Two sort-of new rums by The Duchess: Uitvlugt 27 and ‘Savannah’ 19

Enmore Alpha & Omega 1988/1990, casks 40, 42 and 55, 51.6% – Jack Tar
Enmore Distillery in Guyana is an interesting one. With a quite well known brand in El Dorado, they also produce some different distillates, from the range of their setups. With that I mean that they don’t have a single distilling … Continue reading

Hampden 8yo vs Hampden LROK
Hampden is a Jamaican rum distillery, and apart from profiting from the rum renaissance that’s been happening ever since whisky got so ridiculously expensive, they’ve been producing quality hooch for years. What’s more interesting from a geek’s perspective is that … Continue reading
2 new Caroni, 1997 and 1998, by Wu Dram Clan!
Getting to try Caroni is, by now, the rum equivalent of getting to try a new Port Ellen or Brora, except for the fact that it’s about 10% of the price. So, when Wu Dram Clan offered to send me … Continue reading
