    How does this rum taste?

    Reviewers love the warm and intense dried fruit and spice notes in Caribbean Rum 1842, with some finding the flavor reminiscent of dark Guyana rums and even festive whiskies. Many mention its natural sweetness, oiliness, and a long, warming finish, making it a good choice to sip slowly or share on special occasions. Despite a few critiques of thinness and sharpness, most find it surprisingly good for the price and worth trying if you enjoy bold, woody rums.

    16.04.2025 retasting with Fabian and I still like it a lot. ------------------ #4997 24.12.2024 Enjoying a sample I got from a good friend. Nose Sweet, intense, metallic, light mint, light cherry, spice, dried fruit, wood, light smoke. Palate Round, oily, warm, medium spicy, dried fruit, light mint, naturally sweet, faint chocolate, light plum, wood, light roasted, faint smoke. Finish Long and warm, medium spicy, naturally sweet, dried fruit, light chocolate, spice, oily, wood, The empty glass has nice caramel, light herbs and prunes. Needs to rest to really open up. Surprisingly good rum considering the price tag.

    Tasting in Blåvand mit der Legende! Toller Rum, sehr warm und intensiv mit Aromen von Rosinen, Pflaume und Gewürzen. Erinnert mich an eine Weihnachts-Abfüllung eines Whiskys, mit 68% ordentlich Bums aber ohne die Schärfe, sehr gut eingebunden und ausgebaut! Danke @kevin für das Sample!

    Brought down by a sharp mouthfeel and more than few off notes (metallic, industrial)
