    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.

    Auto-translated

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

    Auto-translated

    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.
