Jung & Wulff No. 1: Trinidad
Aged Rum — Trinidad & Tobago
Reviewed March 8, 2022 (edited March 15, 2022)Tried neat. On the nares I get sweet peppers, brown sugar, maple syrup, & candied nuts. On the palate I was surprised to find it somewhat harsh initially but I think it was just unexpected. I get an earthy & vegetal flavor with notes of pepper and wood. Addendum: I would say I was surprised by the profile given my somewhat immature palate for rums. I mentally expected a sweet finish and this is not that. However, the thin, dry, leaves you wanting more finish is new to me! Eager to try the next 2 rums that were bought together to equal a beautiful case of 3 rums from Jung & Wulff at the Sazerac house in NOLA.The Sazerac House -

On the palate it’s smooth & sweet with hints of brown sugar, charred oak, slight vanilla, with a little spicy Kentucky hug on the backside. Delicious.

The Burning Chair Bourbon
Bourbon — (bottled in) California, USA
Reviewed February 12, 2022 (edited May 14, 2022)Tried neat. On the nares I get the obvious red wine as well as sour cherries, strawberries, oak, silky, chocolate. Very fruity and smells like a chocolate covered strawberry… but that could be because valentines is in 2 days and a girl has cravings. On the palate I very much get a red wine which is always nice. It’s tart and somewhat sour on the palate like an old wine with a hot finish. -
