Albert Michler Distillery South Pacific 2010 Fiji

Well-liked once you give it air — the recurring note is that this needs time in the glass or all you get is heat. Let it sit and it opens into coconut, milk chocolate, vanilla and a little orange, with a sweetness that surprises people at this proof. At 68% it hits hard, and a few tasters say the finish is short for the strength. Column-still Fiji, more polished than wild.

South Pacific od Albert Michler Distillery představuje zajímavé aroma, kde dominují citrusy, vanilka a karamel, s jemným dotekem kokosu a kořeněných tónů. Celkově je vůně svěží a sladká, propojující tropické a kořeněné prvky. V chuti je znatelný dubový a čokoládový základ, s příjemnou vanilkovou a kořenitou příchutí, která doplňuje ovocné a třešňové akcenty. Toto spojení sladkosti a dřevitosti poskytuje vyvážený a komplexní chuťový profil. English: The South Pacific from Albert Michler Distillery showcases an intriguing nose with dominant citrus, vanilla, and caramel notes, accompanied by subtle hints of coconut and spice. The aroma is fresh and sweet, blending tropical and spicy elements seamlessly. On the palate, the rum features a pronounced oak and chocolate base, with delightful vanilla and spicy flavors, highlighted by fruity and cherry undertones. This combination of sweetness and woodiness provides a balanced and complex tasting profile.

Ve vůni je cítit kokos a čokoláda, v chuti je dost alkoholu..přijde mi to až moc..už se to chuťově pomalu blíží pálence jako je slivovice..závěr je dlouhý, mě to trochu připomíná kapky na kašel… Popravdě moc necítím chuť Fidži, jako byla v Plantation Fiji…

Hier haben wir einen etwas umrunden Fiji aus 2010. Sehr schokoladig und insgesamt eher auf der alkoholischen Seite. Bei längerer Verweildauer im Glas wird er immer Columnstiliger. Grundsätzlich kein schlechtes Pridukt aber der schlecht integrierte Alkohol macht alles ein wenig kaputt.

Pro mě poměrně neprobádaná destinace v tomto případě na nose spoustu kokosu, čokolády, ale taky spousta alkoholu. V chuti výrazná sladkost a kokos a alkohol. Záveř dlouhý, kokos cítím ještě dlouho po dopití.

Aged rum 

Avg Rating 8.0/10 over 16,000 Rums

Aged rum is where the spirit earns its complexity. In a tropical warehouse a barrel loses 6 to 10 percent of its contents to evaporation every year, which is why an 8-year Caribbean rum can taste deeper than a 20-year Scotch. This page gathers every rum on RumX that has spent real time in wood, with community ratings to separate the genuinely mature from the merely dark.
