S.B.S French Antilles Grand Arome Bourbon Cask 2019
"Typical Grand Arôme wildness, rounded off by the extra years" is how one member sums it up, and that's the read. Overripe, almost rotting tropical fruit on the nose — pineapple, passion fruit, candied ester sweetness — with a little smoke and a meaty, salty edge on the finish. At 60.8% the alcohol sits well integrated. Several tasters like the profile a lot but note it stays a touch narrow.
The community says- Ripe tropical fruit
- Well-integrated proof
- But: Lacks depth

How does S.B.S French Antilles Grand Arome Bourbon Cask 2019 taste?
Aggregated from 17 community reviews.
Rounded high-ester French Antilles, ripe tropical fruit A well-liked ester-forward release the five years have clearly softened. The recurring gripe: enjoyable and balanced, but a bit one-dimensional, short on real depth.

Review by Martin Ekrt
Vůní je to typická Galeon divočina, ale zakulacená delším stařením. Svou jiností mi to trochu připomíná Clairin. Chuťově je to velká paráda. Extra roky rozhodně pomáhají. Tělo krásně ovocné. V závěru chuť přechází do přezrálého ovoce, uzenost, zakouřenost a taková masná slanost.
Review by Johannes
I really like the profile - but it is certainly very special!
Review by Richard Krupa
Ve vůni výrazné přezrálé až zhnilé ovoce, chuť jemnější než bych čekal
