Von der ersten Nase her hätte ich fast gesagt es ist der dritte Appelton, aber die zweite widerlegt das. Grasig, Leder auch leicht dreckig. Der Gaumen ist nicht meins, verwässert, ca.45%, bitter und holzig. Würde auch auf nen Agricole tippen, oder nen schlechten Caroni.
Ich bin auch wieder bei Agricole.
Nase typisch grasig, kräuterig, aber auch irgendwie fruchtig, Richtung Rotwein.
Gaumen: ähnlich der Nase, aber ist da überhaupt Alkohol drin? Wirkt für mich deutlich verdünnt.
Very first scent reminded me of Barbados (vanilla, bourbon), but then the agricole profile opened up with the fresh, grassy en vegetal notes. Alcohol is either not that high or integrated very well, but I would guess around 45%. Bittersweet woody finish.
Said it before, so why not again: Saint-James?
Sorry for being late…haven’t checked any comment yet
Nice amber to brown-ish color.
Nose: great opening with apples, spices (pepper, ginger, aniseed perhaps)…then wood as a nice background, with a subtle hint of acetone on the finish. As time goes by, it slowly opens up, revealing possibly some coconut notes
Palate: delicate, almost muted in comparison to the nose…still pepper-y and mildly fruity, more like sweet white grapes and coconut shavings.
Nice warmth feeling when sipped…ABV could be on the 54/56%
Finish: medium, with raisins, light vanilla and a touch of spices.
Did I called it yesterday?? For me, really seems a Bajan rum, Foursquare (ECS series?) or eventually Mount Gay.
or the third dose of the Covid vaccine is doing its thing!
