Das ist heute auch wieder eine rel. schwere Aufgabe.
An Nase und Gaumen viel Holz, Röstaromen, etwas Vanille/Gewürze. Aber auch ein paar leicht dreckige Aromen, wie man sie bei einem Caroni findet.
Mit einem Tip tue ich mir schwer. Könnte Richtung Panama gehen (Bellamy) oder Barbados (FS ECS).

Hi all,
My first sip: it’s Jamaica.
Second: Clarendon. I estimate 15-20 yo
If I am wrong, tomorrow I will have milk instead of rum :crazy_face:

Ich hab zwar schon mehr mals TDL gesagt, aber ich probiers nochmal. :laughing: Obwohl mir auch ein Guyana oder Agricole in den Sinn kommt.
Das Dreckige ist auf jeden Fall präsent,gepaart mit eine gewissen floralen Frische.

Honey golden; nice thick legs coming down on the glass

Nose: mild glue/acetone, with a pinch of wood and yellow fruits in the background (apple and peaches possibly).As time goes by and the oxygen does its thing, I get more nutty flavors, as well as more prominent citrus fruits.

Mouth: definitely more fruity, again with peaches and orange peels upfront…there are some spices coming along (vanilla from the barrel I guess, and maybe ginger). As per the ABV, I guess it’s around 57 or so

Finish: medium, with orange peels and dried fruits.

Really hard to guess, this one, for me…wild guess: Barbados or Saint Lucia!

@Oliver : i have hard time believing that any rum lovers out there do not know this wonderful platform!!! :smiley:

Ich gebs auf.:laughing::see_no_evil:

Apparently tried it about a year ago, did not recognize it now. I didn’t really care for it back then so it seems, since I scored it at only 67 :see_no_evil::sweat_smile:
Will probably be a bit higher today, but still not really a fan.
