How does this rum taste?
RumX members love this Single Vintage 2004 for its balance: vanilla, milk chocolate and raisin on the nose, with caramel, brown sugar, orange and spice on the palate. Several note a recognizable sherry finish and a long, warming close. Often enjoyed neat—and even alongside a cigar—it’s considered less sweet than some vintages. A popular pick with 53 reviews and strong buyer confidence, in a limited 4,000-bottle release.

Have had this one for a while together with three other of the single vintages and this is the first one I open. I think it has a nuanced, complex and a elegant taste of almonds, nuts, chocolate, yellow fruits such as orange, arrack and with a hint of candied figs. The Sherry finish is also clearly recognizable. The finish is quite long. Unfortunately I think it’s a little too sweet even though the ABV of 43% balance the sweetness to a certain grade.
This is a very well balanced rum from the single vintage releases. I have almost all of these vintages and I like them a lot. Like the others, this one is lightly sweet, but not as sweet as the 2005 version. The nose is wonderful and the palate is well balanced between sweet and bitterness and spices.
Pleasant Diplomatico without too dominant sweetness. Beautiful spice and roasted flavors. Fits the balance wonderfully to the cigar.
exciting exception Venezuelan! strong, dark, spicy, barrel bitter and light herbal and dark chocolate notes! very good only it could be a little milder.
