Kirk and Sweeney XO
Top review from Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓:
"A great start to the tasting evening! Of course, this is unmistakably a Dominican, but an unusually strong one, without the alcohol being noticeable at all. A few drops of water make it even more accessible, with apricot and barrel notes in balance. Not my preferred style, but certainly drinkable and therefore recommended for special occasions - if you don't have to watch the pennies ... (bottle price now exorbitantly high)"
Ron Esclavo XO Cask
Top review from TheJackDrop:
"Quite a classic aroma for a bourbon-fired solera. Well-integrated alcohol, fairly thick, lots of aroma, a note of vanilla, wood and candied fruit, quite strong on the finish. A very fine discovery."
Ed. 015 Captains Choice XVIII
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"Had two tastings this weekend and Très Hombres was the first one. This rum kicks just the right places and I needed a drop of water to release more flavours. The oak is only there in the background, but I like that on this powerful rum. Spices, chocolate and coffee are more in the center. Lovely rum and very rare i found out. "
Ron Esclavo XO Cask
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"05.08.2022 A nice afternoon with other rum geeks and an evening visiting a few bars. Notres Dark in colour. Nose Light wood, vanilla, earthy, sweet, light honey, dried fruit, light caramel. Palate Oily, light wood, faint smoke, sweet, light honey, cinnamon, light caramel, raisin, light orange. Finish Long and warm, sweet, wood, raisin, light caramel, faint chocolate."
Puntacana Club XOX 50 Anniversario
Top review from Tim :
"A mild aroma and taste of smoky cask, caramel, chocolate, raisin/red wine and vanilla. Slightly sweet, moderately complex, a little smoky spiciness, but very round and harmonious. A Spanish-style rum that deviates somewhat from the standard and has a strong woody and earthy tobacco character. Until around 2016, this rum was labeled with a port wine finish, after which it was said to have been aged in American and French oak barrels. No idea if the current version still saw port casks, but some red wine is hinted at in the profile."
Cubaney Gran Reserve Centenario
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This is a great rum from Oliver & Oliver and I have just had it once more. I have tried to leave the glass for the next day and then give it a good whiff only to discover even more notes. A wonderful well balanced rum with spices and oak at its heart. A bit of oak smokiness on the day after in the glass. None the less a very good price to quality. "
Ed. 010 Captain’s Choice XXI
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This is a solera method rum set at 21 years and a very good one. It needs to rest for at least 15 minutes before you give it a go or you'll only get the alcohol. You may also want to add a few drops of water after which the flavours are really set free. The nose is alcoholic after poring but after a while it settles and you get a fruity and vanilla mix with smoke on top. This palate is nice and complex with chocolate/cooa followed by fruit, caramel and butterscotch. Oak and some smoke ends the experience. The finish is extremely long and warm with a fruity and smoky end. "
Opthimus 25 Años Malt Whisky Finish (TOMATIN)
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This is a retasting and I'll leave the old comment and change the points 😊 This is a malt finish og their normal 25 and you definitely get the barrel finish. The nose is sharp in the beginning so leave if for 15 minutes ad you get rewarded with fruits, vanilla and caramel. There is a bit of earthiness about it. The palate is mild and well rounded with a lot of tropical fruits, berries and grapes topped with vanilla and oak. The finish is medium to long with a sweet stickiness followed by fruit, cocoa and caramel."
Ron Quorhum 30 Aniversario
Top review from Stefan Persson:
"It’s one of the better ones from O& O, maybe because that Agricole has a part in the blend. The finish is quite long and dry. The nose is fruity, sweet and round with aroma of citrus. At the palate and during the rather long finish it’s fruity and round with a good balance between the sweetness and dryness together with flavors of vanilla, honey and citrus."
Ron Quorhum 30 Aniversario
Top review from BTHHo 🥃:
"What is in the smell, you will also find in the taste. In terms of texture and strength, the aroma and taste are perfectly balanced, so the flavors are also highly concentrated, which is great. Cedar wood, leather and chocolate dominate. Licorice, bittersweet, a hint of acid in the aftertaste 👍😁"
Unhiq XO Unique Malt Rum
Top review from Stefan Persson:
"A little too sweet to get a higher score, but I like it anyway so it will have a place at my Spanish shelf further on. It’s sweet and fruity with an aroma and flavor of vanilla. At the palate and during the medium long finish it’s also somewhat rather complex."
Collectors Series Dominican Republic No. 8
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This is also a nice release. Once rested it releases nice flavours and I like the warm oily palate with light fruit and caramel. The finish is very long and warm and it draws really nice curtains in the glass."
