    How does this rum taste?

    Distinct strawberry aroma
    Exotic appeal
    Unique flavor profile

    S.B.S Tahiti (Bourbon Cask), a limited release by 1423 World Class Spirits, offers an intriguing rum experience with its 57% ABV. Distilled in 2017 and aged for six years, it presents notable aroma notes of strawberry and glue. Users highlight a fruity taste with synthetic and metallic undertones, reminiscent of fruit schnapps. While the nose carries sweet barrel hints, the palate’s synthetic sweetness leads to mixed opinions. With only 277 bottles available, this rum's exotic status intrigues, though some find it unbalanced. Ideal for adventurous tasters seeking unique flavor profiles, potentially appealing in cocktails where sweeter notes are desired.

     Interesting, strawberry dominates the nose. Then sweet notes of fruit brandy. In the mouth it continues as a fruit brandy, fruity and somewhat rough in terms of alcohol. Finishes briefly with strong strawberry again. Interesting that this is a rum. I don't need a bottle of it.

     Well, unfortunately that's nothing... the whole rum is extremely sweet, artificial, thin.... Somehow "plump"

     Alcohol not well integrated, has something of artificial strawberry chewing gum á la Campino cream strawberry sweets and tutti-frutti. ... Not really my cup of tea. Super spicy in the finish. Too bad. There could have been more.
