    This rum is a top notch when it comes to flavours as well as complexity and balance. Perfect ABV integration and lightly dry with nice fruits and roasted wood. The spices only enhances the overall profile. I really like the coffee on the finish and the empty glass is wonderful even after several hours.

    Fantastic PM! My favorite of the 89!

    Tasted at the same time as the Silver Seal Demerara 1974 and compared unfavorably. Fresher but far less complex. A nose of old leather, bitter orange and creosote. An astonishing palate with fresh almond, smoke and caramel. Very long finish. Much less powerful and complex than the 1974 Demerara. Also weak compared to the Velier SVW 96, but hard to shine against this monster. Thanks Thomas for the sample.

    Wow is the old, wow is the beautiful!Nose: complex and intense. Pleasantly woody with nice dark fruit and a subtle spiciness. Woody acidity with maple syrup and some Maggi. Moist pipe tobacco to go with it. Cherry and grape and some orange with dried apricot. A slightly vinous undertone. Palate: elegant and full-bodied. Super round wood for its age. Malty toast, sweet and sour treacle, light nutty bitter notes from pecans. Wood acidity and newsprint segue into dried apricot, tr. date. Rear light anise and black tea.Great flavor curve on the palate.
