Rum show pt 2. renegade rum was quite nice. The aged verison with virgin oak was most interesting to me. Tempered the youth. Bally tasted like washing up liquid 💩 rivers rum has a mental abv but brilliant flavour. Molasses based but smells like clairin, palette more caramelly. Hampden overproof batch 2 not quite as nice as batch 1. less going on for me. Maybe its the age? Its 4yo vs the older 8yo sibling.

foursquare gfs fav, paranubes mine.

Ps avoid british made rum. Stick to caribbean #rum

Rum show in london a few weeks back. Paranubes edged the foursquare for me. Didnt get a pic but also really enjoyed the hampden great house. Great intensity of flavour. Paranubes had the cane juice agricole funk, nice cask impact and a feint smokiness from its tequila cask. Touchstone was full power foursquare. Predictably excellent. Found barbancourt 15 watery and boring. Fella on the stand called it refined, I say bland. Epris rum was excellent. So many green notes. Very dry. #rum
