Velier Blairmont <B> 1991
People land high on this one but not unanimously: most call it a rich, "gourmand" Demerara full of caramel, coconut, milk chocolate and dark fruit, with the 56% woven in beautifully. The catch several tasters raise is the finish — it flattens and fades faster than the nose promises. A few even mistook it blind for an aged Foursquare.

Aggregated from 52 community reviews.
Rich caramel-coconut Demerara with a short finish Loved for its round caramel-coconut-chocolate depth and perfectly buried alcohol, though several note a short, quick-fading finish and say it isn't quite the peak of Velier's Demeraras.

Review by Oliver
The nose is to fall in love! Sensational rum!
Review by Frank
Wow, what a nose. Insanely intense, full-bodied and simply delicious. Lovely sweet, spicy, complex. Raisin and dried currant with orange and tangerine. A subtle sweetness of burnt sugar in honey, almost floral. Then some vanilla and dry dust, lightly toasted, a bit leathery out the back.Then much spicier and pleasantly woody on the palate, intense at the start but then flattening out quickly. Still complex and delicious. Slightly salty with vanilla and nutmeg. Clearly toasted with a pleasant acidity, some raisin and currant again.Krass!
Review by Joachim Guger
A Velier Demerara distilled on the Savalle column, who can remain objective? Not me.A beautiful nose, you can spend an entire evening with it. Elegant, balanced, cedar as usually only the French can do. Yes, quite similar to a very good Agricole. Wonderful in the mouth as well. Mmmmm, very good. Middleweight, elegant.I would love a bottle, but alas....
Review by Clément Boetto🤤🇫🇷
Excellent rum very round on toasted oak,coconut,caramel,chocolate with a little orange and tobacco.🤤
Review by Mopar Rules
did I mention that Demerara Rules? What a rum! Intense, depth, heavy. The spread between the different aromas and the complexity is amazing. Other than the Port Mourants or Enmores with the taste of dried plums there is a very nice flavor of nuts and a subtle sweetness. Great stuff.
Review by Bob the Drunker
Tried a sample long time ago, still remember the fantastic and explosive polish oil and fruity drove nose, amazing on the punch On the palate is also explosive with massive dark fruits, like its brothers from PM 93, 97, great stuff
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
This is a pretty good Velier. In my mind this is not your typical Velier, there is something different, more rough to this one and I really like that. The nose is pretty strong on the oak, without being too dominant. Caramel, nuts and vanilla follows with a light earthy note with polish on top. The palate sets off where the nose left off. The oak is a bit lighter but there is a smoky touch in there as well. Then lots of fruit, vanilla and caramel followed by tobacco and a hint of rubber. The finish is medium long with a warm touch to the smoky oak and fruits. The only disappointment wa the finish was over so fast. The bottle is very expensive if you find it, but at release the price was pretty good.
Review by Benoit Mahe
A greedy and powerful Demerara. If you like this profile it is a treat. The finish could have been longer. In reality it is very good but this bottle costs a fortune and a very good Foursquare (like Velier, Swells or Nobiliary for example) gives as much pleasure, is relatively easy to find and costs much less.
Review by TheRhumhoe
A rum whose rarity is matched only by its elegance. The olfactory profile plunges us into the heart of the Demerara terroir, with spicy notes, dark notes of coffee and chocolate, a woody note that blends well into the decor, and above all very pretty exotic fruits that embellish the nostrils. The profile is slightly sweet and caramelized, but makes this rum very greedy on the nose alone. On the palate, there is a flourish of spices, woody and roasted notes, chocolate and succulent coconut and dried fruit flavors that intermingle without taking over. There is a harmony of flavors in the mouth that is truly remarkable. The alcohol is perfectly integrated, the 56% bringing character but not particularly felt. The finish, perhaps a little less rich and full than the rest of the tasting would suggest, is a little more subdued. The aromas dissipate rather quickly, a certain warmth emerges but it does not change the register previously described.An intoxicating, complex and sensual rum, which is part of the legend Demerara Velier, and which unfortunately has become a subject of enormous covetousness that exceeds the understanding.
Review by Maxence
Another Demerara pastry 😋 Mouth is even better than the nose with perfectly integrated alcohol and better aromatic concentration.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Incredibly crass DNA in this rum. Would have imagined him pure a little less smoky and burnt, while he also reminds me in a positive way of a very intense strong almost too hot espresso or mocha. In addition, nice notes of dark demerara sugar, glue, coconut and some orange peel in the finish. Really cool stuff but for over 90 points I lack a little more power and complexity.
Review by Jakob
Etwas flacher als der grosse Bruder aus 1982, mehr Klebstoff, aber auch etwas ausgewogener und weniger alkoholisch. Verliert trotzdem knapp das Rennen, weil der ältere Bruder mit etwas mehr Balance aufwarten kann.
Review by Serge
Blindverkostung: schönes tropisch gereiftes Column Profil mit viel Karamell, Schokolade und Holz, das aber letzlich nicht ganz so überzeugt und welches ich auch nicht recht zuordnen kann. Am Gaumen überaschend süß. Super lecker aber nicht oberste Klasse. Danke an Jakob
Review by zabo
Im Grunde genommen auch mal wieder eine Grante aus Jakobs unendlichen Zauberhut. Wiederum in der Blindverkostung. Leider kann dieser aber für mich mit den anderen Sahnestücken nicht ganz mithalten, aber nichts desto trotz. Ein äußerst leckeres Teil.
Review by Jarek
Franconian Rum Tasting Gang & Jakob, 2023-07-27 Teil 2: In der Nase fruchtig, süß, mit Hauch von Klebstoff. Am Gaumen würziger und rostiger, aber immer noch angenehm süß. Der Abgang könnte etwas länger sein. Insgesamt ein sehr lecker Rum, aber blind verkostet schafft er nicht in die 9+ Ränge.
