S.B.S Guyana REV
Top review from Jakob:
"Not quite on the outstanding level of the other bottlings from 1994, which could possibly also be due to the lower alcohol content and the associated, somewhat reduced aromatics - but REV nevertheless remains an outstanding marque that knows how to convince constantly."
No. 3 Rockley BBR
Top review from TheRhumhoe:
"A rum whose vintage is often considered a benchmark in the field, and it's easy to see why. The nose is very full and complex, with a multitude of flavors: exotic fruits, floral notes, aromatic herbs, tobacco, spices (ginger, licorice, anise, chili, vanilla, pepper), smoky wood, nuts, caramel, honey, chocolate and medicinal notes form an aromatic bouquet as special as it is detailed, deep and lively. The palate is very elegant and sophisticated. The rum is lively, rich in spices, aromatic herbs and floral notes that extend to honey. Wood, smoke, leather and chocolate follow the complex, fresh palate. Some medicinal and fruity notes lie in ambush on the tongue. The alcohol is very well integrated. The finish is long, dark, bitter, medicinal, woody and slightly herbaceous. There are also dried fruits, leather, spices and chocolate. For a profile of Barbados, this is an original, complete and accomplished rum, with remarkable and delicious flavors."

Top review from DomM:
"Excellent stuff - top notch bottling of the 94 REVs vintage imho. Delivers on dark, woody, herbal and fruity notes on the nose as well as on the palate. My only critic here is the relatively low proof, which manifests in a bit less power on the palate versus other bottlings."

Top review from Jakob:
"Great continental Enmore. Heavy fruit, crisp wood, spice and subtle sweetness form a flavor profile that is absolutely thrilling, even in direct comparison with other Enmores from 1992. Great selection."
No. 1 MEC
Top review from Jakob:
"Clearly more intense than other releases from the 88 Enmore batch. Aromatically fully present with both the dark notes of old Demeraras full of dried fruit, leather, licorice and old wood, plus present spicy notes and some roasted aromas - all in great balance. Very good, one of the top representatives of the vintage."
The Golden Age of Piracy Woodes Rogers
Top review from Jakob:
"If you expect a classic NY profile with lots of fruit esters, you'll be surprised - there's far less fruit bomb here than extremely tasty salted caramel candy. A decidedly elegant potpourri of caramel sweetness, fine minerality, vanilla, oak and subtle cocoa bitterness. In addition, tropical fruit notes, which at no time play in the foreground, but deliver an extremely entertaining play of flavors in addition to the aforementioned protagonists. Great release and a highlight among the 1994 New Yarmouths."
The Golden Age of Piracy Charles Vane
Top review from Oliver:
"Incredibly complex and intense nose - to fall in love! First association was Hampden. Boiled down, tropical fruit, peach and pleasant esters - not too funky. The 38 years in the barrel rounded it out to perfection. Wow, a real explosion on the palate, this is also where the Long Pond character comes out. Perfectly balanced yet complex. Very pleasant bitterness. In the finish, some smoke is added.Outstanding! Absolutely exceptional Jamaican."
The Golden Age of Piracy Samuel Bellamy
Top review from Jakob:
"Relatively relaxed PM profile with spices and dry fruits and nicely balanced green notes. The palate reveals a flavorful complexity of wood, dried fruit, tea, cinnamon, chocolate and subtle pastry notes. The result is an elegant balance between tart wood influences and green spice notes, the delicate sweetness of the dried fruit and pastry notes, and elegant toastiness in the finish. Successful barrel selection!"

Top review from Thunderbird:
"The second Uitvlugt this evening. And this one is very elegant. A very sweet, fruity and spicy nose. On the palate, a subtle woody spicy nose at first, which later changes to fruity. A very pleasant mango aroma and perfectly integrated alcohol..and a lovely long dark finish. The perfect companion in the evening"
Greenheart Versailles MEV
Top review from Jakob:
"Very round profile with the typical Versailles pencil notes. In addition to these somewhat metallic-mineral wood notes, nice hints of tea, subtle sweetness, anise, licorice and yellow fruits. The alcohol is impressively well integrated - the profile is almost easy sipping at this alcohol strength, meaning very balanced, yet aromatically complex at the same time. Excellent barrel selection!"

