How does this rum taste?
The FRC Ecuador (Kirsch Whisky) is a rare, cask-strength rum from the Romero & Sons distillery. Distilled in 1973 and aged for 50 years, it showcases notes of vanilla, chocolate, and caramel in its aroma, while the palate features spicy, chocolate, nutty, and oak undertones. Despite its impressive aging process and limited availability of just 195 bottles, reviews suggest it falls short in complexity and overall satisfaction, with some describing it as too sweet and flat. The alcohol presence is notable, with some users finding it harsh. While possessing an appealing chocolate note, expectations of depth from its significant age are not fully met, according to users.

Phew, I really expected more. Regardless of the data of the rum, which sound interesting at first, quite "sober" considered: Alcoholic, flat, column style, a little more flavor compared to the others, chocolate, some barrel.
Bei dem hier kann man zumindest Dunkle Schokolade wahrnehmen. Leider konnte keines der vier Fässer überzeugen. zu süß, viel zu flach, von knapp 50 jahren Lagerzeit erwartet man einfach mehr. Alkohol ist auch sehr präsent, brennt....
The next FRC. Again a little too sweet, but not as bad as the previous one. Again vanilla, caramel and dark chocolate on the nose and palate. Also quite spicy and slightly alcoholic on the palate.
Gefällt mir besser als RX17309 und RX17310, ist aber immer noch enttäuschend. Vielleicht auch einfach nicht mein bevorzugter Stil.
