    How does this rum taste?

    S.B.S Barbados 2000 is a limited edition rum from the Mount Gay distillery in Barbados, curated by 1423 World Class Spirits. Distilled in 2000 from molasses using a pot still and aged for 20 years, it presents a complex profile with woody and vanilla aromas. The rum captivates with flavors of tropical fruit and caramel balanced by a spicy undertone. Its high ABV of 53.2% is notable, occasionally critiqued for being overpowering. While woody and smoky notes are appreciated, the blend of vanilla, orange peel, and subtle rubbery hints offers a unique taste. Perfect for collectors, it's recognized for its intricate character and mature depth.

    Just finished a nice evening going through some of the samples we got from 1423.

    Slightly bitter wood notes meet a pleasantly sweet fruit mix. On the nose, I think a bit of Cointreau. For a better rating, the alcohol should not be so noticeable in the finish.

    #6 RumXCalendar Blind tasting: N: peaches, wood(oak), vanilla, toasted, baking spices, M: spicy, dry, delicious, full body, tar(overwhelming), smoky F: wood(oak), vanilla, dry, astringend, warm, caramel Prediction: sound like a barbadosian (with some dips of caroni), approx. 15-20y and 50%…. I was close Nose: (a lot of) peaches, vanilla, baking spice, wood, toasted, orange peal, mandarin, caramel Mouth: delicious, Dry, spicy, roasted, smoky, tar?!?, fruity, rubber, leather Finish: delicious, dry, astringend, warm, wood(oak), vanilla, herbal, toasted, smoky

    quite oak driven mid palate/finish with a decent characterful spirit carrying it. Might have thought old WPL blind. alcohol slightly too present throughout
