How does this rum taste?
Most love its rich, fruity New Grove profile, minty freshness and complex, long finish. Critics find the alcohol a bit wuchty and needing long aeration. Consensus: excellent, characterful cask pick.
If you already like New Grove or drier tropical rums and want more intensity, this keeps the fruity, spicy DNA but adds cask‑strength power and extra minty/tobacco complexity.
Beginners, those sensitive to high ABV, or drinkers seeking soft, sweet, immediately easy‑going sippers; the alcohol and dryness can feel aggressive without patience and aeration.

Reifer Mauritius Rum mit mässig klarer Grays Handschrift aber Einfluss der tropischen Lagerung. In der Nase zeigen sich Vanille, Honig, reife gelbe Frucht und Holz, insgesamt etwas kräftiger und wärmer als viele andere Mauritius Abfüllungen. Am Gaumen süße Frucht, Gewürz und einer leicht trockenen Holznote, die Struktur gibt. Einen ticken zu alkoholisch für eine bessere Bewertung. Wirkt solide, gut gereift, ohne große Ausreißer nach oben oder unten.
Clearly a reinvented New Grove profile, close to Jamaican on the nose, ultra-fat on the palate, almost Guyanese on the finish... A truly complex tasting, between sugar, sweetness, fruit, solvents, orange and beautiful spices. Perhaps lacking a touch on the finish to hit 9.3. Superb cask!
