Famille Ricci Volt Face No2 Jamaïque-Barbade
If you already enjoy Jamaica-meets-Barbados blends, this cask-strength Ricci bottling is built for you. Nose is all roasted pineapple, banana and fermented-fruit esters; the palate swings toward the Bajan side with roasted wood, nuts, chocolate and caramel. At 66.4% the heat is real — several tasters wanted the alcohol tucked in tighter, and a few found the two islands don't fully knit.
The community says- Roasted pineapple
- Well-blended islands

How does Famille Ricci Volt Face No2 Jamaïque-Barbade taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Roasted pineapple, cocoa, hot cask-strength blend Most find it a well-married Jamaica/Barbados blend — roasted pineapple up front, cocoa and nuts behind. The catch: 66.4% burns for some, and a few say the two sides trade off rather than fuse.

#4960 Whisky Live in Paris 27.09.2024-30.09.2024. Another great event meeting a lot of RumX new and old friends. This year three weren't as many new releases as in 2023, but I still had a great time. Nose Fresh, medium intense, fruity, pineapple, roasted, light wood, light nutts, faint chocolate. Palate Medium intense, light wood, light roasted, faint coffee, fruity, light chocolate, nutts, warm, pineapple. Finish Long and warm, wood, light roasted, fruity, light coffee, faint chocolate, light nutty.

So what do we do now? This rum is really very fruity on the nose and then predominantly vanilla and very fruity on the palate. Seems to be a Barbados :) But I don't like the Riccis that much.
Review by zabo
I wasn't expecting much for the price that is being asked. But overall, for the price category, it delivers a decent performance. The alcohol could be better integrated. Otherwise, the individual markers of the blend are easily recognizable and don't ruin each other.
Review by Skyfly
Interesting blend that perfectly combines the typical aromas of both islands. On the nose and palate, you can detect tropical fruits—pineapple above all—and esters, but also wood/toast aromas. On the palate and finish, the Barbados flavors dominate with chocolate, nuts, wood, and toast notes. Alcohol is a bit strong but not badly integrated. 2nd tasting: a bit more sweetness and green apple on the nose. On the palate, very well balanced between both islands. Alcohol is better integrated than in the first tasting +2 points.
Review by Johannes
You can clearly taste the typical Worthy Park notes. I can't really taste Barbados.
Review by LukaŽiga
8,5:On the nose, Jamaican esters bump into our nosetrils, with tropical fruits like banana and pineapple, fresh flowery and grassy molasses, solvents, burnt/roasted wood, spicy. On aeration, Bajan markers join, with coconut, nuts, caramel, cinnamon, the rum is now slightly smoky and some confectionery is present, herbaceous and diary tones. 8,2:On the palate, the attack is intense, at first Jamaican with pineapple, banana, quickly Bajan overpowers with roasted wood notes like caramel, roasted nuts, spices like cinnamon and coconut.After resting the rum, the notes are more diverse with Jamaican markers joining, like fermented fruits, pastry, vanilla, as Bajan side participates with tobacco, crème brûlée, dark chocolate. 8,3:The finish is long, tannic, spicy, grassy and with lots of roastedness and notes from it like coffee, caramel, chocolate, some smokiness and confectionery, as the fruits are tropical with maracuja and banana...
Review by Thomas Renoud
Very interesting, you can really smell/taste the origin, very well blended
Review by Nicolas Sicilia
The nose is very indulgent, very chocolatey... The funk is quite light! On the palate, you feel the watt but it enhances the juice quite well! Always a nice indulgence! The Jamaican side takes more space, leaving a finish with a pleasant slight bitterness.
Review by TheJackDrop
Edit: tasted at the Brussels Rum Festival! > powerful, roasted pineapple, indulgent > tropical fruits, cocoa, pastry, almond > cocoa, pastry, almond, warm chestnut (The most powerful but very approachable) = indulgent & fruity
Review by Pavel Spacek
Wild Jamaica with sweet Barbados. Unfortunately the tastes are alterating pretty fast and do not integrate.
Review by Fuwi
Very nice combination! When pouring, it quickly spreads the expected Jamaica influences, fermented fruit, fruits and esters. On the tongue, the Barbados influence comes through well, alongside pineapple and sweet fruit then woody notes, a little chocolate and caramel. Finish quite flat, doesn't last too long - but I was surprised by the price, good value for money in my eyes.
Review by Loic Bazin
Lacks length
Review by Djehey
Visit at Famille Ricci! Surprising rum because in the mouth it gradually becomes more and more intense, so it has a very long finish. A real explosive fruit compote!
Review by Jacques etdom
Both juices are well present and blend well. A bit strong at opening, improves significantly after 2 months. Good value for money.
Review by Matthieu L
Very good aromas, especially chestnut but a bit alcoholic. You can really feel the 66%.
Review by Jérémie Leone
Power of Jamaica, sweetness of Barbados in a beautiful balance. Ripe, expressive, excellent price/pleasure ratio.
Review by UraReng3
Powerful explosion in the mouth on pineapple notes offering a nice length in the mouth.
