Grays New Grove Royal Rum Blend (60th Anniversary of LMDW) 2007
The palate climbs like a hill: a firm, slightly bitter start, then a fruity spiced peak, and a lemony marzipan close. Expect ripe stone fruit — yellow peach, apricot, mandarin — with vanilla, brown sugar and a gentle oak underneath. At 45.6% the alcohol sits nicely integrated. A few tasters note the body runs a touch watery, but most call this Mauritian a fruit-forward pleasure.

Review by Quentin Leseigneur
A very fine Mauritian rum that is a great fruit compote with perfectly integrated alcohol and a pleasant woodiness.
Review by Harald
Geruch: Fruchtig süß ... riecht nach tropischen Früchte (Papaya, Mango) und Trockenfrüchten (Aprikose), zudem Mirabelle. Weiterhin Aromen von Karamell, Vanille und Zuckerrohr. Geschmack: Fruchtig süß mit Vanille im Mund, wird mit der Zeit leicht würzig. Beim Schlucken würzig mit Sandelholz-Aromen und Schuhcreme. Fruchtige Komponenten von Aprikose und Papaya. Abgang: Lang, trocken und würzig mit Aromen von Leder und Trockenfrüchten (Aprikose). Fazit: Ein toller Rum - sehr fruchtig und lecker. Laut Etikett: Blend of 2007 Blend, 2005 Blend, Acacia Finish, Chataigner Finish, Porto Finish, 1969
Review by Frank
Still quite restrained on the nose. Like a hill on the palate: a strong, bitter start, a fruity, spicy zenith and a lemony, marzipan finish. Surprisingly complex. Very pleasing.
Review by Fabulon
Rhum extrêmement agréable et facile à boire. Au nez comme en bouche, dominante de fruits avec notamment la pêche jaune et les abricots, contrebalancé par des épices légèrement piquantes. Petite amertume en fin de bouche, avec une légère trame boisée. Finale moyenne, très fruitée, un peu poivrée, qui se termine sur un abricot un peu vanillé et rappelle le premier nez. Très bon rapport qualité prix.
Review by Johannes
Obwohl er verdünnt ist, hat er eine schöne Komplexität mit Orange, Minze und tropischen Noten.
