab den letzten Schluck vor Ort in der Bar probiert. Kommt mir wie eine verdünnte RumX Abüllung vor. Hatt auch etwas von der Schwarzwäldertorte mit Kirschen."
"Very restrained, quasi shy nose. Also rather subtle aromatically and not a complexity bomb. But round, tasty and mild. White sesame seeds come through nicely here, with intense bourbon cask notes and some plantain, as well as honey. Round thing!"
