Engenhos do Norte 970 Single Cask Edition 2007
"Very thick and woody" is how one taster sums it up, and that's the heart of it: a Madeira-cask agricole heavy on French oak, dried plum, raisin, cherry and black currant, with tobacco, leather and a whiff of menthol. The cane-juice base peeks through. Dry, spiced and seriously woody — a few felt it could use more fruit to balance all that timber.

How does Engenhos do Norte 970 Single Cask Edition 2007 taste?
Aggregated from 22 community reviews.
Dry, woody Madeira agricole with dark fruit Most land around very good: a dry, spice-and-oak-driven Madeira single cask with dark fruit and tobacco. The recurring catch is how dominant the wood gets, sometimes at the fruit's expense.

Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
A very thick and woody 970 rum. French oak soaked with madeira wine. It's very prominent. I do get a hint of it's agricole base. Lots of winterly spices. Whiff of menthol. Cherries and black currants (dryish). Pretty good. Retry: almost like an old sherry cask. Dried raisins. Currants. Still very very good.
Review by Dre73
Thick, powerful, dirty touch, warming. Very nice one.
Review by Johannes
Schöner komplexer 970, bei dem mir etwas die Früchte fehlen.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Extremely dry, musty and woody, fruity Madeira single cask. Tobacco, cassis, prune, grape & blackberry, lots of wood, cinnamon, subtle tobacco and mint, sandalwood and generally extremely woody notes, dark chocolate, as well as leather and some menthol. You have to like it!
