HERR Japoniani HERR

Thé best savanna I tasted so far ! unique!

What a monster, a nose full of everything. Ester and red cherries, red fruits other kinds of. A bit of wood and nice. Palate explodes with fruits, herbal fresh notes of awesome. It goes just a bit into it's aging at the end of tasting. A monster and worthy for being the last.

Wow. Everything happens there. Long Pond Teca is the most similar style I can think of. Just young and fruity. Great stuff, there's so much going on at the back. Eucalyptus, incense, bananas, red cherries, esters, chemicals, meat, smoke. Wow. The price is completely justifiable.

Grilled pineapple, neat ester. Alcohol wonderfully integrated. Simply delicious.

Red fruits (sour cherries, strawberries) and vanilla on the nose, plus chewing tobacco and some menthol. Vanilla, tobacco and barrel on the palate. Long finish. Really good! Reminds me strongly of the CdI Savanna bottled for Gernany (RX308)

30.05.2020 Had a nice afternoon with friends and friends of friends including some nice bottles of rum. Notes Light to medium dark colour. Nose Light wood, ester, fruity, herbs, tar, citrus. Palate Round, fresh, balanced, light wood, ester, faint strawberry, fruity, light smoke, faint caramel. Finish Long, wood, roasted, light smoke, licorice, faint rubber, berries.

Einfach the best HERR für mich bis jetzt. Last HERR > 60th > Herr Blanc > Herrline

Kriste to je jahodo esterová paráda 😍

A superb high ester rum from Reunion Island with extraordinary aromatic concentration. The nose is a subtle blend of medicinal notes (glue, esters, nail polish, solvents) with a fruitiness marked by red fruits (cherry, strawberry, raspberry), fresher, mentholated notes, a hint of olive brine, but also a woodiness that leaves on notes of pepper. The whole is well-structured but very well controlled. On the palate, the rum is powerful, but very greedy. Once again, there are notes of red fruit, but also the impression of harlequin candy that gives the palate a strange, bubblegum-like quality. Spices and other spicy notes contrast with the freshness of menthol and olive, while medicinal, fermented and tannic notes leave their mark on the palate. The alcohol is very well integrated. The finish is long, intense and equally aromatic. Fruit, funky notes, spice and freshness play off each other in a jumble of aromas. The whole is well structured. A Savanna for the good times, sure to delight enthusiasts.

A great rum. A great nose, where the alcohol serves the aromas. The mouth is lively and complicated to decipher, but very successful. At the level of the Jamaicans.

Compared to the Edition Blanc Herr at a similarly high level but still very different. While the edition blanc achieves a lot with very few aromas, here we are back in savanna aroma overflow - but really really good. For those who can taste it: Yes, yes, yes.

Franconian Rum Tasting Gang & Jakob, 2023-07-27 Teil 3: Ja, das ist eindeutig ein HERR, die Erdbeeren sind da, Ananas, Ester. Dazu angenehm würzig und holzig. Sehr komplex, lecker. Gegenüber dem HERR von LMDW etwas zahmer und weniger fruchtig.

Minimal schlechter als LMDW 60 Years und die Restaurant Edition. Da fehlt der Japoniani die Fruchtigkeit. Aber trotzdem sehr guter HERR. Eisbonbon, Minze, Fass, etwas Erdbeere. Alkohol ist gut eingebunden.

Very nice rum in its category 👌

Edit: Tried the new one from the high-end French restaurant again yesterday. Stick to my rating, but unfortunately this one is a little behind. O.k. o.k. o.k. what a great rum. Big thanks again to SaibotZtar for the cool split. The longer it stands, the better it gets in my opinion. I also tried a few drops of water this time, which is rare. All in all a very good drop, but unfortunately it doesn't make it into the top group.
