    How does this rum taste?

    • Intense coconut and caramel aroma
    • Complex sweet and woody flavors
    • Unique Nicaraguan craftsmanship

    The Rasta Morris Nicaraguan Rum, distilled in 2004 and aged for 14 years, is a cask-strength selection by Asta Morris with an ABV of 64.4%. Notable for its intense coconut, caramel, and raisin aroma, it presents a sweet, coconut-infused palate with woody and caramelized hints. While likened to the Foursquare style, some users find the alcohol presence overpowering. Nonetheless, the rum offers a unique mix of sweetness, nuttiness, and a long, rich finish, appreciated for its complexity and depth. Limited to 257 bottles, this unique, unsweetened rum exemplifies Nicaraguan craftsmanship, often praised for its distinctive blend of flavors.

    "Excellent rum from Nicaragua. I would have blindly put by the strong coconut note direction Foursquare. Intense, but still drinkable and tasty. Deduction is for the not ideally integrated alcohol content."

    "Starke Assoziationen zu Foursquare und Travellers, jedoch viel mehr Tabak und Erde. Ausgewogene, dichte Nase. Für einen ungesüssten Rum viel Süße. Im Mund sticht der Alkohol und reichlich Fassreife. Mir gefällt er, der beste Ron, den ich bis dato hatte. Der Rest der Samples wird eine Cazadores begleiten, dafür ist dieser Ron sicher perfekt."

    "Update: Nut nougat instead of caramel candy factory. Very nutty. Otherwise, blind, I probably would have mistaken it for a Foursquare: Coconut, raisins, very ripe stone fruit, some wood. Very soft and sweet, but quite intense for a Spaniard.In the mouth it is just as intense thanks to cask strength but not as complex. I find coconut again, dried fruit, some caramelized popcorn. The rum is not sweetened and without a sweetening finish, but still the sweet impression remains very present. The 64.4% is well integratedIn the soft finish, coconut and caramel linger very long. In the mouth and finish almost without bitterness, but unfortunately also without deep spice.Nice Spaniard that does not get boring thanks to cask strength. Special recommendation for fans of Travelers and Foursquare."
