Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes by Tim F
Nose
Rich and full, with golden syrup, Demerara and a hint of treacle. Some caramelised cooked fruit aromas. Reassuringly weighty oak in the background - polished mahogany notes. Hint of cinnamon, over-ripe oranges or orange liqueur and bitter dark chocolate.
Palate
Rich, without being sickly. Amazingly smooth, gentle texture - like being stroked with a silk glove. Chocolate velvetiness on the palate, with the creamy oak spices emerging again (as with the Anejo) alongside some citrus notes to counteract the syrupy sweetness.
Finish
A sweet cocoa caress, with shimmering spices.
Comment
Extremely classy stuff, with each element of flavour crystal clear and yet perfectly integrated.
Judges' Comments from The International Cane Spirits Festival 2007
Nose of raisins, molasses, vanilla, caramel and banana; flavors of vanilla and caramel with orange and almond; very balanced, smooth and clean, lingering finish.

Very smooth and easily drinkable. Needs no mixer. Highly recommended
Tried it for the first time and loved it! Great molassaes and maple syrup flavors. As a southern boubon fan this rum fits into my taste profile. Others mention this as learning on rum. I'll have to agree. Also for the price it's a great value for a classy drink - neat.
I received this rum as a gift for my birthday and I love it. The taste is well balanced and sweet enough. It goes very well with a teaspoon of brown sugar and a slice of orange and lemon. Definitely a must have.
I normally drink English Hr but when I saw this one on the shelf next to it I decided to try it. Very smooth. I will definitely buy another . But English Hr is still the smoothest I''ve ever had
Very, very good - good to sip and contemplate - an excellent produce
