Swell de Spirits Jamaican Rum High Ester Unaged (Rhum Fest Paris) 2024

Olive brine and ripe pineapple lead here, with lemon zest, overripe banana and a medicinal ester edge sitting right behind. This is an unaged Jamaican blend — several members read Hampden, New Yarmouth and Worthy Park in the glass — bottled white at 58%. The palate turns oily and buttery, fresher than the punchy nose suggests. Long, fruity, faintly salty finish that plays as well in cocktails as it does neat.

A rum tasted at Rhum Fest in 2024. Lovely aromas marked by fruit, especially citrus, particularly lemon. The palate is lively at first, then everything falls into place. A touch of olive comes through on the finish, which is rather long for this type of rum.

Notes taken at Rhum Fest 2024, Quick notes and a bit heavy palate, sorry :) We have here: a beautiful jamaicain, a rather confusing blend as it mixes olive, fruit and light esters. A rum: quite buttery all the same, it made quite an impression on me Finish: medium (but given the palate, it's hard to be precise), fruity I really enjoyed it!

8.1/10

A resolutely Jamaican blend, with a fine sense of integration. The esters are present, as are the very ripe fruits, but that's not all. The influence of Worthy Park and New Yarmouth can be felt, adding roundness. Interesting.

Après un premier essai à l’assemblage jamaïcain avec le rhum de la série Arcade, Swell remet le couvercle mais avec un mélange plus aromatique et exubérant. Le nez, focalisé sur les fruits tropicaux (ananas et banane entre autre) et les agrumes mûrs (citron), à un joli ton médicinal sur les esters et la colle, mais aussi une pointe de saumure d’olive et de notes végétales, ce qui le rend assez frais malgré sa puissance aromatique. L’attaque en bouche démarre en trombe avec l’olive, le côté végétal et esterisé. Les agrumes sont très présents (zeste de citron), de même que les fruits exotiques mûrs qui font preuve de gourmandise. La réduction à 58% est la bienvenue ici, permettant aux arômes de s’émanciper et au jus d’être gouleyant. La finale est de longueur moyenne, avec les mêmes marqueurs du nez et du palais qui reviennent avec harmonie et enthousiasme. L’ensemble est fruité, végétal et phénolique, on garde une certaine intensité mais aussi une relative douceur qui offre beaucoup au profil. Un joli blend entre Hampden, New Yarmouth et Worthy Park, plaisant à boire mais qui fera merveille en cocktails.
