Bristol Classic Caroni Trinity 1989-1992-1994

A beautiful, deep expression of Caroni Rum at 54% Nose: Powerful notes of tobacco, vanilla, old & oaky bourbon, antique wood polish. Leathery, not unlike an old, heavily sherried whisky. Palate: T

Silver Seal Enmore 2002

2nd best Enmore ever Amazingly intense, balanced and fruity - then comes in the dark chocolate, coffee, mocha and some oak, burnt molasses. One of the best examples of a D

Enmore 1995 Guyana

Best Enmore I've tasted So intense, so smooth despite the high %. Simply amazing! This is the KING of Demerara's for me - dark chocolate, espresso coffee, spices, molasses, r

Kill Devil (Hunter Laing) Trinidad 1998 Caroni 18-Year

A powerhouse of Caroni flavours Very intense, superb mouthfeel, and yes - after the initial almost sherrycask-like notes mixed with the fruitiness of Caroni, you quickly get both oak

Tornio Distillery Routa Premium 1988

Bristol Classic 1974 Trinidad

Liquid Mahogany - in a great way! This grandpappy of all Caroni's from Bristol Spirits is a true beauty of rapidly disappearing Caribbean rum history. Tropic-aged 34yo bottling from ca

Kill Devil (Hunter Laing) Guyana Enmore 25-Year

Stunning At 46%, it might need some umph according to some, but the taste is impeccable. Liquid mahogany - in a very fine, good sense, combined with spices and

Kill Devil (Hunter Laing) Cuban Sancti Spiritus 1999 18-Year

An honest, real lighter style Cuban Rum at its best This is what Cuban (multicolumn) Rum tastes like unless it is sweetened and adjusted with sherry etc. It is a golden delight, tasty even if a bit ligh

Plantation Xaymaca Special Dry

Nothing to complain about, nose is more Jamaica high-ester than taste Non-sugared from Plantation - What a delight! And it IS a nice product, albeit not an ester-bomb as one might expect. Nose does have that hefty ester

Tanduay Centennial Dark 20-year

Best Pinoy Rhum This one shows unusual development and taste amongst Pinoy rhums. It is by far superior to others I have tried.

Bristol Classic Guyana 2003

Easygoing, lovely Diamond Demerara Rum This reminds me slightly of the "El Dorado" rums in that it has some orange peel and spicy notes in the taste - but of course this is 6x more intense

Bristol Classic Barbados Rockley Still 1986 - 2012 26-Year

What a Rum! The sherry finish may smoothen out the typical "Rockley still" pine-sap and tar a bit, as does the 26 years of sitting in a cask (earlier younger vers

Tanduay Mini Oak Wood 18-Year

One of the finest examples of Pinoy rhum - in a small cask! This is a hispanic-style, easy-sipping pleasant rhum that delivers nice fruity notes and ends with oak and tobacco. It is not very sweet, and is a rea

Edmundo Dantes 25-Year

Sweetened, smoothed with additives To me this is highly overrated. It's a hispanic "rum" with added stuff (sugar, possibly sherry wine other) I believe from the taste. Typical produt so

Edmundo Dantes 15-Year

Sweetened, possibly other additives also Not my cuppa tea - sweetened, raisiny and not a true Rum. Should be sold as spiced rum.

Ron Zacapa 23 Solera

Seriously worse every year - sweet nothings I cannot believe this "rum" was once marketed as world's best: Its cheap coloured alcohol with plenty sugar added. Nada mas. I would not serve it exce
