Not a bad blend either, but not quite coherent. More ester notes.

Sehr spezieller Stil durch den Mix aus Guyana und Jamaica. Mir persönlich zu viel Bitterstoffe, zu verbrannt und Medizinisch. Die Fruchtknoten vom Jamaica Anteil sind leider kaum noch wahrnehmbar.

Fruchtige Jamaika Nase. Im Geschmack holzig und schokoladig. Der Abgang ist mittel und malzig. Guyana und Jamaika deutlich erkennvar. Aber nicht mein Navy-Favorit. Dann lieber Black Tot 2020. Aber gutes P/L

Ein schweres würziges Aroma, Melasse, etwas alkoholisch, dunkle Schokolade, etwas Ester. Der Geschmack ist sehr kräftig, Kaffee und dunkle Schokolade, Würzig und Röstig. Ein sehr angenehmer Navy Rum.

Not the best Navy style I've ever tasted, not much to say about it, it's strong, dry and lacks sweetness.

On the nose, the alcohol is well present with woody notes and ripe fruits. The attack is frank and not very surprising, the 57° are well there! A spicy, woody rum, which after aeration develops a vegetable side. A nice roundness despite everything that covers the palate well! For the price, bravo!

Kann im direkten Vergleich zu Pusser's 50th Anniversary oder auch nur dem Gunpowder Proof nicht wirklich mithalten. Etwas flach und nicht ganz harmonisch. Entweder etwas mehr Jamaica Ester oder Guyana Darkside hätte ihn gut getan. Alkohol ist dafür ganz gut integriert. Kann man aber für High Proof Einsteiger gut auf den Tisch stellen oder für einen Rum Mule, Rum Old Fashioned bzw. Navy Negroni verwenden. Wiederum Klassen besser als ein Bonpland Forte mit seinen künstlich wirkenden Weinaromen.
