Aroma visualization from community tastings
S.B.S Dominican Republic 2007
People who chase dark, roasty rums will find plenty here: charred oak, burnt sugar, cocoa and coffee, with a leather-and-tobacco edge. It's one of the darkest glasses several tasters had seen. The recurring gripe, though, is that at 50% it drinks oddly thin and watery, and the alcohol pokes through more than the flavor. A winter sipper for dark-rum fans, not a crowd-wide pick.
The community says- Deep roast and cocoa
- Very dark character
- But: Drinks thin/watery

Dark, roasty sipper that drinks thin Loved by dark-rum fans for its heavy roast, cocoa and coffee, but many find it strangely diluted and hot for 50%, with a short finish. A drop of water helps.

Review by Oliver
Pleasant, dark and roasty. Despite the 50%, however, too watered down in the mouthfeel. Short finish.

A drop of water releases a lot of flavours.

Prijemny hutny rum, trosku stipne do nosu
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Hätte ganz nett werden können ist aber definitiv viel zu sehr verwässert und wirkt so leider sehr dünn und schwach in der Aromatik...
Review by Necron
Courtesy of RumX. Overall a good rum. Despite the diluted taste, we enjoyed the pleasant spices. I cannot recommend it to new rum tasters, but to experienced individuals I would say try it. Be expected to be surprised by the different taste from what you smell - quite alcoholic and difficult to identify the various flavours. At the end you would be left with a spicy feeling on your tongue in addition to the alcoholic burn, but it does not last long.
Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
Das ist leider gar nichts. Wirkt zu alkoholisch und verwässert zugleich. Ein bisschen schmeckt man das Fass raus, das war's dann aber auch schon. Hinterlässt zwar keinen Schaden an Nase oder Gaumen, aber auch keinerlei bleibenden Eindruck. Schon vergessen.
Review by Filip Šikula
Tak tady se pánůn ze 1423 výběr nejvíc na světě nepodařil. To, že nepůjde o přiklad přijemné integrace alkoholu dává tušil už štipkání na nose. Po napití je toto potvrzeno, kdy je neintenzivnější tón ten alkoholový. Potom teochu vanilky, možná trochu dřeva, ale celkové spíš slabší kousek. Edit, druhý pokus, snižuju na 63 b
