William Hinton Edicao Limitada 2018
Fresh cane, lemon candy and a metallic, fermented tang hit first — one taster pegs the palate as closer to high-end grappa than rum. This unaged Madeira agricole is bottled at a fierce 69% straight off the column, wildly floral and herbal but strict, acidic and a little funky underneath. Water is non-negotiable. Loud, raw and divisive.
The community says- Intense cane character
- Floral and herbal
- Keep in mind: Fierce 69% heat

How does William Hinton Edicao Limitada 2018 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Raw, floral 69% Madeira agricole, love-or-hate Reviews swing hard — one loves its grappa-like floral intensity, another finds it dull next to Paranubes or Savanna. The metallic, sour edge and 69% split the room.

Dégustation au Rhum Fest 2025. Un Rhum blanc agricole de Madère bien inhabituel, en brut de colonne et fermentation naturelle. 👃 & 😋 Beaucoup d'intensité, d'arômes de canne, de consistance et de complexité. Notes amyliques de citron acidulé, de bonbon à la banane, notes métalliques (de l'appareil de distillation ?), fraîcheur de canne, côté herbacé et frais évident, poivre, canne endémique assez terreuse.

very special and fierce. Cheese and a lot of musty, austere, metallic and sour vinegar / compost notes on the nose, later discreet banana, honey and blackberry in the background... taste then also very strict, much acidity, metallic bitterness and slightly salty. in the finish then some grapefruit, banana and blackberry, but there you have to concentrate very much on it and perceive the notes. something borderline in my opinion... in the daiquiri dominates then unfortunately this cheesy, very metallic and compost-like note... I do not like well...
Review by Lukas Jäger
Great and unusual white rum. Many floral and fruity aromas, which come despite the high alcohol content round. Especially on the palate it reminds me strongly of (high-quality) grappa. Again, a good example that even re-aged rum can be very exciting!

24.6.2025 Casa Havana Prague Smells slightly citrusy Taste is scary, very strong, it's 69% At first it burns the taste buds
Review by Pavel Ungr, RumRock
Vintage 2018. With 8.0 out of 10, it's a very good bottle, though not the top of my list.

Expert review by The Dunder Hut
Ok, please hear me out. This is not bad, BUT, we have so many nicer options of white rum of the type. Paranubes, a lot of the lontan and other savannas, this is just hte dull and rather uninteresting version of it.
