Opthimus 21 Ans 38° : Description and customer reviews

Hand-packaged in numbered bottles, Opthimus 21 ans is an aged rum that has fully immersed itself in the warm climate of the Dominican Republic, thanks to ageing in oak barrels using the solera technique.

Nico's tasting notes

On the nose, a succession of flattering, gourmand aromas follow one another: a well-coated fairground praline, buttered caramel, a bold (but natural) vanilla bean. The woodiness shines through in this delicacy, necessarily restrained, lending its perfume without making the profile drier. The nuts are greedy too, but the rum remains light and simple, and doesn't seem too greasy, especially as a few mild spices enhance the nose a little. It seems sweet, of course, but tends more towards chocolate than candy. In fact, it is more reminiscent of a chocolate pastry.
Aeration gives more room to the nuts, which are dressed in a mixture of caramel, wood, molasses and coffee. We then concentrate more on the woodiness, which is rather finely vanilla-toned, reminiscent of a mild tobacco, resulting in something rather pleasant and well-balanced in the end.

The attack on the palate is light and very smooth, and the familiar flavors of caramel and vanilla make this a fairly easy rum to grasp. In the same spirit, we continue with blond tobacco, butterscotch and coconut. The orange and woody notes that follow are almost reminiscent of a sweet rum from Barbados.

The finish is well-balanced, with all the aromas seen on the palate melting into vanilla and caramelized sweetness.

"This rum is very smooth both in alcohol and aromatic power, its delicacy will seduce lovers of lightness..."

    Rum with a perfect balance, powerful, round, with a slightly woody side. For me a reference, the rum that makes you love rum.
