Ein sehr guter Rum mit kräftiger Schlagseite zu Trockenpflaumen und Rosinen - lecker!. Karamelltöne und Vanille harmonieren gut. Ausgeprägte Konsistenz zwischen Geruch und Geschmack. Im Anhang kommen Tannine dazu. Einziger Nachteil: der Alkohol ist sehr präsent - mit ein paar Tropfen Wasser gewinnt der Rum nochmals an Komplexität.

Wow, ein klasse Demerara. In der Nase überwiegend Schokolade, aber auch Malz und Fass sind zu erkennen. Am Gaumen dann ebenfalls überwiegend Schokolade (dunkle), aber auch Kakao und Holz sind zu erkennen. Alkohol super eingebunden, gefällt.

8.2/10

Fair warning, you have to rest this rum or the ABV will bite your nose and palate. Once rested it is a pretty good especially considering the price tag. The nose is fruity with vanilla, leather and light smoky wood. I also find a very light metallic kind of smell. The palate is fruity with chocolate, vanilla, leather and lightly roasted wood notes. The finish is very long and woody with dried fruit, vanilla and wet tobacco.

Premier Guyana, distillerie Diamond Premier nez "rustique", vieux bois Bouche concentré, rugueux et imposant, vieux bois prédominant, vanille, "orangette" avec côté chocolat noir légèrement amer et orange en fond, enrobé par touche de noisette grillée Côté intense et "sombre", comme le montre d'emblée de jeu la couleur Longueur moyenne Intéressant, inhabituel, en impose, mais trop peu d'arômes au nez

Alkohol leider nicht so gut eingebunden. Auch bei der 2. Verkostung konnte er mich nicht wirklich überzeugen.

Red fruit dominated demerara. Sweet without being sweet. Perfect double cask aging performance.
