Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
02-09.04.2022 This was crazy week, where some friends and I rented a nice summerhouse on Rømø. The plan was to go nuts for a whole week with different rums without going overboard. The final agreement came to 6 rums a day and then enjoy nice walks or ferry rides during the day. Day 7 Notes Medium to dark in colour. Nose Fresh, Agricole, light wood, spice, sugarcane, light vegetal, faint plum. Palate Round, balanced, Agricole, faint anise, medium spicy, light vegetal, sugarcane, light citrus. Finish Medium long, round, wood, medium dry, light plum, faint anise.
Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
On a un rhum avec une belle robe acajou. On a un nez clairement boisé, mais un beau boisé gras et gourmand. C’est intense, on retrouve également de la poudre de cacao, de l’orange, des épices et de la vanille. Le nez est gourmand, on s’y replonge pour en profiter parfaitement. Il s’agit là, du nez typique du beau rhum vieux agricole dans lequel on aime y laisser tremper les narines indéfiniment. C’est doux en bouche, avec une prédominance sur le bois. Cela a du corps, et on retrouve les notes du nez (vanille, chocolat noir, un léger fruité d’orange sanguine). La finale est longue avec une légère astringence. Perso, je dirai qu’il s’agit là de l’expression même du beau et bon rhum vieux agricole. C’est très beau et bon (plus le nez comme souvent en agricole).
