Grays Lazy Dodo XO Chronicles

A solid stepping stone rum with tropical fruit, orange peel, mint and gentle oak at an easy 40%. RumX members find it tasty and balanced, though pricing feels ambitious for the complexity offered.

Interesting rum with fruity notes of peach and raisins, accompanied by wood, spices, and hints of Cognac. Quite dry, wood-forward, and slightly bitter when neat. With a bit of water, it becomes noticeably softer, sweeter, and more harmonious. Distinctive character, but for my taste, a bit too wood-heavy when neat.

#4066 I think this one is a bit overpriced thinking about what you get. A sweet and very fruity rum with a spicy/warm palate.

Tropical notes, dry, orange, mint. Great intensity for only 40%! A super entry into the Mauritius world!

Beautiful extension of lazy dodo! Grapefruit, orange peel, mint, slightly bitter orange and herbaceous woody. Not necessarily worth 80€ but tasty.

I had hoped that it would be significantly more complex and fruity than the standard version. Overall quite good and balanced, but too expensive for the marginal difference.
