How does this rum taste?

  • Complex flavors and aromas
  • Long, warm finish
  • Good price-quality ratio

The 2009 Damoiseau rum from Guadeloupe presents a robust profile with woody and caramel aromas, intensified by sugarcane and roasted notes. Distilled from sugarcane juice using a column still and aged for seven years, this rum boasts a complex palate with peppery, licorice, and vanilla flavors. Despite its high ABV of 66.9%, it achieves a balanced expression when a drop of water is added. The rum's finish is notably long, embracing warm woody and spicy tones, but some users note the alcohol can be overwhelming. Suitable for those seeking an intense, multi-layered sipping experience, though its strong character and cask strength require careful consideration.

"18.11.2023 Another retasting and I stick to my initial score ☺️ --------- Price to quality is very good on this particular rum. The nose is fruity with pastries, spices trailed by llightly roasted wood and caramel. Almost like walking into a bakery on a Sunday morning. The palate is oily and well balanced between the wood, fruits and spices. The finish is long, warm and lightly dry with wood, spices and dried fruit."

"Yes, the alcohol is already pulling properly. In the foreground a woody-spicy nose with dried apricot and some sulfur, reminiscent of sherry. In addition, some blackberry and cherry. But above that spicy wood, cedar and leather. Adds a chocolate note and some green sugar cane.Alcohol is also very present on the palate at the start. Comes salty-bitter with decent pepper, nutmeg and bitter orange. Licorice at the back and increasingly grassy.The finish remains bitter and grassy. At the end, the sugar cane also comes through.Too bad that the alcohol is not so well integrated."

"Caramel blackberry chocolate vanilla brownies on the nose with roasted nuts on the nose, taste then surprisingly quaffable and not too alcoholic for the young age and just under 67%. sweet, bitter and salty at the same time with notes of mocha, fruit bread and lots of spices. very tasty."
