    This is a tasting from 06.08.2011 held at a local Spirits shop in Vejle. My notes about this rum. Very dark rum with strong roasted wood notes. Medium fruity with some chocolate, nuts and caramel.

    GRF13: Sample von RhumAuctioneer An der Nase hat dieser Port Mourant fast die gleichen Aromen wir der gestrige 85er Rum Nation. Einfach fantastisch. Am Gaumen ist er allerdings nicht ganz so präsent und im weiteren Verlauf werden die Aromen immer schwächer.. der Abgang ist dadurch ziemlich kurz. Es ist dennoch eine klasse Abfüllung und ein Stück flüssige Geschichte

    Toller alter Demerara. Die 43% gar nicht unangenehm, sondern passen exakt. Röstaromen, Backaromen. Toller Rum, der mich positiv überrascht.

    Un échantillon récupéré au German Rum Festival en 2024. Un nez très doux et plein de flaveurs, de la pâtisserie, du bois amer et comme un parfum de Madère. L’entrée de bouche est un peu faible avec un alcool marqué pour les 46%. Tous les arômes du nez sont présents, mais comme bridés, un peu en retrait. La finale est longue, plutôt fine et élégante, sur le bois, l’amer et les fruits secs. Le verre vide est d’une élégance folle mais du côté sombre. Une très belle étiquette et une bouche un peu décevante.
