8.3/10

Edit: it smells a bit too much like Bielle though. Small Ricci evening with the OVNI 1 and 2 side by side. It's a sample so take it with a grain of salt but: the tar evaporates quickly, then I find it more agricultural with some wood and apricot. On the palate, it follows, the fruit brandy is there too, there's a heavy dark and oily side, but also a livelier fruity side. Interesting two-stage tasting (although after 3 years of waiting I thought I'd have something more striking on the palate). The texture is so creamy though, that's top.

This is a funny blend. Two of the really big ones of which one is no more. The nose is woody with a hint of smoke, some citrus and vanilla and very light tarand iodine. The palate continues where the nose left off with wood and light smoke. Dried fruit and vanilla are there as well with iodine and very light tar notes. The finish is medium to long, warm with spices dried fruit and light touch of tar.

It's good, it's elegant, with a nice length. I just expected something more "crazy" but I still enjoyed the tasting.

Aged rum 

Avg Rating 8.0/10 over 15,000 Rums

Aged rum is where the spirit earns its complexity. In a tropical warehouse a barrel loses 6 to 10 percent of its contents to evaporation every year, which is why an 8-year Caribbean rum can taste deeper than a 20-year Scotch. This page gathers every rum on RumX that has spent real time in wood, with community ratings to separate the genuinely mature from the merely dark.
