Red Heart Jamaica Rum (Henry White & Co's London)

Thick tropical fruit — pineapple, banana, baked apple — piled on top of vanilla and light wood, with a warm dried-fruit and spice payoff. At a hefty 73% this is a proper "Brett," and how well you handle it depends entirely on the heat: most tasters say the alcohol is surprisingly well integrated, one or two find it too present and a touch bitter and sharp at the back.

The community says
  • Dense tropical fruit
  • Warm spice payoff
  • But: Fierce 73% heat

Wow, this has real power - but the alcohol is perfectly integrated. Excellent vintage bottling! A highlight for me at the 13th German Rum Festival.

I‘m not quite as enthusiastic on this one… 🤔 Indeed lots of power and thick aromas. However, alcohol is too present on the nose as well as on the palate. This limits the score imho. Thanks for the set, Artur!

No rum is more imitated than Jamaican rum. This is the home of funk, the fruity, overripe-banana intensity that drinkers call hogo, made in the biggest pot stills outside Irish whiskey. When the rest of the Caribbean moved to the column still, Jamaica kept the pot still as its house style, and that stubbornness is exactly why its rum is so prized today.
