How does this rum taste?
Most enjoy its warm, dry, woody-spicy profile and good alcohol integration. Critics find it a bit bitter, roasty and one‑sided versus other Karukera. Consensus: a very good, serious agricole.
If you already like drier Guadeloupe agricoles or darker, wood-forward rums, this is a great step up in strength and complexity, but it won’t convert anyone looking for soft, sweet sippers.
Newcomers, those sensitive to higher ABV, or drinkers expecting sweet, fruity or very fresh-grassy agricole; some may find it too bitter and roast-dominated.

Farbe: Altgold Geruch: Zurückhaltend süß mit schwachen pflanzlichen Aromen. Dabei insgesamt weniger frisch und süß als Cask No. 26. Riecht fruchtig nach Ananas, Birne und gekochter Banane. Zudem Eichenholz und Honig. Geschmack: Zu Beginn sehr kräftig und wenig süß. Beim Schlucken würzig-scharf, dabei intensiv mit viel Honig sowie kandierten Früchten, Karamell und Tabak. Abgang: Honig, schön würzig, kräftig und lang. Trocken-holzig im Nachgeschmack. Fazit: Klasse Rum, in etwa auf dem gleichen Niveau wie das Schwesterfass No. 26. 89 Punkte
Al naso frutti secchi(datteri, prugne) e non(pere sopratutto, ma anche qualcosa di tropicale), pelle, zucchero bruciato, tabacco e legno. Molto interessante! Al palato è caldo, mielato, avvolgente con datteri, caramello salato, floreale, lieve tostatura, pelle, tabacco, violetta, pepato con un finale abbastanza persistente. Una bevuta Guadaloupiana molto buona e affascinante, grazie a Dr.Django. Il voto oscilla tra 8.7 e 8.8
A very nice single barrel with a warm and fruity profile. Lightly spicy and a very long finish.
Etwas bitter und ordentlich würzig. Kein Rum für den nüchternen Gaumen. Holz, getrocknete Früchte, dezente Süsse. Mit Wasser wird er wesentlich gefälliger.
