Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
What a lovely rum with a light woody note from nose to finish. Fruity with spices and dry on the palate and finish. Medium complex and well balanced.
Review by Oliver
Great vintage Bally! Perfect sweetness and creaminess, despite "only" 45%. Exceptional agricole.
Review by Benoit Bail
Un grand rhum de 1987. Typique de chez Bally.

I'm Oliver, and RumX began in 2018 as a small passion project in Stuttgart, back then under the name Rum Tasting Notes.
What began as my digital tasting diary is now the world's most comprehensive platform for rum fans, today carried by a small team with Jakob, Lukas and Katharina, with Robert supporting us as a freelancer. We combine the collective intelligence of our community with an integrated marketplace, so you can choose with confidence, without paperwork, detours, or expert jargon.
