    Un nez un peu volatil, estherisé, boisé et fruité. Une bouche un peu fermée, iodée avec quelque chose de maritime, pas très équilibrée. Une finale splendide sur l’orange. La meilleure partie de de rhum. Le verre vide est un peu déçevant avec un léger vinaigré. Un beau rhum malgré tout.

    Sehr tolle Gesamtkombo. Ich schmecke nebst den Früchten Safran raus, was mir persönlich sehr gut gefällt. Verbrannte Heidelbeeren. Alkohol dürft noch ein wenig besser eingebunden sein. Braucht Luft zum Atmen. Ein wenig Wasser funktioniert auch, bringt noch mehr Frucht hervor. Fürs Alter noch ordentlich wild. Aber viel Komplexität und Umami.

    Edit: nochmalig verkostet, da ich noch ein Sample gefunden habe, aber leider bleibt die Bewertung. Es gibt m.E. bessere Chairman’s Abfüllungen Franconian Tasting Gang Im Gegensatz zu seinen Konkurrenten finde ich diesen ein wenig zu bitter.

    24.10.2020 Lovely tasting arranged by one of my suppliers of rum. Notes Dark in colour. Nose Wood, tannins, fruity, pineapple, light chocolate, faint caramel, light floral, glue.
