Great rum from Engenhos do Norte. Round, balanced and simply delicious.
I have tried a few of these and the bar is pretty high. In general very few bottles leave the island and I usually get access through a friend going on holiday 😊 A nice medium dry and fruity rum with very good ABV integration. Good balance between the individual elements and a very long finish. Draws really nice curtains and the empty glass has the most wonderful flavours after a while.
In the nose, we feel at once the sugar cane. By insisting a little, mixed with alcohol, one guesses floral aromas like the rose.in mouth, the aromas of sugar cane impose themselves then arrives a green pepper which lasts. The wood, young remains present throughout the tasting. The final, average, remains on the heat of the green pepper. The wood associated with the sugar cane gives impressions of liquorice. A good rum, rather simple and young, which makes think of Madeira.
Very vinous/sherry nose, grapes, dried fruit, toasty aromas. Nevertheless, the floral Agricole notes such as sugar cane, fresh and earthy do not come up short. In the mouth and finish actually very similar to the nose, but with less fruit and instead more Agricole influence. Sherry lingers here for a long time as well. Also spiciness in the form of ginger, but always accompanied by sweetness from Madeira wine barrels. Pretty round thing!