S.B.S Dominican Republic
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This weekend was very busy because I've been building a new shelf system for my 250+ bottles so my Saturday and Sunday tastings haven't been added :-) This one is very sharp and I left it to rest for 30 minutes which only reduced the sharpness a bit. A drop of water and another 15 minutes of rest took the top of the sharpness and released more flavours. Price to quality not so good though. "
Dominican Rum
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"#4825 26.08.2024 A nice evening with both old and new faces in Odense. Nose Fresh, round, light wood, dried fruit, light chocolate, clove, faint caramel, strawberries, faint grass. Palate Round, light oily, light wood, faint roasted, berries, light nutts, light citrus, spice. Finish Medium to long, fresh, round, light wood, berries, faint caramel, light citrus, light nutts."
Ron Barceló Imperial Premium Blend 40 anniversario
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"Retasting and leaving the original note 😊 This is a pretty reasonable rum that could do well for deserts in my mind. The nose starts out with sweet caramel and fruits followed with vanilla and light wood. Tha palate is lightly dry with fruit, caramel and spices. The lightly dry palate also serves up ginger nuts and tobacco with some oak. The finish is medium long with oak and raisin followed by licorice and some tobacco. Price to quality is kind of OK thinking that this is an anniversary release."
Opthimus 25 Años OportO
Top review from cigares :
"A slightly clashed nose, a little alcohol, Port and sweetness. Spices and vanilla. Very spicy on the palate, still with Port. Correct length. A good rum, even if it lacks depth and watts. Wood, smoke and Port remain in the empty glass."
Vizcaya VXOP
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This is an OK rum for sipping and also a good rum for beginners. The nose has orange and maple whe poured and once rested for a while you get brow. Sugar, nuts and cinnamon. The palate is kind of light and sweet with oak and vanilla and a bit of nuts. The finish is medium long with oak and cinnamon."
S.B.S Dominican Republic 2012
Top review from Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓:
"An der Nase wird man gleich vom unverkennbaren Port-Muff (ausnahmsweise positiv konnotiert!) begrüßt, am Gaumen typischer spanischer Stil mit deutlicher Portwein-Wärme, süffig! Ich könnte mir vorstellen, dass dieser zugängliche, unkomplizierte Rum bei vielen Rumfreunden, die einem Finish nicht ablehnend gegenüberstehen, Anklang finden würde, auch der Preis ist ok."
Dominican Rum (Madeira Wood Finish)
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"27.08.2022 Going through samples at home. Notes Medium dark in colour. Nose Light, sweet, light wood, faint smoke, fruity, banana, Madeira, light chocolate. Palate Light, round, light wood, naturally sweet, fruits, banana, Madeira, light caramel, faint chocolate. Finish Medium long, light wood, fruits, light caramel, raisin, light babana, Madeira. Extra note. I used to drink a lot of Madeira in my younger days and the flavours are there and so is the sweetness."
Sauternes Finish
Top review from Tim :
"Interessanter Geruch, noch nie gehabt zuvor.. viele süße Aromen und Früchte, aber inzwischen nehme ich eine deutliche Haselnuss/Nougat/Milchschokoladennote als dominant wahr. Mit etwas Fantasie kann man auch Joghurt riechen. Holzige und röstige Noten sucht man vergebens, dafür bekommt man ein (etwas zu) süßer Rum mit Nuss, Frucht und Wein. Recht komplex an der Nase und einzigartig!"
Dominican Republic
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"At the price tag this is a nice rum. It has to rest for a while or it'll bite you. Once rested it is full of fruity flavours alongside smoky oak. There's also a bit of chocolate and licorice hidden in there. Overall a good rum and worth the price tag."
Opthimus 21 Años
Top review from cigares :
"Un rhum de bonne facture avec des arômes très nets. Le nez est entier, comme un dessert au caramel, avec des épices. La bouche ressemble au nez, des arômes assez simples mais très agréables. Un bon rhum dans l’ensemble mais il manque des watts, de la profondeur et de la complexité."
S.B.S Dominican Republic
Top review from RumTaTa:
"Second tasting: very pleasing but the taste is within the expected range, except in the aftertaste I detect a honey note today (+1) Nose: not very exciting and alcoholic Palate: strongly spicy and quickly changes to bitter, burnt sugar Finish: focus on the barrel Solid Dominican rum without any great special features."
Louis Santo
Top review from cigares :
"Un rhum de 18 ans avec un nez avec des pruneaux et des fruits secs en plus du caramel. La bouche fait la part belle à des notes de rôti, de cèdre et de la prune. La finale est assez longue avec du rôti, de la vanille et du cèdre. Un rhum bien meilleur que les 7,8,12 ans car il possède bien plus d’arômes et de complexité."
Ron Esclavo XO Cask
Top review from Thunderbird:
"It seems to be extremely sweetened! This sticky sweetness masks almost all the flavors... only roasted nuts and alcohol are still perceptible... I could imagine it in mulled wine"
Kirk and Sweeney 12 Years
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"Another nice tasting finished, this time with rums from the Domenican Republic. This one was better than the 18 year old version. Vanilla and butterscotch (to some extent) dominate this rum. A very gentle and uncomplex rum, but at the price tag pretty good. "
