Considering the price tag at release this is a very nice rum. From opening the bottle you get the ester and fruits and once rested the flavours just sneak across the table. Intense, fruity with nice ester and glue notes, light wood with spices. In the empty glass i can pick up faint chocolate notes. Oily on the palate and it draws really nice curtains in the glass.

Welten liegen diese Sherry finished Jamaikaner nicht auseinander, aber ich steh drauf. Bei diesem ist der Sherry Einfluss nach meinem Eindruck etwas geringer. Im Mund kommt er etwas würziger rüber, der holzeinfluss ist trotz des jungen Alters gut spürbar. Für mich etwas schwächer als die vergleichbaren neueren Abfüllungen mit niedrigerem Mark

die PX Sherry Cask Reifung macht sich zunächst nur an der Farbe bemerkbar, die fetten Ester geben den Ton an, nach einer Weile im Glas kommen aber auch rote Früchte und würzige Noten, mehr dann noch am Gaumen, mit einem röstigen Abgang. So richtig abholen kann mich die Kombination dann aber irgendwie doch nicht…

Only the second time I’ve tasted a DOK as far as I know. Not for beginners, that’s for sure. A lot of acidic and chemical notes from start to finish (nail polish, aceton, etc.). The dry but still smooth sensation in the finish is something special. I do like it though.

Der SBS Hampden ist leider nicht mein Fall. Lack, Klebstoff und Butter dominieren. Im Hintergrund vergorene Früchte und Marzipan. Es bleibt bei gut und damit unter 80 Punkten.

Gelungen, aber kommt nicht an den Vorgänger mit dem small px cask ran.

Eine Ester Bombe wie aus dem Bilderbuch. Am besten alleine oder am Ende eines Tasting da der (sehr gute) Nachgeschmack sehr lange anhält und alles nachfolgende überlagert. Was auch super gut funktioniert ist es z.B. einen Mai Tai mit etwas milderem Rum mit 1 cl von diesem hier aufzuwerten.

Farbe: Blassgold Geruch: Sehr lecker, fruchtig und süß. Nach dem eingießen füllen sofort fruchtige Ester den Raum, vor allem Ananas-Aromen. Sehr intensiv - Ester ohne Ende - und zwar sowohl Frucht- (Ananas, Birne, Quitten, ein Hauch Banane) als auch Lösungsmittel-Ester. Zudem etwas geschlagene süße Sahne. Muss längere Zeit stehen und öffnet sich dann immer mehr. Geschmack: Sehr lecker, fruchtig und würzig. Zunächst süß und fruchtig im Mund. Dann folgt eine Geschmacks-Explosion beim Schlucken. Dabei nehme ich sehr viel Ananas und Birnen war. Süßlich, wird in der zweiten Geschmacks-Welle dann auch sehr würzig. Abgang: Sehr lang und wärmend, dabei immer noch sehr fruchtig, aber auch würzig. Wird dann zunehmend trocken-staubig. Der Nachgeschmack ist trocken-fruchtig. Fazit: Ein wirklich sehr leckerer und typisch funky Jamaica Rum. Jung, wild und ungezähmt. Von dem PX-Sherry Cask habe ich ausser einer leichten Färbung ehrlich gesagt nichts gemerkt. Die PX-Sherry-Aromen sind in der Flut von Ester-Aromen komplett untergegangen. 88 Punkte
