    How does this rum taste?

    • Tropical fruit aroma
    • 12-year aging
    • Hints of oak and chocolate

    Borgoe Reserve Collection Rum from Suriname is distilled using both pot and column stills, aged for 12 years. Despite its modest ratings, the rum is noted for its tropical fruit aroma, hinting at dried dates, oak, and dark chocolate. The flavor profile includes noticeable woody and dark chocolate tones, underscored by peppery and caramel notes, although these are perceived as faint by some drinkers. Reviews suggest the rum's complexity and finish may not meet all expectations, with some describing a syrupy, cherry-cola-like taste. Overall, Borgoe Reserve appears better appreciated for its nose than palate.

    "The distillery uses a three column still and a pot still for their production, but after tasting this I believe that at least is the main content in it from the column still. The nose is quite weak. It went a little better in mouth and palate, but the weakness is then back again during the short finish."
