Don Q Double Cask Finish Puerto Rican Rum Finished in Sherry Casks

Don Q Double Cask Finish Puerto Rican Rum Finished in Sherry Casks Rum review by the fat rum pirateDon Q Double Cask Finish Puerto Rican Rum Finished in Sherry Casks. Snappy little name for it eh? Maybe not but at least it goes some way to describing the contents of this bottle.

Which is a lot more than can often be said for the lighter latin style of rums from Central and South America. This is the second Double Cask Finish rum Don Q have released in recent times. The Vermouth Cask finish, I have yet to review. I’ll get round to it though don’t worry. Read more to see the fatrumpirate rating

Diablesse Caribbean Rum

DIablesse Caribbean Rum review by the fat rum pirateDiablesse Caribbean Rum. This is the second rum from the Diablesse brand, that I have reviewed recently. At present the two rums are their full portfolio.

The first Diablesse rum I reviewed was a Spiced Clementine Rum, I really enjoyed that one. This rum is perhaps their more “serious” effort. Founder of Diablesse Rum, Cleo Farman is very keen to attract drinkers to try out rum for the first time, so has went for a blend of rums from some of the Caribbean’s real powerhouses of rum production.

JAH45 Silver Rum

JAH45 Silver Rum Review by the fat rum pirateJAH45 Silver Rum. This is the latest rum in the JAH45 line up to get a review here. It follows on from the Gold and Dark iterations of the brand.

The brand has it’s own website, which outlines its full portfolio of 5 rums from Silver to Spiced and everything in between.

JAH45 Silver is a blend of Column distilled rum from Clarendon and Pot Still rum from Monymusk, New Yarmouth and Hampden. I am unsure of the age but I think the oldest rum in the blend is around 3 years old. Read more to see the fatrumpirate rating

Velier National Rums of Jamaica Ltd Cambridge ST♥CE 2005

Velier National Rums of Jamaica Ltd Cambridge ST♥CE 2005 Rum Review by the fat rum pirateVelier National Rums of Jamaica Ltd Cambridge ST♥CE 2005. In 2018, Independent bottler Velier released four rums from National Rums of Jamaica, this is the second of those releases that I have reviewed.

This rum was distilled at the legendary Long Pond Distillery. It has been given the Cambridge moniker, in reference to the ester classification used at the now closed Cambridge Distillery. Cambridge ST♥CE refers to rums with a ester level between 550 and 700 gr/hlpa. In the grander scheme of things, this is mid level ester levels but most commercially available Jamaican rums are much lower in esters. This is funky stuff! Read more to see the fatrumpirate rating
