Feels and tastes like a Planteray bottling to my palate - overly sweet and really unsure as to what Sherry cask was used… As its natural colour, it leads me to think it was either a Palo Cortado or maybe a Moscatel - it’s certainly not an Oloroso cask and if it’s a PX Cask then a LOT of the colour was lost in the dilution Nose and taste were kind of one note for me - generic sweetness although not as cloying as the 2 Dos Maderas samples I had. Adding about 10-15ml of water to this adds a much needed bitter oak note that really does help with the sweetness in the dram - I would say the water is a necessity for those who don’t love a massively sweet dram. It kind of still is but that bitter note really helps it along my plate anyways Scores a little better than the Dos Maderas samples but a little disappointed in this one - the last Bristol Spirits sample I had was a delightful Belize 2005 bottling and had high expectations that this was be similar in quality but alas was not as lucky this time round

Expert review by The Fat Rum Pirate
Read full review →It doesn't have all that much in common with the Seleccion de Maestro offering either. It's quite a distinctive rum. This rum definitely offers something different and is certainly one I am pleased to have tried. A hard rum to try and pigeon hole.
