How does this rum taste?
Heavy, dark and great value
If you like full-bodied, dark Demerara-style rums and don’t mind taming a strong ABV with a few drops of water, this offers serious Diamond character for very fair money.
Those sensitive to high ABV or looking for a super delicate, highly nuanced sipper; beginners may find the alcohol too dominant without dilution.

This too is column still, so I assume the same mark as the 13yo bottles. Not as much wood, a little more fruit and on the palate the alcohol is a bit stronger. However, this too had looong time to breathe (had to delay the tasting, so the sample was 1 day in the covered glass) and I really have no issue with this. Good one, also in regards to price for value, as this is single cask.
Probiert auf dem 12. GRF in Berlin: Tolle Abfüllung mit schönem Destillerie-Charakter.
Vorweg, die gute Berwertung ist vor allem dem sehr guten PLV geschuldet. Ein mega leckerer Rum der bei mir aus irgendeinem Grund immer das Schicksal hat, in Cocktails zu landen 😂😅 Für mich rein assoziativ : Guyana x Spanien. Diesen Rum nehme ich als sehr süß war, mit schönen Tabak und Leder noten - wäre da nicht eine gewisse Sprittigkeit, ist er sehr gefällig. Und dann hat er plötzlich noch eine weitere Ebene aus Kräutern und Eukalyptus, die ich dann auch mit Guyana assoziiere und am Schluss sogar noch etwas Lakritze. Ich finde, hier kriegt man sehr viel leckeren Rum für wiklich moderates Geld, wann man bedenkt, was Velier und Co schon für irgendeinen unaged nimmt, der bestimmt seine Berechtigung hat, aber nicht für das Geld. Und da er eh ( viel zu schnell ) getrunken wird, stört mich nicht wirkilch, dass kein namhafter Abfüller dahinter steckt, der den Preis für den Inhalt für die kommenden Jahre unproportional in die Höhe treiben wird.
Geiles Teil. Liegt so schwer im Mund, daß man das Gefühl hat ihn kauen zu können. Im 2. Tasting immer noch ein schwerer toller Guyana.
