13 years old 61%AVB 2009 is the year... it was distilled By south Pacific Available at master of malt UK 273 bottles Available It's a brilliant rum nice and funky.. not much afterburn ..to say how strong it is Gose down very easy... price 49 UK pounds Very good value puts a lot of expensive rums to shame Beat Fijian rum I had so far
Tasted against the Plantation Fiji ‘under the sea’ 2009. The MoM bottling is a great rum for a fantastic price. Fruity, funky nose leads into a rich, creamy toffee, butter taste. It is easily superior to the Plantation Fiji with a great punchiness, complexity and interesting flavours - wow the butteriness. The plantation is still good but smoothed out and more generic.
Tasted 27-10-2024 This is an incredible rum for the price which is why it scores so high .
Very complex and industrial but sweet. Like a continental aged PM with some funk. Now tasting at 48%: still very powerful. 99% dark chocolate on nose and especially dry chocolate roasted finish. Rubber and coffee. Really quite a beast, but somehow not 8.5+ due to ferocity. Amazing value. Also rumour that Fiji casks are disappearing so glad to have it.
