Chairman‘s Reserve Master’s Selection (Salon du Rhum) 2011

8.0/10
Rated by BjörnNi 🥃, FabiDram & 22 more

One taster called it "well rounded and naturally sweet" but lighter than the bold Chairman's Reserve they expected. That sums it up: marmalade and tropical yellow fruit on the nose, then dried fruit, vanilla, licorice and nuts, with a young-wood, roasted edge. A medicinal solvent touch nods at Jamaica. Several found the sweetness creeps up and the alcohol isn't always tidy.

Viele neue Eindrücke. Rauch, Eiche und Lakritz?!? Dennoch ein sehr gelungener Rum. Wie gewohnt ein starker St.Lucia

#4446 02.11.2023 Not too bad but a but light on the profile. Well rounded and naturally sweet. I like my Chairman's Reserve bold and in your face and this one is on the lighter side. Medium fruity and fresh. Palate is oily and has some licorice and nutts. The finish is medium long with some chocolate. The empty glass has a light smoky note and the chocolate is more obvious.

Recht viel junges Holz. Und er kommt noch ein wenig unausgewogen daher. Leider fehlt ihm destillateigengeschmack.

Sainte Lucie propose un large éventail de type de rhums, incitant toujours à découvrir de nouvelles choses. Le nez est ici vibrant et s’ouvre sur une jolie marmelade de fruits tropicaux, accompagnée de fruits secs, de caramel et d’épices douces. La touche médicinale sur les solvants rappelle le profil jamaïcain, ce qui donne de l’arôme et du corps à ce profil réduit. C’est savoureux et doux aux narines. La bouche est ronde et opulente sur les fruits tropicaux jaunes et mûrs, les notes de solvants et les herbes (thym). Le boisé épicé et rajoute du caractère avec ces notes de fumé. On ressent quelques notes de réglisse et de caramel également pour la douceur. Le profil est varié et très gouleyant, semblable à un Worthy Park. L’alcool est très bien intégré. La finale est de longueur moyenne, un peu plus acidulée, amère et tannique. Le boisé bien grillé prend plus de place à côté des fruits exotiques et des notes médicinales, tapissant le palais de son empreinte. Peut-être pas le profil le plus complexe qui soit mais un bon rhum de plaisir à siroter.

Wird mir am Gaumen zunehmend zu süss, worunter die Komplexität merklich leidet. Für mich ein eher schwaches, weil zu austauschbares St. Lucia-Release.

Rather metallic, burnt with a hint of thyme, anise, green pepper, and licorice, very dry and astringent with lots of tannins. The alcohol could be better integrated... in my opinion, the 2005 vintage is significantly better.

Expert review by The Fat Rum Pirate

"If you enjoy the standard Chairman's Reserve range and were looking at something a bit pricier as an upgrade then this is not badly priced at all. I would recommend trying this over the Chairman's Reserve Forgotten Casks. I don't think that offers as much of a progression as this."
