Spirits of Old Man Rum Project Christmas in Love with Rum 2021
Caramel and cream toffee hit first, then baking spices — cinnamon, orange, a Christmas-cake feel — layered onto a sweet, liqueur-like base. Several tasters found the vanilla veers artificial and the whole thing runs "too sweet," with a body some call thin and a touch fruity. The added spices fade fast; empty the glass and it reads like any other sweet Project bottle.
The community says- Caramel-toffee sweetness
- Festive baking spices
- But: Very sweet

Sweet, spiced Christmas dessert sipper A mild, spiced-and-sweetened Christmas dram. Fans of soft dessert rum enjoy it, but plenty found the vanilla artificial and the sweetness closer to sugar water than rum.

Review by Tim
Ein gewürzter Rum, der weihnachtlich angehaucht ist. Zunächst typisch süß nach Karamell und Sahnetoffee, und fruchtig wie die anderen Projects 1, 4 & 5, dann werden aber weihnachtliche Gewürze bemerkbar, die hinzugefügt wurden. Vom Grundstoff her sehr rund und likörähnlich, aber insgesamt nicht wirklich meine Art von Rum. Beim Leermachen des Samples waren die Gewürze fast weg und es könnte fast ein beliebig anderer Project-Rum sein.
Review by zabo
Leider nicht so mein Geschmack. Erinnert stark an A.H.Riise. Sehr sehr süßer Geschmack, wie wenn man reines Zuckerwasser trinkt. Werde den Rest wieder ins Sample füllen und damit meinen nächsten Cappuccino damit süßen.

Again a sweet release with light fruit. Draws nice curtains in the glass.
Review by Gregor
Starke vanille die schon sehr künstlich rüber kommt. zu süß.
Review by Rumpalumpa
Erinnert mich direkt wieder an eine andere Rum Projekt Abfüllung die auch stark nach Kokos roch und insgesamt eher künstlich. Auch der Geschmack ist für mich nicht wirklich weihnachtlich. Süß, fruchtig aber eher dünn
Review by Johannes
Viele künstliche Backgewürze mit Zimt und Orange.
