„Da una botte ex-caroni mi sarei aspettato un sapore più marcato di Caroni, ma va detto che alla fine è invecchiato poco. Grande rum, profumato e sicuramente esperti molto più bravi di me sapranno trovarci maggiori sfumature. Molto leggero il sapore inconfondibile di catrame del Caroni. Velier come sempre, grazie alla sua perseveranza con la classificazione triple A, ha rilasciato una bottiglia degna di nota. Velier mi ha dato emozioni che pochi altri hanno saputo fare.“

„Tag 3 im Adventskalender: Mein erster Eindruck war Jamaika, da sich einige Ester im abgedeckten Glas gesammelt hatten. Ansonsten für mich sehr gemüsig, etwas dreckig, an Graphit erinnernd. In der Retrospektive genau das Profil eines Clairin mit Caroni-Noten, aber daran habe ich leider gar nicht gedacht. Spannende Abfüllung, aber keiner meiner Highlights!“

„The short aging is noticeable, when comparing this to its unaged cousins. It still has raw power, but the sharp edges are smoother. Wonderful to sip, and I assume it is also a good mixer.“

„#3 RumXCalendar Blind tasting: In the nose it reminds me on a classy hampden high ester, young wood. In mouth it‘s very elegant, delicious, young with notes of pineapple, mango. The finish is short and woody. Prediction: all in - RA Hampden High Ester…. totally wrong 🙈 Alcohol is integrated well. I can slightly recognize the caroni barrel. Nose: fruity ester, pineapple, solvents, citrus, sugar cane, young wood. Mouth: Dry, delicious, elegant, peat, solvents, oak (barrel), vanilla, roasted nuts, dark chocolate Finish: dry, tannins, astrongend, peat, young wood, vanilla“

„RumX advent calendar day 3. Not a lot of experience with Clairins. From the nose my best guess would have been something Jamaican, wrong about that. It’s very nice in the mouth, fruity and somewhat tarry with a bit of a earthy bitter finish.“

„RumX-Adventskalender, 3.12., blind. Erster Eindruck war: ganz klar Jamaika, kein high-, sondern eher low-Ester. Nicht eindeutig Hampden, sondern vlt. WP oder so. Irritiert haben die doch vegatiblen Noten hinten raus. Hätte eigentlich auf den Clairin kommen können, habe ich doch den 21 Monate gereiften hier 🙈. Nase: Ester und Essig! Nicht ganz so frisch, eher dumpf. Eine leichte Honig-Süße kommt, dahinter etwas holzig. Dann das etwas vegatible, erinnert an in Essig eingelegte Silberzwiebeln. Ganz hinten leicht alter Tabak. Gaumen: trocken und leicht holzig, wieder Ester mit etwas Graphit-ähnlichem und leicht säuerlich. Keine eindeutige Frucht, eher wieder dieses vegatible, pflanzliche. Hinten bitter und kräuterig ins grasige gehend. Im Abgang noch schwarzer Tee. Sehr interessant!“

„Könnte man auch als Essigersatz auf einen griechischen Salat packen. Noten von Gurke und Olive im Geschmack kombiniert mit vergorenen Schafskäse im Abgand. Blind wäre ich aufgrund der Ester in der Nase bei einem milden Jamaikaner gewesen. Von ex-Caroni merke ich hier nichts.“
