Review by Frank
7. Tag im Weihnachtskalender. Blind! Komplex und irgendwie lecker. Hat mich total an einen Guyana mit Oloroso- oder Armagnac-Finish erinnert. Würzige und auch fruchtige, komplexe Nase. Ordentlich Schwefel. Dunkle Früchte wie Brombeere, Kirsche, getrocknete Pflaume und getrocknete Aprikose. Insgesamt gedeckt, Leder und Vanille, vielleicht etwas Marone. Ja, und Brandy oder Sherry. An Gaumen holzig-bitter, dann etwas fruchtig. Sauerkirsche, Brombeere, Cassis und ein Hauch Limette, hinten etwas Lakritz, salzig und röstig. Ganz gut!
Review by Vincent D
Au nez, c'est d'abord très boisé et épicé. Je sens des fruits compotés, presque une odeur de Calvados. En bouche, toujours le bois, des tannins, du poivre. Du fruit en fin de bouche. L'alcool est très présent. Le sucre aussi. A l'aération, la bouche est plus sèche encore, presque astringente. Malgré tout, c'est très agréable. Belle découverte. Édit : alcool très présent. Si l'alcool était mieux intégré, ce serait un rhum excellent. Edit2: foutu finish sherry. C'est acté. J'arrête les rhums qui ont séjourné au contact du raisin :)

I love the rare releases from Rum Nation because they usually never disappoint. This one is no exception and you get a lot for your money. The nose is fruity and woody with vanilla, chocolate and nuts. If you leave the empty glass for a couple of hours and then nose it you'll be in chocolate heaven. The palate is lightly sweet and dry, complex and balanced with spices and dried fruit with chocolate and a hint of tobacco trailing. The finish is medium long and warm with wood, chocolate and raisin.
Review by Johannes
Sherry Finish ist gut integriert und nicht zu dominant.
