Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
10.12.1999 Went for a relaxing evening here and they had this exciting rum on the shelf. A very nice place with a lot of wine in the basement. Notes. Medium dark colour. Slightly different in profile. Nose: Wood, grass, light leather, raisin, orange, floral. Palate: Well rounded, fresh, grass, floral, cinnamon, citrus, spice, medium dry. Finish: Medium long, wood, roasted, spice, dried fruit, medium dry. 4.5 of 5 stars which should amount to 9.0 in today's rating.
Review by TheRhumhoe
A 1985 JM aged 10 years. The nose is adorned with a lovely woodiness, melting into notes of dried fruits and exotic fruits. Then comes a flood of all kinds of spices (nutmeg, cinnamon, vanilla, and pepper), notes of leather, nuts (walnuts), and a hint of roasted aroma. After airing, notes of brown sugar add roundness to the nose. You find the JM spirit with the expected indulgence and complexity. The attack on the palate is quite straightforward at first, with a profile very focused on spices, vegetal bitterness, tobacco, leather, and wood. After airing, dried fruits (raisins) and citrus acidity become more present. The whole is homogeneous and the alcohol is well integrated. The finish, quite long, has a spicy and woody profile. Although you feel the agricultural origin, tobacco and dried fruits swirl in the mouth. Clearly a younger and thus more punchy version of this vintage. It remains very pleasant, very accessible to avoid the vegetal overdose of some agricultural rums. Compared to its 15-year-old counterpart, this rum is more direct in its olfactory approach. Overall, it is fruitier, slightly more "green," and more tonic on the palate. The richness of JM is expressed through two rums from the same vintage, two very different profiles whose preference will depend on what is sought. A clear success that the distillery can inscribe in its heritage.
