    One of the Best 70’s vatted demerara So much intense flawor from PM looooong palate and finish

    This is a tasting from 10.05.2019 where I went out with a few colleagues for a nice tasting. Notes i have. Very dark and kind of light rum. ABV could have been higher but very well balanced. Slight medicibal touch like cough sirup to it.

    Wow, despite the 43%, the nose is amazingly intense with a beautiful plum compote. Fantastic! The intensity continues on the palate, with roasted aromas, wood and a slight bitterness dominating alongside the plum.

    Po dlohé době vzorek staré demerary. Barva tmavá mahagonová. Hned na první přivonění je cítit spálený cukr, tmavý karamel, kávu ďrevo. V chuti se přidávají rozinky včetně štopek, které přidávaji hořkost v závěru. Krásně jemné, alkohol vůbec necítím, parádní kousek.
