A rum tasted at the WLP. A splendid nose of prune, wood and light leather. The palate is rather (too) tight and tannic, but with lovely stewed fruit. A fine finish, a little too woody. A rum that's a little thin and tight in the mouth. I expected much better.
Really tasted on the bottom of a glass, so it's hard to tell, but clearly it's wise. Perhaps even too wise, obviously 34 years old is a mark. The fruit and wood are there, but next to that it's timid, and after a roller coaster of 5 intense rums, here we see a few ageing flaws. It's still very good and ultra affordable, of course.
Dont keep great rums in cask so long. Could be much better if taken out 8years ago. Woooooood!
Unfortunately, it seems very thin, at least in view of other Demerara releases of a similar age and from the same vintage. The basic product remains inspiring, but a bit too flat here.
