good Versailles profile, but rather on the spicy side on the way with allspice, tobacco, oak. The (quite sparse) fruity notes go towards dried date and dried apple rings. Similar profile on the palate. In the finish toasty-dry

Ugh, it tastes like soap! Or do I just not like licorice?

Strong Versailles. Complex finish with full herbal aroma. Beautiful bottling at a fair price.

I misplaced a few tasting notes a while ago, amongst these was this adolescent Versailles. C: Aged in the tropics or caramel coloured (E150)? I’m not liking this already. N: A blend of Granny apple peel, medium strong coffee, burnt sugar and fumes of petrol. I also get brine, which is typical of Versailles, but here it´s muted. I also get a strong kind of fake sweetness taste that reminds me of bad column still distillation. This make me think that perhaps too much E150 was involved in this single cask. M: Spicy and bitter. Burnt sugar with a sour coffee taste. It differs from Continental aged Guyana pot still rums I’ve tasted lately and that I like so much. There is no freshness here. F: Not long and sour. B: No

Bouteille juste ouverte et immédiatement une odeur de bois et de réglisse en émane. Après plusieurs minutes, un peu de fruits compotés, du pruneau et une touche de vanille. En bouche, c'est très boisé, pimenté et amer. L'alcool est très bien intégré. Finale toujours plus boisée avec du café et du cuir. Un demerara très sombre et marqué par le fut. Ne plaira pas à tout le monde. J'aime beaucoup. Edit : deux semaines après sont ouverture, l'oxydation à déjà fait son effet et le rhum a gagné en gourmandise. Superbe bouteille, un bon Demerara bien dark.

Aromas of tobacco, liquorice and raw wood. The taste is the first to catch the eye, and the taste of soap definitely surprises. Licorice, wood and tobacco follow. The whole thing moves into a longer, herbal and very dry finish.

Very horny Versailles!

Too spicy and poorly integrated alcohol level... A big taste of licorice... Not my thing, this one. The nose is very elegant though

Really dark, spicy reduced Demerara essence! Extremely furry and astringent with many tannins and bitter substances, at the same time fresh after various essential oils as in the sauna or a massage. But for me personally definitely too bitter and intense after licorice but still extremely complex and full-bodied. Wicked stuff.

A very good rum that, if the alcohol were better integrated, could play pretty far up!He is more on the spicy side; but that quite well once the alcohol is tamed!

Tastes like a beautiful old school Versailles. Unbelievable PLV.

On the nose still relatively restrained, on the palate as strong as an ox. Convincing rum. Congratulations to all who call a bottle their own.

In the nose at the beginning raisiny PX notes and iodine. After the first sip, I also get licorice in the nose.This is also found on the palate again, in a viscosity also reminiscent of PX sherry, or here perhaps rather licorice liqueur. Chocolate and bitter-rusty notes are still there, in the finish comes some coffee to it.For me as a Guyana newcomer definitely one of the best I've been allowed to taste so far. But I'm unsure if I like this spicy appearance or if I'm missing some fruit.

Great Versailles! well dirty as I like 🤤 unlike other reviews I find the alcohol pretty well integrated.

Sample problem? Soap of soap of soap...
