"This is a wonderful rum. I'm delighted to have had the chance to try it - thank you very much, Stefan! The profile is Port Mourant per excellence. I have the Karaya in my glass at the same time - the similarities are amazing. Despite the difference in age, Silver Seal is much more intense, while the differences in the profile are mainly characterized by the caramel."

"09.02.2024 Nordlichter treffen. Retasting and I stick to my initial score. Opening this one also bacame a masterpiece of work as the Cork broke. Fortunately Stefan didn't give up and after a trip to a decanter and then back through a sift into the bottle, we tried to sniff the decanter and it was out of this world. We tried ti sniff the decanter the next day and it was like putting your nose into a freshly opened bag of prunes. ------------------ Had a nice evening with good friends and a bunch of Silver Seals, some with very nice age to them. This one is very nicely balanced once rested for a while. Woody with dried fruit and spices. I like the light leather, caramel and marzipan on the oily palate. Here I'd say oldies and goodies 😊"

"Very nice and richt bottling indeed. Needs quite some pacience to open up, but after some the you are rewarded with a complex nose sporting dark and woody notes alongside some herbs. On the palate the PM is surprisingly approachable with surprisingly little bitterness, which only comes to play at the very end of the finish. Otherwise a brilliant combination of dark, roasted notes anlingside dried fruits and herbal notes which create a very complex array of aromas. Cheers to Stefan for the sample!"

"Franconian Tasting Gang First of all, a big thank you to MoparRules in the north. Let the impressions sink in once again. I was expecting it to be woody and bitter. But that's not the case at all. What a positive surprise. Simply a very fine wine that very few people will ever have in their glass. You really have to be grateful for that. It's a challenge to be able to balance this out to some extent with MoparRules."
