Quite a nice planteray here. The nose is dominated by tropical fruits and citrus fruits. The tropical and dried fruits also predominate on the palate. However, it is also spicy and nutty here.
Unfortunately, the alcohol is not well integrated, otherwise I would have liked it better.
8:On the nose, the first impression we get is fruity and vegetal with low estery tropical fruits and molasses.The wood is roasted with some caramel, nuts and a bit spicy.We scent solvents, lucky are not intensive.Citrus with lemon peel rounds up the notes. On aeration, molasses is stronger with hay, cereal, the wood becomes earthy, as a bit malty licorice is also on the surface.Some pleasant flowery notes with enticing Violet pop up.Later, after good rest, a rubber is felt, ripe pineapple and bitter orange. 7,6:On the palate, the attack is spicy, fruity, a bit thin with overripe tropical and dried fruits like figs, the wood is roasted with nuts, chocolate, caramel, spicy with vanilla.The molasses is vegetal with cereal and hay.The rum quickly becomes dry, a bit bitter with a bitter orange, but stays quite balanced. 7,6:The finish is medium long, the palate notes linger on with rum becoming more bitter, a bit tannic, but covered in honey, which corrects the impression of our tasting..
Kein High Ester, geht eher Richtung Clarendon, sehr trocken. Alkohol nicht gut eingebunden.
