    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members love the expressive tropical fruit and excellent alcohol integration of this 59.6% cask strength Saint Lucia release. Expect caramel and vanilla on the nose with a minty lift, leading to creamy layers of wood, leather and tobacco with eucalyptus freshness. Many praise its complexity, balance and long finish. With 49 community reviews and limited to 270 bottles, it’s a rising favorite for characterful, pot still intensity.

    4 Chairmans im direkten Vergleich: 1. Chairmans 1802 sehr fruchtig, Vanille, zunehmend mehr Gewürz, ausbalanciert, mit der Zeit am Gaumen immer süßer. Viel Bourboneinfluss. 8.5 Pkt. 2. Chairmans Rum&Co Vergleichsweise mehr Früchte, insbesondere Kirsche. Vanille und Süß im Abgang. 8.5 Pkt. 3. Chairmans 2008, Rhumattitude Völlig anders, viel Bourboneinfluss und noch mehr Kokossnuss! Ähnelt einem Foursquare oder Belize Rum. 81 Pkt. 4. Chairmans Excellencerhum Sehe Adstringent, viele Kräuter, Holz, Früchte im Nachklang. 87 Pkt.

    Wow! Rich fruit aromas bring in extreme freshness, plus black tea, wood, spices, subtle sweetness. Very round yet complex, an excellent release!

    Was soll ich bitte sagen? Ein großartiger St. Lucia. Ich bin geflasht 😀🥃

    Eine sehr schöne Abfüllung, ich habe sofort einen Aprikosenduft in der Nase. Verbunden mit Minze und Zitrusmarmelade…sehr vielversprechend. Am Gaumen erst das gleiche Zusammenspiel, welches aber relativ schnell auf dunkle Schokolade, Holz, Lakritz und Piment wechselt. Cremig und intensiv kommt er daher. Der Abgang ist dann weiter auf der schweren Seite mit Holz, Tannine und Schwarztee.
