Mount Gay Black Barrel

Røget på tungen, sød i duft og fyldig eftersmag. God til dem der normalt nyder whisky.

When I can find this is always keep a bottle of this around.

I prefer my rum to taste like rum and not whiskey/boubon. To me it just had too much of a whiskey taste for my liking.

The classic coconut on the nose. The taste is dry oaked coconut with a short pop of toffee, which quickly subsides. A tiny bit harsh in the alcohol for the proof, but still a very nice rum if you appreciate a "real" Barbados rum.

Бочка, сладкие специи, тропики, чуть лекарств.

Кратко: аромат интересный, рот скучный!

This is nice rum. Both beginners and intermediate drinkers could appreciate the sweet vanilla-toffee smell and strong but sweet taste, the nice acidity and tardiness which bourbon barrel brings. But there is also sweetness of molasses and the specific alcohol rum taste. It looks like match in heaven, but sadly it is lacking. One glass is nice experiment, but with second one you start wondering why would you want to drink more. You can get the bourbony notes better with some nice bourbon and the same with rum notes. So Black Barrel worth keeping for taste exercises? No, but it's worth the try if you stumble upon a nice price.

I think this really grows on you. At first it seems a bit strong and harsh on the throat but then soon disappears and you really enjoy it. Great sipping rum for the price and a splash of water or cube of ice might help the first few sips.

Geruch nach Früchte, Zucker und Alkohol.
Geschmack ein wenig Vanille, Birne, Holzaromen, Zuckernote, Alkohol.
im Abgang ein wenig feurig, dann ein klein wenig Holznote und mit ein ganz wenig Süße am Ende.

Fazit: ein solider guter Rum, etwas stärker mit 43%, 7+

Velice příjemná chuť, rád ochutnám další kousky této značky.

Good. .rum
