Brennerei Otto Sigl, Wasserburg a. Inn Oritonga Echter Rum
The surprise here is that a German bottler nailed a Jamaican profile most tasters pegged blind. Fruity esters and overripe tropical fruit lead, with baked apple, grassy molasses and a spicy, smoky young-oak edge underneath. Several called it one of the better pours in their blind set. The catch: at 55% a couple found it a touch hot and slightly artificial on the palate.</snapshot> <parameter name="review">Members kept guessing Jamaica and enjoying the funk — a genuine surprise from a German bottler. A few flag it as a little hot and faintly artificial.

Zu allererst einmal ein DICKES DANKESCHÖN an TheDunderHut, wieder bei dem Wird&Blind Set dabei gewesen zu sein. Zusammen mit DomM wurde sich dieser Aufgabe gestellt. Leider kein Einhorn dabei gewesen, aber tolle rare Sachen probiert, an die man sonst nicht so gut rankommt. Einzig die Geschichten zu jeden einzelnen Rum des Spliters dazu habe ich wirklich vermisst zu.
Review by LukaŽiga
7,6:On the nose, esters, solvents, funky, overripe tropical, citrus fruits, baked apple, herbaceous, grassy molasses, roasted, smoky wood, bump into our nosetrils. On aeration, the wood is spicy with allspice, some rubber is out, the molasses is flowery. 7,7:On the palate, the attack is intense, funky with esters, overripe tropical, red, citrus fruits and berries, sweet with roasted wood notes, smoky like pastry, biscuits, sourdough bread, spicy with allspice, as the molasses is herbaceous and vegetal. 7,5:The finish is medium long, dry and furry, tannic, slightly metallic, with roasted, spicy wood and tropical, red fruits..

Weird and Blind tasting @Artur: Erstaunlich intensiver Geschmack! Geschmacklich klare fruchtige, high Ester Jamaika-Noten! Macht richtig Laune!
Review by DomM
Interesting stuff. Intense with some funk and fruity notes. My guess was Jamaica with quite some esters and this works well as a comparison imo.
Review by Fuwi
Weird and blind Tasting - angenehme Überraschung! In der Nase schon sehr Fruchtige Ester, klare Jamaika Anleihen und verspricht ein wenig mehr - was dann auf de Zunge auch gut rüber kommt. Einige Ester, leichter Frucht Kompott und obergäriges Obst mit Einflüssen vom Fass.
