Forget the tropical Brazil cliché — this is nuts, wood and char in the glass. Roasted walnut leads, one member nails it as fresh chestnuts from the roaster, with old wood, leather and cocoa behind it. There's a faint peaty edge and tropical fruit hiding underneath, but the nutty spine runs the whole way. At 56.6% the alcohol sits well integrated, finishing dry and increasingly charred.

How does Epris S.B.S Brazil 2011 taste?
Summarized by AI from 30 community reviews.
Nutty, woody, charred Brazilian at cask strength Most land around a strong 8 for its intense walnut-and-leather character; a few find it one-dimensional. If you want bright tropical fruit, look elsewhere.

This weekend was very busy because I've been building a new shelf system for my 250+ bottles so my Saturday and Sunday tastings haven't been added :-)

Quite pleasant, but nothing more, definitely not enough for an 8 before the decimal point. Woody, vanilla and cocoa on the nose, better on the palate, chocolate, leather and spices really stand out here.
Review by MarcT
I don't know what to make of this, yet, so I will wait for more details until the second tasting of this 5cl. Not bad, though... However, as my first Brazilian Rum I need to give it more thought. 2nd Tasting: I had a look to see if my blind impression was right: I assumed this to be a Molasses Rum that attempts to be AN Agricole, but is is in fact both. Nice! It makes a sweet, expressive and somewhat wild experience.
Review by Buddudharma
Flavor profile doesn't pick me up at all. Relatively one-dimensional with a strange, nutty note. Alcohol is well integrated.
Review by Dr.Django
This rum is probably my first Brazilian. There's no Copacabana with tropical fruit in the glass here. It's nutty, woody and charcoal. Very pleasant on the palate, a little musty on the attack with old wood and nuts and increasingly charred on the finish. If it wasn't so expensive, I'd get myself a bottle. Thanks for the sample @Jarek
Review by Christoph
A stark flavor profile that you have to like, very nutty, associations with aged cachaca. As if you would get freshly roasted chestnuts from the Italian, only from Brazil.
Review by Skyfly
What really impresses me from start to finish is the really intense taste of walnut. The nose and palate still have slight notes of peat alongside the influence of tropical fruits and spices. The alcohol is really well integrated.
Review by Han
Where it is still restrained on the nose, with strong notes of wood and Mediterranean fruit, it pleases very well on the palate: velvety and oily and beautifully red fruit with a dash of exoticism.
Review by Jarek
S.B.S Brazil 2011is a single barrel bottling with only 264 bottles. The rum is based on molasses and fresh sugar cane, and was produced in 2011 at the Epris distillery. S.B.S Brazil 2011 was bottled by hand at a cask strength of 56.6% vol. This rum is the first pure S.B.S bottling from Brazil. Tasting NotesSmell: Pleasant aromas of chocolate and nuts and a touch of cinnamon.Taste: Initially quite heavy notes of leather and tobacco that evolve into a fruity finish reminiscent of fermented apples and quince.
Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
The nose isn't very expressive at first, so you have to go out and discover it. But once in the nostrils, it takes you on a journey with a lovely palette of sweet, fresh aromas. There's lovely tropical fruit (melon, mango and passion fruit), fresh mint, cinnamon and, above all, a pretty rose candy. I find this nose very interesting and surprising. On the palate, we move away from this delicate nose to heavy notes of leather and tobacco. It's rather dry and pungent, with a hint of burnt wood. The finish is moderately long and warm.
