A.H. Riise Centennial Celebration Rum
Opinion lands mostly warm here, with a real split at the edges. Most tasters find chocolate, plum, caramel and a touch of sherry, calling it a bit more layered than the usual Riise line — one even said it drinks "like a bar of chocolate" over time. But the sweetness is heavy (79 g/l sugar reported), and a few flatly called it artificial and one-dimensional.
The community says- Chocolate and plum
- Mild at 45%
- But: High sugar content

How does A.H. Riise Centennial Celebration Rum taste?

Sweet, chocolatey dessert-style sipper Loved by the sweet-Riise crowd for its chocolate, plum and sherry notes and mild feel. Detractors call it too sugary and artificial — and everyone flags the sugar.

8:On the nose, here is a rum a little different than what the brand had accustomed us to. It has slightly woody, quite tender profile. The wood is scented with tobacco, vanilla or caramel.The aromas are balanced and the spices, although very present, do not overdo it.With an aeration, it is once again the wood that takes the lead and joins a resinous rum.The dried fruits (dates and figs) are coated in honey and the cinnamon blows even more beautifully. The rum is sweet, but we are into carrot cake or gingerbread rather than confectionery. 8,2:On the palate, as on the nose, it is the rum which alone opens the parade of aromas. We first welcome a white and soft wood which exudes notes of coconut and vanilla, then the syrup with sweet spices pours out like maple syrup. The touch is very sweet and this time takes us to the funfair with its candy apples and candy canes. 8:The finish is on cooked sugar and caramel, with of course cinnamon, which is omnipresent from start to finish.

Brutally sweet and artificial...
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Another sweet Riise release and I use it as a rum for desserts and on ice cream.
Review by heckto🥃
A delicious rarity from A.H. Riise. It has the typical sweetness you know from this brand. However, I find it a bit more complex than many other Riise. On the palate, you taste chocolate, caramel, plum and a hint of sherry. Very interesting blend. Unfortunately, due to its limitation, it has become very expensive.
Review by rum_sk
This one is probably my favorite by Riise. Still sweet although not as much as regular line but still fairly sweet and it has a different flavor than others. For me I mostly sense coconut which is my most favorite flavor that can be combined with rum so therefore very subjective but high rsting due yo the coconut flavor. One big negative is its price which is absolutely ludicrous.

Very mild despite 45%.
Review by Daniel
Complex appearance on the nose followed by a warm, pleasant alcohol presence. Then the dominant sherry notes and subtly peach alongside the cask spice can be perceived.
Review by Dirk E.
A nice Riise
Review by Scotty1960
Tastes like milk chocolate and plums. It's sweet and has slight sherry notes on the finish.
Review by cola-rum trinker
Tastes after a while like a bar of chocolate... unfortunately you notice the 79 grams of sugar per liter... should be on the shelf... really tasty
Review by MJ72
Good A.H. Riise, pleasantly sweet with fruity notes and vanilla. Nice finish that lasts medium-long.
Review by Bernhard Hommel
Very boring, unidimensional, flat.
