On the nose this is all bubblegum and esters. There’s more but those two dominate so much that it’s almost a disservice to speak of anything beyond them. That said, there is saltiness/brine and solvents behind that bubblegum ester. On the palate this is intense, wild, fermented funk. It’s briny and it’s zesty, salty and spicy. This explosive rum is untamed. I understand that many will love this. To me, at most, it is interesting. I would have been better served with a sample. Rums like this simply scream ‘unrefined’. There is a big trend for high ester, wildness these days - they are labeled as ‘unique’ and then score exceptionally high. I, personally, think this is a bit of a stretch. It’s conflating interesting with great - once that newness wears off, will you really be reaching for a dram of rums like this with any regularity? Can you honestly say it is just as good as other more balanced options? I understand this intensity is intentional and to each their own. I for one can’t embrace the hype train. To me this one is fun, it’s unique but it just ain’t great.
Definitely a unique flavour. Most accurate description is a white freezie in Canada but for those not in the north it’s a creamsicle flavour. The esters bubble throughout the mouth and this has such a punch of flavour but at the same time drinks below its ABV that it provides something different than anyone expects. Tons of tropical fruit, bubblegum, some spice and iodine notes. Delightful!
Might be one of the best and most unique rums I’ve ever had. High ABV but I get some incredible flavours… amazing combination that floods the palate perfectly!