Top review from Galli33:
"Classic high ester Hampden 😍 Lovely funky nose of ester, glue, nail polish, fruit basket and a bit of wood. Funky, dry, delicious in nose where you’ll find all the notes again. Very smooth finish. Alcohol is integrated very well. The wood is integrated in a nice way and never become rampant. Unfortunately hard to find now… the price tag exploded too…"

"Cracked open the next 3 from the batch I got from my wife. This is a really nice and warming Foursquare. Fruity with spices and nice wood. Price to quality is OK at release but they popped up ppm auction pretty fast."
Paradise #6 (Guyana Stock) Heavy Trinidad Rum
Top review from Jakob:
"Epic Velier Caroni Tasting 2023: Together with cask #5613, the best Caroni ever for me. A little more subtle on the nose, with the full aroma package of the Guyana Stock HTR Caronis on the palate: vanilla, caramel, oak, fresh mint, dried tropical fruits, plus the dirty HTR aromas. You can't get much more than that. The ultimate in tasting and therefore for me the absolute top of the Caroni Veliers."
Greenheart MEV
Top review from TheRhumhoe:
"Very pretty nose, typical of Versailles. Big herbaceous notes of thyme and tea fill the nostrils with freshness, followed by notes of pencil shavings and resinous sap. The oak is discreet, while the spices show the tip of their nose with anise, licorice, pepper and smokier notes of incense. Citrus zest and prunes make way for medicinal notes ranging from beeswax to polish. A remarkably deep and complex nose. The attack on the palate is very pleasant. The oily, refined character blends well with the depth and complexity of the aromas. Flavors of aromatic herbs, tea, pencil shavings and tobacco appear on a more earthy, vegetal bent, followed by a profusion of spices ranging from licorice, anise, cloves, pepper and vanilla. Toasty oak goes hand in hand with leather, which lends a bit of bitterness with the herbs. Molasses, honey and caramel add a little sweetness to this subtle but very complex profile. The alcohol is very well integrated. The finish is rather delicate and refined, but lingers on the palate with herbaceous notes (thyme, tea), dried fruit (grape, apricot), pencil and tobacco notes, oak and caramelized notes leading to molasses. The spices are relatively mild, but tantalize the palate with rather seductive touches of honey, toast and salt. A superb antique Enmore, of which there must be very few left on earth."

Top review from Thunderbird:
"GRF13: I was able to enjoy this drop twice in the glass... from my point of view, this is one of the best continental Caronis I've been able to taste so far. Surprisingly, in addition to the expected dirty aromas, dark fruits are also clearly perceptible. The alcohol is very well integrated. Warm, creamy and soft, it spreads across the palate and unfolds its play of aromas... this continues in a long finish... Top barrel selection"

Top review from Serge:
"Old PM with a nice nose of lots of dried fruit, plum, wood and tobacco. On the palate - as already described in another review - a somewhat disturbing, smoky note. I don't know whether it reminds me of whisky because I read it or because it really tastes like it. But it is indeed a bit annoying if you don't like whisky. In any case, a little standing time is very good for it. Nevertheless, all in all still very tasty for me."
Greenheart Versailles
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"When buying Distilia releases you know that you will spend more than average on your bottle. This one was not disappointing. The nose promises more than the palate can deliver, though the overall impression is still good. 32 year in a barrel has a tendency to leave heavy wood notes and some bitterness and that's what you'll find here. Heavy yet well balanced notes. Be aware that the wood is taking first row 😊 The empty glass reveals even clearer notes."
The Golden Age of Piracy Bartholomew Roberts Black Bart
Top review from crazyforgoodbooze:
"Tasty but doesn't knock my socks off. Surprisingly round for 31y but hardly complex. The overall impression is more Spanish, like an old angostura, but there is virtually nothing of the typical mint and fruit and dirty caroni notes of tdl."
Lime House Caroni 1998 HTR
Top review from cigares :
"A fairly well-behaved Caroni with a warm nose of machine shop and stewed fruit. The palate is deep and warm. The finish is long. A very fine rum, but suffers a little from direct comparison with the Velier single cask (RX1150)."
The Golden Age of Piracy Edward Low
Top review from Jakob:
"For me, the positive surprise from the third Piracy release. The usual profile of long tropically matured molasses rums from ex-bourbon casks comes to the fore here in its purest form. What does that mean? On the one hand, there is nothing new here in terms of aroma. Belize or Foursquare serve a comparable spectrum; nonetheless, an even more tart tonality brings in new echoes here. It is precisely the familiar aromas of caramel, vanilla, oak and spices that are present here in an appealing form. The alcohol is still somewhat dominant at the beginning, but after a little time in the glass it gives way to the other aromas and reveals a good balance of elegant sweetness, oak wood influences and subtle spicy aromas. If this represents the usual quality of Westerhall releases aged in tropical conditions for a long time, I'm excited to see what else awaits us in the future."
Lion’s Whisky (10th Anniversary Edition) Heavy Trinidad Rum
Top review from crazyforgoodbooze:
"Very tasty but also tame caroni. Has something of Haribo cola bottles with smoked sandalwood, some tropical fruits and gasoline. Overall, however, very light and elegant"
Pappagalli
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"10.12.2011 This was a magical evening with two close friends. The location is also serene because you can sit outside where you gmhave a view of the Huangpu River (I used to live just across the river). Notes. Extremely light colour. Nose: fresh, pineapple, light wood, glue. Palate: light, spicy, lightly dry, banana. Finish: medium long, fruits, lightly dry, light wood."
