How does this rum taste?
Deeply roasted and licorice-led, Tamosi Kanaima unleashes classic Versailles power with rich notes of dark wood, dried figs, and complex bitterness. RumX tasters praise its brooding, herbal intensity and bold structure, reinforced by subtle fruit and leather. While its tannic dryness divides opinion, this is a bottling for those seeking a cask strength Demerara experience that doesn't compromise on depth or character.

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
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.
Very horny Versailles!
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.
