Even rounder compared to the Panama Rum Club 36 years, but still complex, fruity, chocolaty, wood, coffee, cinnamon, alcohol perfectly integrated. Apparently also a great price at 250 pounds!
An extremely interesting and tasty rum from Panama. On the nose, I encounter many notes of cocoa, tropical fruits, caramel, baking spices, leather and barrel influences. It is strongly reminiscent of a Barbados rum (FS Absolutio, for example) The 40 years of barrel influence have created some interesting notes on the palate. Here I have a lot of caramel, again baking spices, tobacco, leather, dried fruit, mocha, cinnamon and oak. The 59% is excellently integrated and makes the old distillate very pleasant to drink. The long finish is just as complex and elegant as the aromas on the palate. It is also surprisingly sweet and everything is accompanied by cardamom, cocoa and nutty tones. All in all, very pleasant and enjoyable. I can absolutely recommend it. Thanks to @Lot-NAS for the sample 😀
Probably the oldest panama I've had in my glass to date. I wouldn't guess 40y here, the 1983 Bellamy is much more mature and woody in comparison. There is more cinnamon, green cardamom, caramel, dark chocolate and mocha, as well as dried apricots and dried figs. Dangerously palatable and pleasing! But almost a little "too sweet" to be honest.
