Dem 2007 ähnlich aber ein wenig fehlt ihn dann doch um an den 2007er ran zu kommen. Trotzdem ein schöner sipping Rum der einen schönen würzigen holzigen mit dezenter süße im Abgang hat.

Immer noch ein Referenz ECS-Vintage nach all dem Output und Hype der letzten Jahre. Toller Rum.

A heavy well balanced rum. A very good example on how to make a first class cask strength rum. Well worth the price.

Le nez est très fruité et agréable il donne envie d’y rentrer. Il s’ouvre de plus en plus et est vanillé, pas si boisé que ça (un peu moins que le ZInfandel à priori), quelques notes de fumé, l’alcool est présent mais pas exacerbé. Le nez est vraiment super frais et invitant. La bouche est assez détonante par rapport au nez, pas du tout fruité mais des supers épices du caramel de la vanille du tabac à la fin vraiment wahou sur la première bouche j’adore +++ le boisé est assez discret et l’alcool pas détonnant. La fin de bouche est différente, chaude, très agréable, assez boisé finalement ma

In der Nase bilden sich zarte Vanillearomen und überwiegend junges Holz! Eine Note von Terpentin ist ebenfalls wahrnehmbar Am Gaumen entwickelt sich sofort ein holziger Geschmack , pfeffrige Noten und leichte Gewürze! Der Rum breitet sich cremig und elegant im Mundraum aus Im Abgang halten sich die holzigen Noten Mir gefällt er!

Nez gourmand et pâtissier avec la coco le chocolat la vanille et le caramel au 1er plan puis les agrumes viennent rafraîchir l'ensemble. En bouche c'est très rond très pâtissier, me tabac et la muscade viennent tonifier le tout puis un côté zeste d'orange très agréable apporte une petite fraîcheur. Finale longue sur le côté pâtissier et les épices douces.

Foursquare 2005, un rhum de la Barbade, le nez de ce jus est boisé et épicé, des notes de solvant, de café, on sent une certaine puissance dans ce rhum mais équilibré, des touches de fruits séchés, et de vanille finisse ce nez très complet, En bouche l’attaque est vive, et savoureuse, beaucoup de rondeur, des notes de torréfaction, de caramel, de vanille, de tabac accompagnent un beau boisé. La finale est longue et gourmande. Un rhum de mélasse très savoureux!

Další z Foursquere, ve vůni dřevitost z Barbadosu, v chuti bourbonové tóny. Je to můj styl rumu, ale nevnímám výraznější rozdíly od jiných - ať už od plnění pro W1 nebo Indialible. Určitě tam budou, jen to nemám tak napité.
