Silver Seal Haitian Rum 2004
Surprise here is the gap between nose and palate: it smells tropical and sweet — pineapple, vanilla, strawberry — then comes across dry, tart and lean once you sip. Think green apple, lime and a faint metallic-anise edge, with an ester bite that had one taster reaching for a Hampden comparison. Warm and a little oily, but on the thin side.
- Fragrant tropical nose
- Dry and drinkable
- Oily warmth

How does Silver Seal Haitian Rum 2004 taste?
Aggregated from 28 community reviews.
Dry, tart Haitian cane-juice rum, slightly thin Most find it dry, fruity and easy to drink, with a fragrant nose. The common gripe: the palate stays thinner and less fruity than that nose promises.

Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
A while back we had a nice Silver Seal tasting and a great evening ended with me being a bit tipsy from a few reruns 😊 This is a really nice release. Dry and fruity with a light woody note and spices. Warm and oily on the palate and it draws really nice curtains in the glass.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Very drinkable but unfortunately a bit thin & little fruit in the taste that you are already looking forward to in the nose...
Review by Frank
Nose: initially quite alcoholic, once this has faded it comes across as very dry and tartly fruity. Green apple, red currant and somewhat sweeter lime, like kumquat. It becomes increasingly sweet in the direction of sugar syrup and takes on a slightly metallic note with a hint of aniseed. Palate: spicy, dry and metallic. Contrary to what the nose suggests, not as fruity-sweet. Tart green apple, lime and reminiscent of dry white wine or even sake. The spiciness is a mixture of caraway and aniseed. Becomes a little more bitter towards the end and still slightly aniseed. Overall a little disappointing, as it lacks depth and is a little too "Spanish" for me.

Lecker, aber ohne Ecken und Kanten
Review by Joachim Guger
Could easily be mistaken for a Hampden. Very dry, but good to drink. So not my thing, but good as a sample. But a must for Hampden freaks.
