Aroma visualization from community tastings
Chairman‘s Reserve Master‘s Selection (Single Cask Exclusive for Germany) 2010
Most tasters land in the "very good" camp: a lovely tropical-fruit nose (mango, pineapple, guava) with caramel and oak, then a hard pivot to a dark, dry, heavily spiced and woody palate. A few call the wood and pepper too much to chew on, and several note the 62.3% could be better integrated — a couple drops of water opens it up. That John Dore pot-still smoke and "medical bandage" note divides people.
The community says- Tropical fruit nose
- Very long finish
- Bitter woody palate

Fruity nose, dark spicy oak-heavy pot-still Loved for its tropical fruit and long finish, but split on the palate: fans call it big and characterful, others find it too bitter, woody and a touch hot.

Review by Buddudharma
Messebewertung Village 25: Schöner Chairman mit irre gutem PLV. Ester, Früchte, Holz, Gewürze, alles da. Alkoholintegration nicht optimal, könnte aber auch den Messe-Rahmenbedingungen geschuldet sein.
Review by Boletus
Once again, St. Lucia delivers an enormously high quality in the glass, considering the price. The tropical fruit basket with the natural basic sweetness of brown sugar and molasses in combination with the not exaggerated, toasty-smoky oak spice is a delight for the nose and palate. Unfortunately, this Master's Selection is a little less powerful and does not have quite as long-lasting esters as cask #0420063008 (Kirsch Import), but it is round, drinkable and has a very well-integrated alcohol content.
Review by Serge
Messebewertung Village Nürnberg 2025 Super solider Chairman‘s mit tollen tropischen Fruchtnoten (alles dabei von Mango, Guave, Banane, Papaya bis zur Ananas), Rosine, Gewürz, Karamell und viel Fass. Toller Rum.
Review by Werni
Notgedrungen hatte ich die ersten Schlucke dieses Tropfens mal aus einem Tumbler und die haben mich begeistert. Im Nosingglas hat der Alkohol die Aromen überschattet. Steinigt mich, aber von den 3 Master's die ich hatte, hat dieser mich am meisten begeistert. Richtig schöne Nase aus tropischen Früchten,süßem Karamell, Eiche und Gewürzen. Und als erstes dachte ich an Port Mourant, da ich hier auch wieder diese alte Mullbinde in der Nase habe, und das recht intensiv. 😀🙈 Geschmacklich zeigt er sich von der dunklen Seite, mit kräftiger Würze,Holz, Röstaromen und Rauchigkeit, dazu ne gute Priese Pfeffer, begleitet von süßem Karamell. Ein paar Tropfen Wasser machen ihn zugänglicher, wenn man möchte. Der Abgang ist unglaublich lang, wahnsinn! Richtig gleiles Zeug mit einen sehr eigenständigen Profil und zu einem klasse Ausgabepreis.

Finish Medium to long, wood, roasted, light tannins, fruits, light mango, light spicy, light dry, spice.
Review by Thunderbird
The nose of this St. Lucia is beguiling. Sweet/sour fruits (berries), combined with caramel, wood and a little vanilla. Very promising. On the palate this play of aromas continues at first... but then it changes to the dark side. Extremely bitter, spicy and woody, it's quite chewy. You have to like it, it's a bit too much for me. Dried plums appear late in the finish
Review by Christian Rudt
Sehr schöne fruchtige Nase. Das macht viel Spaß 👍 Am Gaumen dann vorwiegend karamellig-würzig, die tropischen Früchte rücken etwas in den Hintergrund. Im Finish etwas pfefferig-scharf und leicht unrund aber durchaus ansprechend. Insgesamt kein perfekter aber ein sehr guter Rum zu sehr gutem PLV.
Review by Bene37
It is difficult for me to discern. The profile alternates between wood and fruit with esters flashing up again and again. It's not boring for a second, but conversely it's also very diffuse. Therefore, it doesn't quite want to pick me up, but conversely can be "rediscovered" again and again... For me, St Lucia often resembles a ride on the razor's edge, which often succeeds, but doesn't quite fit for me here. 87/100 or 6/10
