New Grove Bourbon Cask

Elegant rum with a dry flavour experience good in the mouth. Taste intence

Soft, slightly raisiny scent. No alcohol aroma. Very little sweetness with a very long warming finish. Overall a dry rum. In the taste, I recognize just a little raisins and maybe a pinch of spices.

It s no sugar added, unadultered traditional rum, but really not much to say, tried it at the sugar museum ...

niby czuc owoce brzoskiwninke ale dla mnie miałki jakis 2 raz go juz nie kupie

Seduced by a promotion in the store and the chance to experience a new rum, I purchased this New Grove rum.
The aroma features fruity notes, citrus and peach. You can also find vanilla or almonds flavour.
The taste is sweet at first, then a little oaky, a little vanilla.
Finish is short and alcoholic, quite harsh. I think it can easily work its way into fruit mixers.

Bright yellow color. Delicate citrus aroma. Dry flavor.

I was curious about this new aged rum they sold in my local supermarket.
Because I hadn't tasted a rum from Mauritius yet, I thought New Groove would be the ideal starter for less than €30.
Well, was I wrong..
The rum was quite clear for an aged brown rum and there were no significant hints when I smelled it..
The description says it's aged on bourbon casks and that it has notes of vanilla and caramel but I didn't taste anything at all..

After mixing it with cola, which is a shame, it tastes a little bit better.

Since there weren't any reviews yet, I hope my review will prevent others of making the same mistake I made.
Don't judge a rum by it's fancy container or it's brand awareness.
