Not as super acidic as the Fritz Haag, but still very strong acid balance to the sweetness. Liked a lot! — 4 years ago
4/26 another really nice rum. Not as smooth as the El Dorado 12 year. Or the Ron Zacapa but really tasty. 90. — 2 months ago
Served this slightly chilled (12’C?).
Gorgeously fresh and pure dark fruit. Succulent, juicy, still primary….
Tannines and alcohol beautifully blended into the dense and viscous core. Only a slight hint of spice, chocolate and licorice now. Sweetness and freshness in excellent balance. It even feels more fresh than sweet at the moment. Certainly not too heavy nor intense.
This is so forward and yummy and sexy right now… I just don’t miss the complexity it might be lacking at this stage.
Sure, it has a few decades of life left and it could get more cerebral and complex…
But don’t bother. Drink it now! — 6 months ago

Ripe peach and grapefruit with a hint of apricot. On the first night the sweetness dominated (we mainly drink dry Riesling). This was 8.5% ABV with plenty of residual sugar, but on the 2nd night not tasting as sweet. Purity verging on crystalline. Medium plus palate intensity. A class act typical of JJ PRUM. I’m not sure if I have chosen the right title here. There was nothing “Trocken” (Dry) about this Riesling. — a year ago

Not auction. Golden. Peach and honey and apple juice on the nose. Rounded and beautifully balanced with a hint of muskiness. Gently sweet. Very good — a month ago
