     Despite the age they have mastered a very smooth complex rum. I just had another go at this rum today and I'm really happy to have a bottle and backup bottle of this last of its kind. Fruity, sweet and spice nose and a palate that's both complex and extremely smooth. The palate is different from the nose and surprisingly good. Spices mix with, mint, tropical fruits and woodiness with a hint of marzipan. This is the last bottling before the distiller closed their doors. Distilled in 1972 and bottled in 2019 makes this rum 47 years old and a worthy one to close down on 😊

     Very good rum, but too reduced. Compared with the 2014 edition from RhumHouse, which is 47% and 54%, the reduction shows the loss of aroma and power of this exceptional rum.

     Pour un rhum de 1972, c'est plat, ça a pas de relief. Ça coule en bouche comme de l'eau. Les saveurs sont pas très marqué.
