Review by Thunderbird
Sweet dried plum and raisin, chocolate and cinnamon... all of that rushes powerfully into the nose and continues on the palate! Creamy, almost liqueur-like, the rum spreads out. In the finish, alongside chocolate and dried plum, a touch of bittersweet chocolate joins in! Overall, this rum gives me the impression it wants to be more of a dessert... but a delicious one.
Review by heckto🥃
A smoky chocolate flavor with a warm plum finish. Vanilla and caramel round out the flavor profile. However, the added sugar is quite strong and dominates on the palate and in the nose. A clear recommendation for sweet rum lovers.
Review by Tom Buteneers
First time in a long time trying this. Had some tiramisu and decided to pair this with it, but it’s actually sweeter. The tiramisu at least has a bit of bitterness from the coffee. Far too much sugar for my palate nowadays. Scored it way higher in the past. Only way this bottle will ever be emptied, is by adding it to a coffee or maybe ask my girlfriend to make a rum cake with it. Or perhaps over ice cream in stead of caramel sauce. I can’t seem to enjoy it anymore.

Nach längerer Zeit wieder im Glas und immer noch gut…
Review by Sebastian Kornett
Sugar with flavors, glycerin, water and alcohol at an overpriced price.
Review by BTHHo 🥃
The taste offers notes of cedar wood, vanilla, caramel, golden fruits and molasses.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Take the already very sweet non plus ultra and add the flavors of gummy bananas, strawberry cream candies and pink cocktail cherries and again an extra portion of industrial sugar and a little more caramel... Et voilà: black edition. Mic drop, over and out. Sorry but no, just no.
Review by Beach-and-Rum 🏖️🌴
Wow. Extrem süß. Eine wirklich super Nachspeise, allerdings kein typischer Rum. Schmeckt schokoladig, leicht fruchtig. Es kommen trotz der Süsse viele Facetten zum Vorschein. Ich kann den Rum auf jeden Fall weiter empfehlen für alle Süßrumfans.
Review by Korkennase🥃
The absolute sweet rum king. The nose is taken by the sweetness and reminds me of brandy beans 😵. The sweetness is also very dominant in the taste, as well as in the finish. The Plantation XO was already a sugar bomb but this rum can top that. Who stands on sweet rums is in good hands here. Too bad that such a product is so messed up with sugar... sorry..., I can not understand. For science 🥃.
Review by Yannick93
A very sweet dessert rum. On the nose, it comes across pleasantly soft with hints of chocolate, caramel, and fruit. On the palate, you can possibly recognize the fruit as citrus, maybe orange. You also find the sweetness and chocolate from the aroma again, and in the background, my pleasant rum base is noticeable. The finish is soft, sweet, and has a slight touch of ginger spice. All in all, a successful rum if you like it sweet and chocolaty.

Review by Malte
Very high residual sugar content, you have to like it. A little sticky on the nose, irritating at first, but not disturbing. Otherwise a wonderfully long finish of wonderful aromas.
Review by Johannes
Sweet, artificial flavors with chocolate, orange, fruits.

Fantastic.. Best NPU from AH Riise
Review by Kasper
Well crafted candy rum but not at all my taste. Second taste: sticking with score. Really good if you want to present a sweet dessert from for people that don't like rum.
