Review by Martin Švojgr
Velmi zvláštní chuť, balsamico, koření, mentol. Vše nejspíše způsobeno stařením v amburana sudech z Brazilského dřeva. Tohle je přesně rum, který jeden miluje a druhý nenávidí. Já se kloním k "miluji", protože je to nezaměnitelná chuť.

21.11.2024 online RumRock ze sudu amburana - dub z Brazílie vůně opět brutus - intenzivní, dlouhotrvající, nakonec už jen po ovoci (mango?) Chuť nasladla, po polknuti skoro jako agricole, prijemna

Samaroli Samba Blended Rum 2011 je unikátní blend, který kombinuje destiláty s výrazným vlivem sudů po víně a komplexními chuťovými vrstvami. Tento rum je dílem italského mistrného zpracování. V chuti se objevují tóny rašeliny, vína a koření s jemnými dřevitými akcenty. Vůně je bohatá a zajímavá – kombinuje aroma červeného vína, eukalyptu, ořechů a bylinných podtónů. Kořenité tóny dodávají rumu hloubku a výraznost. Tento blend je ideální pro milovníky sofistikovaných chutí. --- English: Samaroli Samba Blended Rum 2011 is a unique blend combining distillates with strong wine cask influences and complex flavor layers. This rum reflects the craftsmanship of Italian rum-making expertise. The palate reveals notes of peat, wine, and spices with subtle woody accents. The nose is rich and intriguing – merging aromas of red wine, eucalyptus, nuts, and herbal undertones. Spicy notes add depth and boldness. This blend is perfect for lovers of sophisticated flavors. --- Deutsch: Der Samaroli Samba Blended Rum 2011 ist ein einzigartiger Blend, der Destillate mit starkem Einfluss von Weinfässern und komplexen Geschmacksschichten kombiniert.

Die Nase ist reich und faszinierend – eine Kombination aus Aromen von Rotwein, Eukalyptus, Nüssen und Kräutertönen. Würzige Noten verleihen Tiefe und Ausdruck. Dieser Blend ist ideal für Liebhaber raffinierter Aromen.
Review by Mike H.
I tasted this rum when it was released a few weeks ago. Didn’t take any notes back then but I rather liked it. Brazil is an unknown territory for me so it was pleasant to taste this rum.
Review by Émile Shevek
The nose is woody with red and yellow fruits (plums), citrus, tobacco and some flowers, it sounds like an agricultural from Martinique, amazing! The palate is different, there are predominantly spices (cloves, pepper) followed by tobacco and then ending with some floral notes and something woody/toasted. The finish is mild and quite short. The nose is definitely better than the taste. In the empty glass noble wood. (Those who like carnation add 1.0 point).
