8.5/10

In contrast to the RX9406 I had in my glass before, this is a typical Guyana representative. The profile is slowly picking me up more and more each time. This one is more on the woody and herbal side. The alcohol is well integrated and I find it very drinkable.

8.4/10

A very woody nose. A hint of sweetness and caramel. A hint of strange soap. Same sensation on the palate. Very warm and woody. A double sensation, heavy and greedy at the same time. Caramel, licorice. Almost like a bourbon (very woody). A bitter finish. Finishes with a hint of spice and light pepper. Leather and earthiness. And good length. This rum could have been crushed by the wood. It's very woody, but greedy and pleasant. Very cool.

Well, this is a beautiful piece of wood lightly soaked in rum. It smells of wood, glue and a hint of what you might call soap. On the palate goes the first intense expression of barrel, wood and leather. It pearls pleasantly in the mouth and the finish is tremendously long. Lovely.

The predominance of herbs, and in the taste at first bitterness, which quickly passes and the aftertaste is mild. And the colour!

The 2004 vintage is not my favorite. Too much licorice, molasses and herbs.
