    Und der nächste Schokoladenrum. Hinzu kommen hier Kräuter in der Nase, außerdem sehr alkoholisch. Am Gaumen dann ebenfalls viel Alkohol und wieder Schokolade, außerdem noch leichte Noten von Karamell. Alkohol nicht so gut eingebunden.

    Phew, I really expected more. Regardless of the data of the rum, which sound interesting at first, quite "sober" considered: Alcoholic, little flavor, flat, column style, a touch of vanilla.

    Auto-translated

    Man kann ganz leichte Frucht wahrnehmen, kann es aber nicht zuordnen. Ausser Alkohol, Süß & bischen holz kommt da nix. 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....

    Ähnliches Bild wie beim 1972er Fass: Sehr süss, hier vielleicht etwas runder, weil die Süsse einen Ticken runder daherkommt, aber leider weiterhin mit dem oxidierten Aromen, die in Richtung Kräuter tendieren. Geniessbar, aber keine Offenbarung.
