Nobilis Diamond No. 34 (TAST'TOE) REV 2006
Give this one time in the glass and it opens right up — that's the recurring note from tasters. It's a dark, thick Guyanese REV: wood, burnt sugar, cocoa, coffee and licorice, with plum and raisin underneath and a faint glue edge. A few catch some bitterness and tannin late. Winter-evening rum, more spicy and roasted than fruity, and the 57.4% mostly sits well.
The community says- Dark roasted depth
- Cocoa and licorice

How does Nobilis Diamond No. 34 (TAST'TOE) REV 2006 taste?
Summarized by AI from 29 community reviews.
Dark, woody Demerara for cold nights Most tasters land in the high 8s: a dark, roasted, woody Demerara with cocoa, licorice and dried fruit. It needs air, and a couple wish the alcohol were slightly better integrated.

#4772 10.07.2024 Sampling a bit at home. Nose Wood, light roasted, dried fruit, plum, light anise, light glue, spice, light caramel. Palate Balanced, wood, raisin, anise, light floral, light caramel, light medicinal, plum. Finish Medium to long, wood, raisin, prunes, light caramel, faint glue. The empty glass has some herbs and chocolate to it.
Review by Thunderbird
Again a very good 2006 REV. It needs time in the glass and then develops its potential . He is more on the spicy and strong side . In the background are easily perceptible fruit and sweet notes. After the 1994 REV's my favorite vintage of this Marks.
Review by Johannes
Nicely balanced REV from 2006. The vintage has real potential, but could use a bit more aging time.
Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
Very dark this one. Any e150..might be. Nose: pretty acidic. Sour cherries. Red wine. Red fruits. Oaky. Interesting. Taste: much thicker than expected. Sweeter too. Syrupy. Cherry. Raisins. Port. Peppery. Cloves. Chocolate. Glue. A pretty winterly rum. More layered than initially expected. Good stuff.
Review by TheRhumhoe
An excellent modern-day Demerara rum. The nose is full-bodied, intense and rich in dark aromas of all kinds: from smoky wood to roasted notes (mocha, dark chocolate), from warm spices (licorice, anise, cinnamon) to roasted and malty notes, as well as burnt sugar, molasses and cola. The fruitiness is heavy on prune, accompanied by floral notes on a very fragrant black tea. It's a class act that envies nothing of last century's Enmore. The attack on the palate is exquisite, sticking to the palate with its fruity and floral flavors (aromatic herbs, dried fruit). The aromas are highly concentrated. The sweet, caramelized notes soften the palate against Demerara's darker notes (mocha, dark chocolate, wood, roasted notes and warm spices). The alcohol is very well integrated. The finish is long and warm, round but rather heavy and slightly tannic. A profile reminiscent of caramel and cola candy emerges, in contrast to the coffee, leather, spices, wood and roasted notes. A superb bottling from Nobilis that allows you to enjoy a lovely nectar on a rough winter's evening while staying warm.

06-11-2025 - Rate 8.5 25-09-2025 - Rate 8.5 31-07-2025 - Rate 8.7 Another great Diamond from Nobilis. REV mark equals dark, thick rum with lots of flavors. And this one does not disappoint. In the nose I have wood, spices and brown sugar. Plate says wood, roast, spice and a hint of licorice. Aftertaste wood and slight hint of glue. My first time tasting this one. Have samples and can’t wait to try it again. 06-02-2026 - Rate 8.5
Review by Tom Buteneers
The bottle has been open for quite a while and I like it a lot. Herbaceous roasted wood, spices with anise and licorice, a sweet side with some chocolate notes and a woody semi-dry finish. Only downside and the reason that it can’t make the jump to the 9+ level, is that the alcohol could be integrated better. Looking forward to some future 2006 REV releases.
Review by DomM
2nd place. Very, very nice REV profile.
Review by Philip M. 🇧🇪
01/11/2025: sample received from Stijn. A very nice REV from 2006. I love this style of rum from time to time, especially during the colder Winter months. Give it enough time in the glass and you will be rewarded, because this needs time to open up. Tasty juice!
Review by Stijn Zino
Just a very good rum! Unfortunately does not hit me as something unique otherwise I could give this a higher score. Extremely roasted, woody, caramel,... From start to long finish very enjoyable. Alcohol integrated very well. This bottle is not going to last long!
Review by Filip Šikula
My first encounter with REV 2006, so I don't really have anything to compare it to. I smell a sweet profile with very intense wood in the aroma. On the palate I smell wood, sweet notes and a hint of soap. The finish is long intense and closed with a bitter note.
Review by Gigi Balestra
I really love this 2006 REV - dark notes of wood, leather, tobacco, roasted coffee and dried fruits. Some (not unpleasant) bitterness in the background, balancing the overall profile. Salty caramel, dried herbs, drops of vinegar. This is a great daily drinker if you prefer heavy and dark spirits. The only downside is when I compare 2006 with its older brother and true monster REV 1994. Especially in a parallel tasting. Which is normal, due to aging differences and probably some other. But still remains a better bang for your hard earned buck. In my book, this is a back-up bottle worthy selection. 92/100
