William Hinton 5 Casks Edition (24 Days Of Rum Advent Calendar 2023) 2018
Wine and port lead the nose so hard one taster nearly mistook it for a wine tasting — that's the five-cask wine influence at work. Underneath sits cane-juice agricole with light caramel, vanilla, oak and a dry, tannic grip. A few found it pleasant and balanced with hay and spice; others read it as just bitter and woody. A 45% Madeira-style sipper with real personality.
- Wine and port nose
- Cane-juice agricole
- Dry, lightly spiced

How does William Hinton 5 Casks Edition (24 Days Of Rum Advent Calendar 2023) 2018 taste?
Aggregated from 23 community reviews.
Dry, wine-cask Madeira agricole sipper Members land middling: the wine-cask influence and dry agricole bite divide people. Some call it balanced with spice and hay, others find it bitter and forgettable. Better than the 3-year version, a couple noted.

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.

Gar nicht schlecht! Typischer Madeira-Rhum!
Review by epicsune 🇸🇪
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 Robert Houba
Ostřejší agricole - trochu dřevitý, nádech vanilky.
Review by Matthias Freynik
Riecht wenig. Schmeckt quasi nur bitter und holzig.
