St. Nicolaus Professorado Caribbean Elixir

Caramel and vanilla up front, with a sweet, slightly rough body and a clear alcoholic edge at only 38%. One taster picked up plums, orange peel, pepper and roasted coffee, calling it more woody than other Eastern European rums. Most find it drinkable but nothing special, and a couple felt it landed closer to a young whisky than a rum.

5.4/10

5,8:On the nose it is quite intense right after opening the bottle. We can scent soft pepper, plums and raisins from the fruits, vanilla, roasted coffee and dark chocolate. Seems quite balanced on the first impression. 5,5:On the palate, there is caramel, then orange peel and pepper, nutty, vanilla and a little fruity. Of course, alcoholic... More woody than competition from Eastern Europe. 5:The finish is a bit woody and alcoholic, quickly wanes. Edit:19.8.26

I quite liked it on its own. In my opinion a capable rum and better than Venezuela. The taste is sweet with tones of vanilla and caramel.

Very sweet and alcoholic in taste. You can drink it but it's nothing special.
