Review by TheJackDrop
First tasting in peace and quiet with the buddy, on the nose I hesitate between Jamaica and a Clairin. This Olive comes out first, then esters, fruits, smoke... after a while, a vanilla appears out of nowhere, a surprise! On the palate, it's fruit and esters, against a background of Olive. It explodes on the palate, hard to grasp at first, but very gripping. The finish is a little short, showing that this is a young rum after all, but with another 10 years, it could become a folly! In short, you need to project yourself a little :) Nb: the clarin and Mezcal notes of the first nose come back in the glass. A superb discovery that's well worth the detour for lovers of Jamaica, clarin and Mezcal; that's for sure!
Review by cigares
A rum tasted at Rhum Fest Paris in 2024. A rum raisin nose with lots of tropical fruit, esters, spices and pepper. The palate is elegant, with plenty of fruit. The finish could be a little longer, marked by citrus peel. Good value for money here. But don't delay, there are less than 1,000 bottles available.
Review by Johannes
Super exciting! I would have blindly guessed Jamaica, most likely Long Pond. More overripe fruit on the finish, almost reminds me of strawberry from Savanna Herr. Very cool!
Review by LukaŽiga
8,4:On the nose, a pleasant surprise with esters, overripe, fermented tropical fruits like pineapple, banana and strawberry, a few seconds later also lemon joins.A wood is spicy and roasted with sweet pastry, vanilla. On aeration a molasses is vegetal, fruits become candied, the rum is nicely balanced. 8,5:On the palate, the attack is again very fruity, estery with tropical fruits, strawberry covered with honey, joined with citrus like lemon, orange peel, the wood is roasted with caramel, sweet pastry, spicy with vanilla, salty, as the molasses is vegetal, with resting becomes earthy, floral, a bit waxy.Candied fruits and a cherry balance vegetal molasses. 8,4:The finish is long, milder, dry but still round and tasty, sweet with honey, some new stuff showing like notes of rubber, nuts, confectionery with crunchy bread, bitter orange, some cinnamon..
Review by Lot-NAS
Let me start with bottle - I rarely write something about the looks of the bottle but this label is just astonishing and in addition with the red wax capsule (not the plastic fake wax) a real gem to look at. But let’s proceed with the more important part: The nose starts of as a funky Jamaican with some sweet notes. Some wood and a lot of fruits are accompanied by Mezcal (?!). The alcohol is integrated really good, let’s taste it. Pretty strong, I expected something more elegant. On the palate the age is much more obvious. Nevertheless, funky, fruity and a nice smokiness. See details above. The finish is also young and Jamaican with some Mezcal. Overall a really nice drop and I am looking forward to try it in a Daiquiri.
Review by Aussierumfan
An enjoyable rum, lots of Jamaica on the nose that's for sure, esters and tropical Fruits. Not quite so much in the mouth but still good, more tropical fruits with a lingering sweetness which made me think why that could be? A nice everyday rum.
Review by RumTaTa
Young and fresh with lots of esters on the nose plus citrus fruits, kumquat and yeast. The intensity increases on the palate and a hint of dirt is added. Not like the Caroniwerkstall but more like crazy Clairins. Or even better: like really good mezcal - slightly smoky! The finish is slightly bitter, blood oranges and licorice. Not bad and gives hope for further exciting bottlings!

Review by TheRhumhoe
Un vent de fraîcheur bienvenu sur l’île de la Barbade qui propose ici un rhum high esters distillé en alambic Vulcan. Le nez propose des esters élégants sur la colle et des fruits tropicaux généreux en première instance (banane, ananas, citron et son zeste). On retrouve toutefois un côté légèrement fermentaire et pâtissier sur le caramel, les fruits confits et le miel, puis des notes épicées sur la vanille et le piment qui viennent agrémenter ce profil rond, doux et très onctueux. La texture devient très sirupeuse et collante en bouche. Le côté pâtissier ressort avec les fruits confits, le miel et le sucre, qui accompagnent les esters (colle) et le fruité, encore une fois très exotique sur l’ananas et le citron. Le profil est très rond, moelleux, légèrement épicé et terriblement gouleyant. L’alcool est bien intégré. La finale, moyennement longue, se veut réconfortante, chaleureuse et tout aussi gourmande. Des notes salées et de réglisse s’ajoutent aux agrumes (citron), aux arômes sucrés de caramel et aux épices douces (vanille, piment, poivre). Un rhum au profil jeune, accessible et aromatique, avec un rapport qualité / prix excellent.
Review by Thunderbird
Nun muss ich den Jaws auch einmal bewerten, nachdem ich ihn schon mehrmals im Glas hatte. Ich finde diese Abfüllung absolut gelungen. Ich freue mich schon auf weitere und ältere Jahrgänge dieses Rum‘s! Diese Ester und sauerfruchtige Mischung finde ich sehr harmonisch und lecker. Pur, wie auch als Mixer
Review by Schnubbii
Schönes Teil mit viel Estern und leckerem, eigenem Geschmacksprofil. Funktioniert sowohl als Mixer als auch solo gut. Muss ich mir vielleicht doch noch eine Flasche von zulegen...
Review by Eric Frechin
Un vrai petit Jam ce Barbade! A l ouverture de la bouteille, ça embaume toute la pièce et même au delà ! On est en plein dans les fruits exotiques très mûrs , les Esters. Tout ça explosé en bouche, c est concentré et une bonne réduction salivaire s impose. La finale est toute aussi exubérante, et dans la longueur
Review by Jakob
Great complexity, on the nose still with plenty of fresh fruitiness, glue, wood, spices, heavy sweetness. Tart and spicy aromas are added on the palate, which is somewhat at the expense of the fruitiness and introduces a gentle but recognizable astringency on the finish; the profile is pleasingly broad and offers a lot. A great release and a promise for the future of West Indies rums.
Review by Master P
Cool twist from Jamaica and Barbodos, initially funk and fermented fruit. Very sweet on the nose. Then on the palate comes strong alcohol parried with honey, barrel and fruit again. The finish is over quickly but quite successful for sipping comfortably.
Review by Oliver
Blindly, I would definitely have guessed Jamaica here. Very nice, funky rum that's fun to drink. Unfortunately, it falls off a little in the finish and disappears too quickly. Nevertheless, a delicious rum and an exciting experiment from Barbados. Great value for money.
