The Nectar The Nectar Of The Daily Drams ARC 2020
Chocolate praline, black cherry and near-mushy ripe banana, all wrapped in heavy virgin-oak char and cask spice. This 3-year Ghanaian cane-juice pot still drinks bigger and darker than most agricole — several tasters would have guessed molasses blind. The wood is firmly in charge, and at 57% the alcohol runs hot. Give it air and it opens into nutty, dried-fruit sweetness.

Aggregated from 30 community reviews.
Bold, chocolatey Ghana rum with heavy oak People like the unusual chocolate-and-dried-fruit profile that reads more like molasses rum than cane juice. The catch: the virgin oak and heat can dominate, so let it breathe.

Review by Volkmar Weber
Crisp fresh, banana, some leather, tobacco, - an unusual profile, distinctive and different. Very drinkable. Nice creamy chocolate note - would have guessed blind rather molasses rum, hardly grassy notes, which are typical for sugar cane juice distillate.
Review by Johannes
I find the rums from Ghana really exciting! This comes with the typical Ghana profile, but seems much older than the 3 years. Nice and round, yet strong character. Really good!
Review by chu guevara
A good first impression on opening the bottle, well worth opening.
Review by Rare Akuma
The nose is indulgent, sweet and rich in spices. It sports aromas of caramel and extremely ripe, near mushy, banana. Then black cherry and lots and lots of cask spice. After a good while a snap of vinegar breaks through and the sweetness gets broken down into a bready profile with notes of breakfast cereal and sesame buns. Would not have guessed agricole via the nose. Cask-driven in the mouth. Nutty sweet and near-burnt caramel, followed by banana, dried fruits and almost overpowering cask influence. Wood char and accompanying smoke in the spotlight, with a tail of hay. The finish is a sweet-bitter juxtaposition. Crème fraîche with a mouth-watering amount of vanilline vs. smoldering, charred wood. When first tasting this rum I did not like it at all, and found the cask to be incredibly overpowering. With more aeration it’s better, but the virgin oak is still firmly in the drivers seat.
Review by Sebastian.W
The nose starts of buttery and caramelised with notes of vanilla and dried fruit. It continues with liquorice, tobacco and some grassy agricole notes. The first sips are dominated by notes of dark chocolate, vanilla and dried fruit. Later, it becomes peppery and more fruity, with only a hint of agricole. The finish is short with notes of dried fruit and some tannins. Overall a decent sip with quite a lot of natural sweetness.

Powerful, tasty
Review by JohnnyCuenta
Nice profile of fruity/boozy chocolate pralines, but way too hot. Alcohol too present.
