You can get 20% discount by stacking the 10% discount for ordering 4 products or more (samples work as well) and the 10% promo code for August. Lands at €360 that way.

At least in terms of age, I’m more inclined to believe this statement:

The carefully crafted blend consists of molasses rums that were allowed to mature for up to 8 years in ex-bourbon barrels, which gives it depth and a rounded character. With an alcohol content of 45% vol., it offers an intense yet elegant drinking experience.

An 18-year-old rum and then a merchandise markup on top of that would be much more expensive than the original €70. A maximum of 8 years and probably sweetened fits much better.
And at €10, it’s also a bargain. If I were a fan of the band, I’d go for it.

The bottler itself speaks of 18 years:

I would guess that the 8 years is the maturation in Guyana and the rest of the time was spent in Europe.
According to the (EU-recognized) rules in Guyana, the age statement is determined by the youngest component.

At Urban Drinks, some of the “Brands for Fans” contract bottlings are listed for €9.90.

A few of their products have RumX profiles:

So you shouldn’t expect too much, but they’re not terrible either.

The finish in “teakwood leaguers” suggests that the stuff was stored at E&A Scheer in Amsterdam. Leaguers are ~575–600l casks that were historically used especially for arrack.

Does anyone have a good deal on sample bottles right now?

Check it out here, but only available again from 14.9. 50 ml Apothekenflasche SV weiss, 11 mm | UNiTWIST BrownLine

50ml WITH lid for 43 cents from a minimum order of 88 pieces is already a good price

By the way, the store has a few decent Piscos at good prices if you want to try something like that sometime.
My recommendation would be the 1615 Mosto Verde Italia.

Amazon’s dumping it for 17€ too. Something’s fishy about that… but it’s worth a try

I think the only person who could tell you anything about the taste before the thing sells out is the deal creator:

When I saw the fresh deal 2 days ago, 897 bottles could still be added to the cart, now it’s only 307.

I wouldn’t expect fast shipping, the store has hundreds of bottles to ship starting tomorrow. Even if the sales pace for the rum has slowed down now, I wouldn’t count on anyone here having a chance to taste it before it’s all gone.

The sell-off has probably been going on since the 27th.

Next change at Delicando: The €10 gift vouchers can now be purchased again (and €20 & €50 continue to be available) with newsletter discount.

My next round:

Even without payment using discounted vouchers, you get a good price on the Casimir Ansyen with newsletter & prepayment discount.


(Of course, it’s recommended to fill up to the shipping cost threshold with gift vouchers)

Wait… €120 in vouchers and a €50 rum for a total of €81? So without the rum €120 for €30??? That’s crazy :rofl:

Edit: I just saw you also paid with (presumably discounted) vouchers. So +€62.50… phew, I thought so for a second.

Yes. According to my calculation, the Casimir has effectively cost me €46.71 now, and the new €50/€20 vouchers €39/€15.60 each.

Speaking of Urban Drinks:
I just stumbled across The RealMcCoy 12 (Foursquare) for €27.90 at Urban Drinks:


https://www.urban-drinks.de/the-real-mccoy-12-yo-07l-40-vol.html

It’s not listed there as a sale price, but the next cheapest shop starts at around €50.

But that’s the 40% version, I prefer the 46% version better

The 46% version only starts at €60, so significantly more than double the price here.
Or am I missing comparable deals there?
