Wine and port lead here — one taster thought the nose was a winetasting — sitting over a dry, grassy Madeira agricole base with light vanilla, caramel and a woody, tannic grip. Some find it well-balanced with hay and a little ginger; others say it's "just standard" or turns bitter and woody. A rum-juice cane distillate that leans dry rather than sweet.

How does William Hinton 5 Casks Edition (24 Days Of Rum Advent Calendar 2023) 2018 taste?
Aggregated from 23 community reviews.
Dry Madeira agricole with wine-cask notes Middle-of-the-road Madeira agricole. Wine and port notes from the casks are the talking point; most call it fine but not memorable, and one found it plainly bitter.

Review by Timo Groeger
Like the previous rum, this one is also okay but just standard. It tastes slightly of vanilla and caramel, but only slightly. Otherwise it tends towards agricole. I like that kind of thing.
Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
Good smell. Some wood. Some age. Agricole. So far so good. Taste, well balanced. Hay. Dry. Some spices: cardemom and ginger. Wood. Pretty nice. I am enjoying this and its a step up compared to the 3 year old.

Sample no.11 of the 24 days of rum calendar 2023. Nose could have fooled me this was a winetasting :) but yes very much wine and port from the barrels. Palate is a blend of agricole flavours together with the wine/port notes. Unique and not that bad for an agricole rum (not my favourites..)
Review by Johannes
Gar nicht schlecht! Typischer Madeira-Rhum!
Review by Motvind
Doft: Vin, vanilj, ek och karamell. I smaken försvinner mycket av sötman. Vin, en strävhet från tanniner, ek, vanilj och lite karamell. Vinet ligger kvar i en ganska lång eftersmak.
Review by Robert Houba
Sharper agricole - a bit woody, hint of vanilla.
Review by Pavel Ungr, RumRock
Ročník 2023. Hodnotím 7,4 z 10, solidní rum, který nezklame.
Review by Matthias Freynik
Riecht wenig. Schmeckt quasi nur bitter und holzig.
