5.0/10

Very one-dimensional on the nose with the usual bourbon caramel and vanilla notes. Taste-wise, rather rough and it stays with few aromas. I think more of a baking rum. In the finish, only a little caramel and cask notes remain.

Aged rum

Style

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.
