How does this rum taste?
The S.B.S Mauritius Rum, distilled at Grays distillery in 2008 and aged for 10 years, is a limited release of just 281 bottles. Selected and bottled by 1423 World Class Spirits, this intriguing Mauritian rum offers a distinctive profile. On the nose, it presents a sweet, fruity aroma with prominent raisin and vanilla notes. The palate reveals layers of grapes, caramel, and spices, complemented by minty and dark chocolate undertones. The Port finish adds depth without overpowering the original flavors. Despite a high ABV of 55.7%, the rum maintains a surprisingly balanced and smooth character, drawing praise for its complexity and warmth, though some find the alcohol less integrated.

cane juice at something like cask strength is another story. Complex, warm, balanced, iridescent between the red fruity notes and the brown caramel notes. A nice night out, a warm touch…too man samples today
Auburn Aroma: Smells sweet and very fruity raisins and port, while surprisingly mild and round for the alcohol content. Taste: Round and fruity-sweet in the mouth, then becomes spicy. When swallowed, it tastes of raspberry candy and sweets (maoam). Fruity raspberry syrup, port, red grape juice and raisins. In addition, toffee, cloves and cinnamon, pepper and wood. Finish: Medium length Spicy and woody, yet still fruity and vinous. Remains pleasant.
Very nice bottle
Dieses Sample hat mir Joshua von 1423 World Class Spirits bereits vor einer Weile zukommen lassen – vielen Dank dafür. Und auch hier eine sehr ähnliche Nase, wie bei den beiden anderen Kandidaten. Hinzu kommt allerdings bereits hier in der Nase das Portfinish, welches mich sehr an den Worthy Park mit Portfinish von S.B.S erinnert – mit Sicherheit ähnliche Port Fässer :). Das Finish ist auch am Gaumen merkbar, dominiert aber nicht – gut eingebunden. Der Alkohol ist hier leider nicht ganz so gut eingebunden, wie beim NG 2005, steht dem NG 2005 aber in Komplexität und Körper nicht nach. Im Abgang fährt das Portfinish nochmals merkbar auf. Ein ein toller Rum, der mir den heutigen Abend in Hvide Sande versüßt hat. 83 Punkte
