Habitation Velier Amrut Indian Pure Single Rum (Collection Antipodes) 2015

One member called it a "cherry bomb" and that's a fair start — milk chocolate, vanilla and ripe yellow fruit like mango and peach, with young oak and ginger underneath. Several tasters love the nose and long finish but agree the 62.8% heat isn't fully tamed. Sits somewhere between a caramel-sweet Spanish style and a cognac-ish agricole.

As a fan of Indian cuisine, I wanted to try the Jaggery Rum. I had no particular expectations, but the rum has me from the first moment ih its spell. This nose is really very nice, like the lovely TDLs but with an intense, ripe, oxidative, yellow partly tropical fruit. Kind of in between caramel Spanish style rums and the cognac-heavy Agricole - great blend of sweetness and complexity. In the mouth the profile is similar, with more prominent wood and a note of sweet black tea (Turkish chay) and heavy ripe fruit: peach.

I find the not only interesting, but actually quite tasty. In the nose and on the palate he has etwwas I can not believe, but what reminds me of the rums of Nine Leaves from Japan.

Bonne quille mais manque d’aération. Je le reprendrai dans quelques semaines ! ÉDIT après quelques mois : c’est mieux aéré, l’alcool s’est quand même estompé en revanche cette bouteille reste mal intégrée, ça reste puissant avec un manque de maîtrise. Dommage car sinon c’est un bouquet de fruits tropicaux à la bouche, avec une pointe d’hydrocarbures et d’épices. Pas mal quand même !

Cherry bomb. Reminds me of Chairman’s Reserve Masters Selection but less dry and less spice.

Exciting profile with classic molasses rum sweetness, but also some Agricole hints. Sweet, fruity, with enough wood influence to bring in some depth - the young age remains recognizable, the alcohol is still a little restless, but all in all this is already on a great level.

Neatly made rum, but has a little too many whiskey notes for me. A little more complexity would not have hurt either...

7.2/10

Goes in the direction of Spanish style on the nose, with a nice butterscotch note, joined by floral notes. Lots of young wood, ginger and mocha on the palate. The clear alcoholic sharpness on the nose and palate unfortunately lead to point deduction in the B grade.
