Ich hatte schon viele swell de spirits und bin groĂer Fan derer AbfĂŒllungen, bis dato gabâs quasi keinen Rum der mir nicht gefallen hat.
Meine top Highlights waren bisher
RX13297
RX12160
RX12491
RX10576
Da insbesondere der Swell de Spirits Long Pond Private Garden The Lobster Claw (Cave Saint Seurin) 2006 17yr 66,9% Teil vom Line-up ist der schon extrem lange auf meiner Wunschliste fĂŒr was ich unbedingt probieren will dabei ist, wĂŒrde ich mich wirklich sehr ĂŒber das Tasting freuen und Mika kennenzulernen!
Ich habe auch noch keine groĂen Erfahrungen mit Swell. Habe mal die RX15671 geteilt. Bis heute eins der besten Labels⊠aber der Rum war P/L nicht so doll. Die RX13297 fand ich sehr lecker aber fĂŒr mich auch nicht so spannend wie 2001-2003. Hatte auch noch ein <>H von Swell im Glas der sehr lecker war. Habe noch einige Swell Samples. Wird mal Zeit die zu probieren.
I must admit Iâm a little bit some sort of Swell fanboy.
I had the chance to taste, buy and often double heâs releases.
Itâs been much harder those last month since every swell bottle is sold out within a few seconds.
Iâve really liked his first Hampden (rx10576), the first Foursquare (rx12160), the New Yarmouth (rx12161)and his T.D.L for Le Clos des Spiritueux (rx13297).
I hope Iâll have the chance to win and taste some of those new bottles I wasnât able to catch .
Amazing program with a well-known bottler ! Big props to the RumX Team to pull this off !
I have tasted a few Swell bottlings, however I am still eager to taste more of them !
Iâm looking forward to tasting the New Yarmouth 1994, which is considered as one of the best bottling they have made so far. The Long Pond is also quite intriguing, as well as their new Caroni (Private Garden 15)
From what I tasted so far, here are a few highlights for me :
Hampden 2011 Wonders of the World, one of the best Hampden from independent bottlers made in the recent years apart from Velier or very old aged continental rums.
The Foursquare 2006 (Wonders Series) was quite sophisticated for a Barbados rum from an independent bottler (the quality varies a lot in the bottlings)
