Tasting Notes:

“Colour: amber. Nose: it is a little strong (ha, cough…) but it seems that sugarcane and crushed sesame are running the show this far. With water: tons of pencil shavings, so lead, coal and cedar wood, then ham and macadamia nuts. A feeling of 'bourbon', not a lot of complexities, but balance is perfect at +/-45% vol. Mouth (neat): hot, leafy, brilliant. Very brilliant, actually, even at 68.7%. With water: yeah there, this works a treat, with oranges and just all tropical fruits you could think of, over a bed of traditional oak spices (cinnamon, really) and more oranges. Finish: long, the body getting a tad thin now despite the heavyish strength. Comments: same overall quality as that of the J.M 2007, I would say. Very different from the high-ester rasta rums such as WP, Hamden or Monymusk.”

Note: SGP:651 - 87 points.

“There is strong drying astringency on the initial sip of black bananas and slightly sour pineapple juice. [..] The mid palate evolves with more complex flavours arriving and making this rum a real experience to savour. Some olives and lychees come into play alongside the toffee and vanilla. [..] Even at 68.7% ABV this is quite an easy going sipper. ”-
Note: 4,5

Nose: punchy esters, with iodine, plenty of varnish and a whiff of glue. Aniseed and cinnamon. Some coconut flakes and plantains. There’s a hint of olive brine, as well as some sourness and chilli heat, but gradually it becomes rounder, showing notes of vanilla and caramel. A really nice mix, although – again – it’s not that funky (by Jamaican standards).

Mouth: concentrated but actually quite drinkable at full strength. Pineapples, chalky notes, some grassy touches, with a hint of oil paint and whiffs of diesel. Slightly dry perhaps, but within limits considering the quarter of a century in the tropics. It’s a decent swimmer, bringing out toffee and coconut while keeping the full body.

Finish: medium length, with more fresh oak coming to the fore.  Spices on a background of brown sugar sweetness.

Note: 90/100
