Rum Albrecht Green Bay Echter Jamaica Rum

Old-Jamaica hunters will want this one on the table — it drinks like a curiosity from another era, and members say so. Cold-fireplace smoke, damp wood and old saddle leather lead, with a dusty, musty "cellar" note that needs air to settle. Underneath sit yellow fruit, a little plum and date. Dry, heavy and idiosyncratic at 54% — the nose promises more than the palate delivers.

Dry, smoky, leathery old-school Jamaican Tasters land on the same word: interesting. A dry, leathery, musty old Jamaican that rewards patience — though a few found the alcohol not fully integrated and the palate thinner than the nose.

A rum from the "Niki's und Arturs Jamaiksnische Aventurien Teil 2" series. A nose of smoke and damp wood, old leather (horse saddle), but also tropical fruit and apple. The palate starts with yellow fruit, then a creosote (cold chimney) note appears. The finish is on wood, ash and yellow fruit. The alcohol is far from perfectly integrated, and the nose promises more than the palate has to offer.

Nikis und Arturs Jamaikanische Aventurien Teil 2. Zu erst Mal wieder ein dickes Dankeschön für die Chance solche Raritäten im Glas zu haben. Um es auf den Punkt zu bringen, war Jamaikanischer Rum vor Jahrzehnten nicht der Rum, den man heutzutage aus Jamaika kennt, denoch sehr interessant diesen zu probieren. Diese sind nicht wirklich spitzenmäßig, aber denoch mehr als Trinkerbar.

Der erste wirklich schwere, alte Jamaicaner im Tasting. Braucht viel Zeit um die muffige Kellernote abzulegen. Dann kommt neben der Schuhsole auf einmal auch Tabak und Sattelleder zum Vorschein. Sehr verstaubter, trockener Geschmack, der mir gefällt. Hintenraus etwas Pflaume und Dattel. Wird mit der Zeit immer besser. Nach Jamaica verortbar, aber wirklich unklar was hier am Ende im Glas war. Ein steinalter Clarendon?

Verkostung von Niki und Arturs Aventurien Teil 2. Besten Dank für die Möglichkeit diese alten Kuriositäten & Raritäten zu probieren! 😊 Nr. 8 Hier ein typischer Jamaikaner. Würze mit etwas Frucht und einem trockenen Keller Geschmack.

No rum is more imitated than Jamaican rum. This is the home of funk, the fruity, overripe-banana intensity that drinkers call hogo, made in the biggest pot stills outside Irish whiskey. When the rest of the Caribbean moved to the column still, Jamaica kept the pot still as its house style, and that stubbornness is exactly why its rum is so prized today.
