Discover the unique and exquisite Samaroli 2000 Barbados No. 19, a distinguished 16-year-old rum bottled in 2016 and limited to just 160 bottles. With an ABV of 45%, this 700ml bottle is a treasure for any connoisseur. Originating from the renowned Samaroli brand, this rum hails from the vibrant region of Barbados, known for producing some of the world's finest rums. On the nose, you'll first encounter a fleeting sweetness with notes of honey and banana, soon followed by toasted, malty, and earthy whisky-like aromas. The nutty undertones add an additional layer of complexity to the bouquet. The palate reveals a mildly spicy and somewhat gritty profile, featuring hints of licorice, pepper, and a burnt character. There's a distinctive whisky influence, yet the texture remains thin, watery, and mild. As for the finish, it leaves a lingering bitterness and a woody aftertaste. Uncharacteristically earthy for a Barbados rum, the 45% ABV might seem a bit underwhelming, rendering the overall experience rather mild. This Samaroli release presents a fascinating blend of smoky and spicy notes balanced by a touch of sweetness, culminating in a long, bitter conclusion.
Its unique flavor profile, which is unusually earthy and has a distinctive whisky-like character, sets it apart from other Barbados rums.
This limited edition release consists of only 160 bottles.
The Samaroli 2000 Barbados No. 19 16yo has an ABV of 45%.
It stands out due to its complex flavor profile that combines smoky, spicy, and sweet notes, offering an experience closer to whisky than to typical Barbados rums.
Overall: The Samaroli 2000 Barbados No. 19 16yo offers a complex flavor profile with smoky and spicy notes, balanced by hints of sweetness and a lengthy bitter finish.
As a rum enthusiast, I find the Samaroli 2000 Barbados No. 19 16yo to be an intriguing and unconventional offering. Its unique blend of smoky, spicy, and sweet notes, combined with a whisky-like character, provides a distinct tasting experience. While the 45% ABV might feel a bit weak, the intricate flavors and limited availability make it a worthy addition to any collection.
