The Opthimus Edition 2015 is a 15-year-old rum produced by the Dominican Republic-based company, Oliver y Oliver. This rum undergoes a meticulous aging process of 15 years in bourbon oak barrels, utilizing the solera technique, before being bottled at 38% ABV.
The nose of this rum is a complex symphony of aromas that immediately captivates the senses. At the forefront are powerful, dark notes of liquorice, molasses, and olive, followed by a seductive blend of pastries such as raisins, baba, butter, prunes, cake dough, and fruit cake. A spicy and burnt woody note, along with a fatty blond tobacco, balances out the sweetness, while agitation releases the alcohol, black olive, fermentation, certain acidity, sultana, caramel, and cherry in brandy.
On the palate, the texture is incredibly soft, with a spicy woodiness that only lasts for a moment before giving way to candied fruits. The fatty tobacco spreads its flavors of caramel and vanilla, creating a harmonious balance of sweet and dry aspects.
Overall, Opthimus Edition 2015 is a refined and excellent tasting rum that is sure to delight any rum connoisseur. It has consistently received rave reviews, with many enthusiasts noting its exceptional value for money and its ability to impress anyone who tries it. Truly, it’s a rum worth keeping a couple of bottles on hand for any occasion.
