"What a top rhum ! Tasted in the RumX calendar. From the nose I still assumed a molasses rum and have tried to assign the aromatics. On the palate, however, the subtle florality and hay note has …"

"All in all, a crassly complex rum. It's fun to decipher the individual components, or at least to try. However, it is also somewhat tiring due to its exuberant aroma and is not an easy sipper like the …"

"C'était mon premier rhum de style Skeldon et je dois dire que je suis très enthousiaste à son sujet. Il est complexe, corsé et extrêmement doux, malgré ses 53,2%. Une expérience de dégustation très …"

"Beautiful fruity nose. Fresh and dried plums, wood and chocolate. Very complex. Reminds me of the TRC Enmore 32. A different picture on the palate. Minty, fresh and bitter. Black tea, green walnuts, …"

"An incredibly round and aromatically complex rum blend. I liked extremely well"

"Extremely good continental aged Monymusk. Fruity, spicy, light honey sweetness and very nice barrel aromas."

"Uhh, this is an exciting Caroni. On the nose I smell menthol, spruce, essential oils. In the mouth, the aroma is omnipresent. I feel reminded of a cold candy. When inhaled, the mouth is downright …"

"Even more aromatic than the comparative bottling of CDI. Spicier and slightly less sweet in taste. Allspice and pepper come to the fore very present next to the cookie dough and the fruit basket. A …"

"A very good Caroni that I liked especially for its perfect balance and excellent aging. Both the nose and the taste is at a very high level. Especially by its ethereal florality, it stands out a …"

"What a board. Reminds me of really good Rockley Style Rum."

"Great REV! Dark, malty and complex. The fruit is not in the first place, but always accompanies the aromatics. One tastes the eight years of tropical storage in my opinion very well, thereby the …"

"Un rhum fantastique et extrêmement complexe, avec une belle acidité, dans lequel il y a beaucoup à découvrir. Seule la fin de bouche est un peu courte."

"Fantastic Foursquare. There you should have once struck when it was still at halfway reasonable prices. A rum for every day."

"Mega nose, fruity, woody, glue and mild despite barrel strength. On the palate then predominantly spicy, toasty, woody (not too much) and then also bitter and dry. The dried fruit then comes out again …"

"The 2020 was not quite our rum, it was too bitter for us and thus quite one-dimensional. In the still one year older barrel, this bitterness and the tannins are also still clearly present, but …"

"A great rum that shows what an old Enmore has to offer. Already in the nose it is intense and powerful. The fruitiness comes through very well. The alcohol is incredibly well integrated."

"Very nice Long Pond. More esters on the nose than on the palate. Tastes very adult and super matured."

"Great barrel selection! Tops the Beenleigh bottlings from this vintage. Powerful, intense, highly aromatic. Alcohol is very well integrated. Price is more than fair. Amazing that it is still …"

"Hampden essence in absolute top quality. The integration of the alcohol is phenomenal."

"Dégusté dans le calendrier RumX. Un vieil Agricole extrêmement savoureux et parfaitement équilibré."

"Unlike other bottlings of the New Yarmouth 1994, the variant from SBS is a) diluted and b) has clearly pronounced coconut aromas. The rum is extremely creamy and pleasing for 57% by volume. The …"

"More fruity on the nose than on the palate. Typical KFM bitterness that you have to like. I like it though. Well balanced and spicy, but not the king of KFMs in my opinion. In direct comparison, the …"

"Guyana mit extrem dreckigen Nuancen. Geile Geschichte!"

"Very tasty, great nose, very nice on the palate. The balance is perfect"

"Very long finish. Multifaceted, full-bodied and elegant. A rum at its zenith. A very great drop. For me personally, unfortunately, clearly too expensive."

"Fantastic New Yarmouth. Very fruity and also vegetal. In addition, spicy-herbal and in the taste also biscuit-sweetish. Makes really fun!"

"The long tropical maturation period and the interesting mix of barrels give the Raconteur a strong aroma profile. The rum is fun, the craftsmanship is excellent, but it is not the best that has come …"

"Needs some time in the glass but then shows multilayered flavors that come together, I think, very elegant. He has quite a lot of force to which you have to get used briefly. Unusually, I find the …"

"Very complex but also spicy rum. Many fruits that are all a little overripe or fermented. Due to the long maturation are very nice barrel flavors."

"A great rum from Fiji with very own flavors and many esters. Pronounced aroma of strawberry cream candy with a very fine sweetness and creaminess."

"Typical Port Mourant. A very round easy sipper. Very mature it still lacks a little depth"

"What a great rum. I really liked the berry aroma. The wood notes are very good. The alcohol is also very well integrated."

"Grandiose Fiji rum with an impressive blend of fruity and woody aromas over which the esters waft. Suspected reference."

"I like even better than the already extremely good 2018 bottling. Is more complex with a very nice fruity berry note. Otherwise also green and grassy with lots of sugar cane and pronounced ester …"

"An incredibly beautiful Spanish-style rum. The high ABV suits it extremely well on the nose, but in my opinion a few drops of water work very well on the palate to open it up and reveal more fruity …"

"Very nice Ten Cane. Fruity, chocolaty, woody."

"Beautiful dark aromas with a slight freshness that resonates in the background to burnt muscovado sugar. Unfortunately, a bit thin."

"Very nice Fiji rum with a great vanilla biscuit note that I find very present and long lasting"

"The alcohol integration feels better on the palate than on the nose. Overall, a very mature rum that probably shouldn't have stayed in the barrel much longer. A not completely typical Foursquare with …"

"Pronounced funky nose with lots of red berries and vegetal aromas. This image continues on the palate. Very powerful and intense. Alcohol could be a little better integrated. Also makes a super …"

"Very nice grape note, nice spice, I like excellent"

"A very good rhum that largely loses its agricole notes due to the long maturation. Still tastes very very good and offers many flavors that are very well balanced and make the rhum very complex"

"Relaxed rum with a pronounced coconut note and lots of toffee, but also a certain astringency and bitterness. Very strong for a Spanish style rum. I liked very much"

"The Cave Guildive is more complex and powerful in comparison. The RA seems somewhat watered down by the 47.1%. The finish is extremely long and beautiful. Reminds me of a Fiji rum. The typical honey …"

"Even though we don't usually do this, we still deduct points for the price. The relocated variant already hits with a decent price. However, the short finish then doubles the price, which we feel is …"

"Der Caroni dieser Abfüllung gehört eher zu den entspannteren und fruchtigeren Vertretern dieses speziellen Rumstils. Der Rum ist sehr rund, zugänglich und ausgewogen"

"Il faut une éternité pour qu'il s'ouvre. Mais ensuite, une véritable diversité d'arômes. A la deuxième dégustation, il est typiquement jamaïcain, mais pas du tout. Il a aussi un côté épicé qui …"

"Vielmehr ist die Wagemut Special Edition 2023 trotz des erhöhten Alkoholgehalts ein zugänglicher Tropfen, der sowohl den Kenner als auch den Neuling auf eine entspannte Reise mitnimmt. Er ist wie ein …"

"Ein fruchtiger Caroni ohne großen Ecken und Kanten."

"Doesn't taste as medicinal as a Rockley of the same year (this one is distilled in July, not June), but goes in a similar direction. Beautiful bottling which is not common. Had mistakenly held in the …"
