    Actually bought because of the bottle, taste but also okay.

    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.

    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.

    Poor rum From india. But better than classic version. Definitely dont buy.
