Tasting notes

Taster Dave Broom

Nose: Dry crackers, but underlying sweetness. Kumquat and pomegranate. Shows a decent layering effect. Sweet/sour with balanced caramelised oak tones. Soft with water, if a little one-dimensional.
Palate: Very sweet. Vanilla ice cream and coffee. A little mango. Tongue clinging, but with an early, zesty bite.
Finish: Flattens a little. Soft.
Comment: Well-balanced and pleasing.

7.5

Taster Martine Nouet

Nose: Sweet with a floral note and a touch of beeswax. A distant echo of toffee trying to cover up the spirity olfactory frame.
Palate: Extremely sweet at first, on the Demerara side like the first one, then getting really bitter. A touch of ginger.
Finish: Drier, bitter, rather short.
Comment: Again, this rum taste, in a sharper and richer version than the first one.
