Richland Rum Single Estate Old South Georgia Rum (Romhatten Cask #2) 2011
Most tasters land around "good but nothing groundbreaking" — several kept comparing it blind to a lightly sweetened Foursquare or a Foursquare–Worthy Park mix. What's in the glass: chocolate, pecan and roasted cranberries over vanilla and sweet virgin oak, with dried fruit and a maple-honey edge. At 62% the alcohol sits surprisingly quietly. Enjoyable and balanced, but a few found it short on lasting impression.
The community says- Well-integrated alcohol
- Chocolate and pecan
- But: Little lasting impression

Review by Frank
Da hat mir der Eugen dieses Sample geschickt, um etwas olfaktorisch klugschnacken zu können. Ich fühle mich geehrt😇 nun, dann wollen wir mal … ein 9 Jahre alter aus Übersee, aus einem Virgin Oak, Pot Still, Melasse, ohne alles mit 62%. Klingt schon mal sehr gut… Nase: wow, sehr dichtes und volles Aroma. Würzig-holzig mit dunklen, süß-sauren Früchten. Das New Make Eichenfass bringt gleich zu Beginn ordentlich Vanille und süßes Holzaroma. Die Süße erinnert mich an kräftigen Waldhonig. Zugleich sind da aber auch fruchtig-frische Noten von saftiger Zitrone, Orange und süß-sauer schwarzer Johannisbeere, Stachelbeere und Sauerkirsche. Ja, könnten auch Cranberry’s sein. Dahinter kommen auch nussig Aromen von fetter Pekannuss und Kakaopulver. Die %% passen super. Gefällt mir richtig gut. 8,9 Gaumen: auch hier kräftig und würzig-holzig. Das Virgin Oak kommt wieder mit Vanille und süßen Holzaromen, dazu hat man aber auch einen salzig-bitteren Antritt der mit leichten Tanninen daher kommt. Dominant finde ich erneut die süß-sauren Früchte - Sauerkirsche und Stachelbeere - die allerdings von Muskat, Pfeffer und etwas süßer Lakritze begleitet werden. Wirkt insgesamt etwas jung und wild, röstig und nussig-speckig, macht aber wirklich Spaß. 8,7 Gerne mehr davon 🤤
Review by Rodolphe
A real nice discovery of this distillery, thanks Jonas. The profile is greedy (chocolate, nuts) with a nice concentration. The alcohol is super integrated, I would not have guessed the 62 if it was not written. In short, it is a very good rum of this profile.
Review by Dr.Django
richland aus den USA. 9 Jahre tropisch (?) gereift? Fassstark. Wow, suprise suprise. möchte man meinen. Der Rum ist gut, der Alkohol sehr gut eingebunden, der Geschmack erinnert sehr an Foursquare mit etwas Nuss unf angerösteten Cranberries. Für weitere Ausührungen müssten Aroma Detectives ala Frank_N her. Lecker, leider wenig innovativ.
Review by Peder Frits Nielsen
A good and Well-tasting rum. Beautiful tone, good nose and a good and delicious taste. My second rum from this US distillery - and certainly not my last 😋
Review by Buddudharma
Pleasing, but without that certain something...
Review by Christian Rudt
Very relaxed rum despite the >62Abv, lots of molasses, dried fruit and hints of chocolate. Neat and balanced, but without lasting impression.
