    How does this rum taste?

    The Oloroso Sherry Cask Finish rum is crafted in Jamaica at the Worthy Park, Hampden, and Monymusk distillery, and selected by Navy Island. This molasses-based rum uses a pot still distillation process, yielding a 46.3% ABV. Users describe its aroma as strongly woody with undertones of dried fruit, sherry, and caramel. On the palate, this rum presents notes of chocolate, woodiness, and fruitiness, with a characteristic oily texture. While some appreciate the complexity and value, others find the sherry note overpowering and the rum slightly alcoholic and metallic in the finish. Overall, it's noted for its accessible price and respectable quality.

    Buon rum ad un prezzo contenuto. Non ben equilibrata la parte alcolica e profumi poco decisi per quello che cerco io in un rum. La parte più debole di questo rum risiede nel palato.

    A lovely rum especially thinking about the price tag. Low price and high quality. The nose is fruity with ester, wood and rubber trailed by vanilla, mint and a hint of grass. The palate is oily/thick and fruity with wood, chocolate, ester and vanilla. Once rested the is a bit of grass in there as well. The finish is medium to long with wood, fruits and some vanilla. Rest for at least 15 minutes to release all the flavours.

    Spannende und fast schon komplexe Nase. Am Gaumen leider viel zu dünn, eindimensional und auch klebrig…

    WP dominiert klar, Hampden kann ich eigentlich nicht rausschmecken (wahrscheinlich OWH). Insgesamt dünn und eher nichts sagend.
