Naga Pearl Of Jakarta Triple Wood

"It’s first aged for 3 years in teak barrels, then for 4 years in ex-Bourbon oak barrels and finally finished during one year in former Sherry barrels. Overall a little bit better than expected, but unfortunately a little bit too sweet for my taste. "

"Auch relativ süss dieser Rum, aber alles noch im Rahmen. Man hat hier Honig, Vanille und Karamell in der Nase. Kommt für mich im Gaumen dann noch eine schöne Bienenwabe dazu und auch Lakritze ist zu schmecken. Ganz ok."

"Interesting citrus aroma with citrus and honey highlights. Some spices. Very unusual taste, quite salty. It's very sweet and has distinct sweet and sour taste. The licorice and anise are present in this rum and I'm really not a fan of these."

"Etwas verwirrend, aber interessant. Ich bekomme alle möglichen Assoziationen an unterschiedliche Spirituosen. Darunter Rhum Agricole und Mezcal. Dies setzt sich, wenn auch zurückhaltend, am Gaumen fort. Recht süß"

"Borderline sweet and at the same time alkoholisc right sharp... For me as a fan of Batavia Arrack really almost an insult ... I can also drink don Papa... Too bad."

"Honig, Vanille und Holz in Nase und Gaumen dominieren hier. Ein klein wenig erinnert er mich im Gaumen sogar an Mezcal. Interessante Kombination, jedoch recht schwach mit kurzem Abgang; mir persönlich auch zu süß."

"14.10.2018 Nice little get together with new rum friends. Notes. Medium dark colour. Nose: wood, light smoke, cherry, fruity. Palate: light, sweet, unbalanced, fruity, caramel, alcoholic. Finish: short to medium, fruity, sweet, wood, alcoholic."

"Intricately crafted but too sweet. Nose: Quite noticeable alcohol overnotes. Reminds me a lot of a whiskey finished in sherry barrels. Palate: Flavor and burn are almost entirely separated. Sweet tea with lots of sugar and a bouquet of tropical fruits (papaya in particular). Finish: Average finish length that does leave a certain sugary residue feeling. I was intrigued by the crafting of this rum. It’s a mix of pot still and column still and also a mix of aging in both bourbon barrels and sherry casks. Normally I am a huge fan of sherry cask aging but here sweet is laid upon sweet a little bit too much. Obviously not intended to be a pure dessert rum but too sweet to be enjoyed for long as a sipper. Hard to recommend."

"Nichts besonderes. 🤷🏻‍♂️"

"Bonne surprise. De la douceur mais intéressant"

"Ein interessanter Rum, bei dem die Nase etwas anderes verspricht als das, was am Gaumen ankommt! Er ist rund im Geschmack… ein sipper für den Abend"

"veel zachter dan de java, molassig"

"Ein sehr leckerer Kirschlikör könnte man fast sagen, aber es ist doch Rum. Ganz leichte Sake Note nicht so intensiv wie bei Nine Leaves. Neben dem süß-fruchtigen vor allem in der Nase und Abgang würzig."

"👃 is a no no. Fruit schnaps, very heavy and alcoholic. Dried fruits such as figs, raisins. 👅 Is completely different. Rather sweet, 🍫, very nice very surprising sweet rum. Probably the best Naga. I am very surprised even better than Siam. Lovely I will probably need to get a bottle."

"Good rum. The smell is sweet and inviting. The taste leaves a simple sweet taste in your mouth with a slight burn. The alcohol does not overpower the overall flavours and leaves you wanting for more. Overall it is a nice sipping rum and would not hesitate to add to my collection."
