Sample no.16 of the 24 days of rum calendar 2023. One of the better ones in this years box but unfortunately this is exclusively made for the calendar 2023. Caramel and sweet vanilla on the nose and the 43% ABV also comes through with a sharp alcoholic sting. Palate is smooth as silk with caramel, banana, vanilla and oak. Very nice sipper!
Oh my goodness this is good!!! Smells like Pussers rum but tastes way much better. It is fairly sweet with typical guyanese tones such as dark chocolate, nougat but missing sort of raisins that I am used to at pussers. Spiciness comes up after short while which is pleasant I must say. So far probably the best guyanese rum that I have tasted. Maybe because it is fairly sweet but does not seem to be artificial. Much better than some eldorado, much better than pussers. Another sample from 24 days of rum 2023 that I would not hesitate to buy the whole bottle.
Doch ganz okay dieser Rum. Der erste Eindruck war relativ schlecht, aber der zweite und dritte Schluck haben meinen Eindruck klar verbessert. Dieser Rum hat eine leichte Schokoladen- und Karamellnote. Ganz ok.
Very caramelly/roasted in the nose (Diamond SV?). In taste a bit more fruityness and florality. A bit middle of the road demerara but still tasty enough.
