     Interesting nose. Drying spice, wax and oranges. Reminds me of a Christmas cake. Something herbal and musty. The palate is extremely sweet, clogging. A big hit of vanilla to begin, the oranges from the nose, but this is a sweeter orange. Caramel towards the end. The short finish for me presented as a general salted caramel note. Better than the 7 year old from Old Monk, but still not great. Artificial tasting and too sweet for drinking neat. Could work in cocktails or cakes.

     Он определенно отличается от 7 летней версии. Если в 7 вы найдете специи и травы, то тут их нет. После того как вы дадите ему отдохнуть в бокале несколько минут появляется травянистость, карамель , немного фруктов. Во вкусе он не слишком густой, древесный и карамельный с легким налетом специй. В послевкусии есть ноты бальзама и дерева, карамель и ирис. В целом этот ром можно пить самостоятельно. Но не верится в 21 год выдержки. Возможно это солера? В любом случае я купил это с большой скидкой и не жалею о покупке.
