    How does this rum taste?

    Chocolate and caramel-forward profile
    Excellent value for cask strength
    Smooth, integrated alcohol

    Rich chocolate and caramel notes lead in this English Harbour High Congener Series, with vanilla and roasted undertones adding creaminess. The palate brings cocoa, a touch of coconut, and a gentle sweetness balanced by warming spice. Its cask strength heat is well-integrated, while the long, chocolatey finish lingers. Straightforward, satisfying, and often compared to Barbados rums, this limited release stands out for value and approachability. Worth discovering if you enjoy dessert-driven rums with power and finesse.

     very very tasty successor to the velier Antigua 2012. not quite as complex, but almost more drinkable, much darker & spicier, less fruity and an incredibly cool dark chocolate brownie/cookie note. Very cool stuff, especially for the money!🇦🇬🙏💥❤️👌🏽 If it was a little less biting it could almost get over 9.0 just because of the fair price!

     A great rum from ADL. I think it’s great that they now release a high congener rum themselves so that we now don’t need to buy overpriced Velier releases. It’s not possible, at least for me, to distinguish the Velier English Harbour from this one. GREAT RUM !!!

     The first few times I tried this rum, I couldn't do much with it. Nevertheless, I was amazed by the mild 64%! Characterized by caramel, chocolate, roasted nutty and fruit, you should give it a few minutes and add some water so that the solvent note can evaporate. In the mouth it is initially spicy and bitter chocolatey, but hardly any fruit. Sweet caramel, chocolate and roasted aromas come through in the finish. The fruit, I mean mainly banana and coconut, also reappears. Delicious and very good value for money. Hope to see another release from Antigua -> YES!!!
