Levy Lane Tamosi Tiba 2008
Panama fans looking for something weird will get a kick out of this one. It's smoky and dirty with burnt cola, rubber, bacon and burnt-sugar notes over caramel and vanilla, with roasted nuts and prunes. Several tasters double-checked it was really Panama, and one even reached for a Caroni comparison. Medium body, long dry finish. Not hugely complex, but genuinely different.

Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Very unusual Panama! Funky, dirty and intense after cola crackers, bacon, burnt rubber, bicycle inner tube and spices like allspice and star anise.... Almost reminds me of Caroni somehow?! I like exceptionally well and is finally times what else from Panama.
Review by Djehey
Another excellent Tamosi. A bottler to watch closely...
Review by Thunderbird
The rum is well made, with a nice roasted and nutty note!
Review by passlemix
On the nose, it's smoky, with occasional hints of burnt rubber, cocoa and a hint of vichy pastille, the alcohol no doubt. I also have bacon. Haha excellent. On the palate, it has a nice density while remaining hyper sweet, it's lightly fruity, quite spicy. A fine rum that lacks a little complexity on the palate, but for the price you can't ask too much.

I like the intense nose and palate of this rum. There is nice wood in the profile without it being too dominant. The chocolate on the finish is more obvious in the empty glass.
Review by Rodolphe
The nose is pleasant. An unsweetened ron on vanilla, caramel, different nuts. In the mouth it's good but it lacks complexity for my taste. It's very caramel vanilla brown sugar. Thanks Adrian.
Review by Filip Šikula
I really didn't expect this. I double-checked to make sure it was really a panama rum, because I've never had a panama like this before. Technical notes that I'm more familiar with from teinidad. Roots and wood. Taste and aroma and a great finish. Very nice.
Review by Johannes
Very good! A little too much column style for my taste.
