Anam na h-Alba DDL Guyana Single Cask Rum

Most enjoy the dark, roasted, chocolatey molasses profile and unique “Maggi” spice; critics find it too bitter, woody and hot. Consensus: interesting, characterful Guyana rum, but clearly polarizing.

    How does this rum taste?

    Dark, bitter, quirky Demerara heavyweight
    Who is this rum for?

    If you enjoy dark, cask-strength Demeraras with roasted, slightly dirty bitterness, this will intrigue you; if you need smooth and sweet, the 66.6% and wood-driven bite will likely overwhelm.

    Not really suitable for

    Beginners, those sensitive to high ABV, or drinkers who dislike bitterness, strong wood influence, or slightly “dirty” roasted aromas in their rum.

    Teuflisch mit den 66,6% 😈. Die schneiden zu Beginn auch ordentlich. Hat sich die Nase dran gewöhnt, wird man mit vollen, dunkel-würzig-fruchtigen Aromen belohnt. Rosinen mit getrockneter Pflaume und süßlich-saurer getrockneter schwarzer Johannisbeere. Dazu alte, staubige Eichendielen und alter Karton. Dann wieder getrocknete Blutorangen-Scheiben. Das mag ich. Am Gaumen zeigt er sich auch schön vollmundig und kräftig. Eine schwere Süße von Dörrpflaumen und Toffee liefert die Basis. Leicht bittere Holzsäure, Melass und ein dunkler, malzig-röstiger Ton übernehmen, gefolgt von Lakritz und Süßholz. Auch Leder und Tabak mit Vanille sind mit dabei, genau so wie Schokolade und wieder die getrocknete Blutorange. Warum der nicht besser bewertet wird? Für mich ein sehr runder Vertreter seiner Art.

    Lots of roasted aromas, spice and burnt wood on the nose. Raisins and cooked plums are added. Intense, quite bitter and full-bodied on the palate. Great combination of heavy molasses sweetness, Maggi associations and bitterness. Blurred orange comes to mind. Very atypical and special Guyana rum!

    Die Nase empfand ich als sehr vielversprechend und angenehm. Die Schokoladenaromen mit leichter Würze und Orange harmonieren perfekt! Am Gaumen anfangs eine Süsse von gebranntem Karamell, Würze, die dann jedoch schlagartig durch den schlecht eingebundenen Alkohol, Bitterkeit und altem Fass abgelöst werden. Dieses setzt sich dann leider im Abgang auch so fort

    In der Nase sehr nussig, begleitet von Zucker, Gewürzen und tropischen Früchten. Ein Hauch Nagellackentferner kommt noch dazu. Im Gaumen röstig, rauchig, nussig mit sehr schönen Schokoladennoten; leider auch etwas bitter und alkoholisch. Im Abgang wieder schön schokoladig rauchig. Sehr interessanter Rum aus Guyana
