Chamarel Extra Rare (15th Anniversary) 2008
Hazelnut and dried apricot lead here, sitting on a dry, woody base with raisin, orange and a good pull of tannin. It's cane-juice rum but reads more like an aged, unsweetened Spaniard — dark fruit and nuts rather than grassy agricole. One taster called it nutty right through to the finish. At 45% it's surprisingly intense; give it a few minutes to open and the vanilla and cocoa come forward.

How does Chamarel Extra Rare (15th Anniversary) 2008 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Dry, nutty aged cane-juice sipper A well-liked, mature sipper — most call it beautifully balanced and nutty, a step above typical Chamarel. The recurring grumble is that it's simply very expensive.

Pleasant guy. Rosiny fruity on the nose. On the palate then a fullness of vanilla. I quite like it and a relatively nice finish. Very smooth. Letting it breathe a bit is advisable. A mild summer night.
Review by Johannes
Quite intense for 45%. Nutty notes dominate above all.
Review by Jakob
Das Aromenbild ist typisch für Chamarel, der Rum bietet das Geschmacksprofil aber auf einem sehr hohen Niveau an, das in dieser Ausgewogenheit und Fülle bislang kaum den Weg in mein Glas gefunden hat. Somit zeigen sich getrocknete Früchte, Haselnüsse, Kakao, eine Spur Küchengewürze, etwas Süsse von Vanillezucker und Karamell. Das ist vorzüglich ausgewogen und macht Freude beim Verkosten.
Review by Leo Krüper
Very woody and dry. Would have reminded me more of unsweetened Spaniards (Venezuela). On the finish almost nutty. Nice rum, but way too expensive.

Ročník 2008. S 8,6 z 10 patří k tomu lepšímu, co se mi dostalo do skleničky.
