How does this rum taste?
Brutal, balanced TECC ester-bomb
If you enjoy heavy Long Pond TECA/TECC or Romdeluxe’s 80%+ bottlings, this pushes things even further—crazily intense, but RumX members say the payoff in funk and fruit is worth it.
Beginners, anyone sensitive to very high ABV, or drinkers who dislike solventy, funky profiles or expect mellow, long-aged wood influence and easy sipping.

Might be the best Jamaican I've had. It really surprised me. Really good intensity and funk from the high-ester rum, with an impressive balance and complexity from the just 7 month continental aging in a small virgin cask. I had to buy two bottles and can only rate it up the among the best Demerara rums I've had from Velier. Both the nose and the taste is just wonderful. Try it if you can!
02.03.2024 Retasting at Whiskymessen and I stick to my score. ---------------------- #4522 14.12.2023 Went to visit Whisky Watcher in Odense for a very intimate tasting. This one is the bomb. The have hit the mark with the Virgin oak maturing. Very fruity with nice esters and a touch of licorice. The palate is nice and oily with fruits and nice licorice at the end. The finish is very long, dry and warm with stronger licorice notes. Very good ABV integration and beautiful curtains in the glass.
Probiert auf der Hanse Spirit 2024 Mit den 85,3% ein absolutes Brett. Aber wie auch bei den vorigen Abfüllungen in dem ABV Bereich super eingebunden und geschmacklich sehr intensiv. Er ist sehr geschmeidig im Mund und hängt noch lange nach. Kann für mich nicht ganz mit dem etwas geschmeidigeren HGML mithalten, aber dennoch eine super Abfüllung!
This LP TECC packs quite a punch, but in a positive way. Ester and co. dominate the nose, of course, but subtle fruity notes (citrus/papaya) and a ginger/maggi mix are also perceptible. Top. On the palate, the over 80% cannot be ignored, but it doesn't have to be. After a short bite, a beautiful funkiness develops from esters, sour fruit, young wood and roasted aromas. That fits. The finish is quite long with a slight sweetness. A great bottling and a great start to the new RomdeLuxe series PS: the longer it stays in the glass, the better it gets. So give it a little more time Edit: Tasted again today in Mirco's blind tasting... my rating remains the same
