24.6.2025 Casa Havana Prague The nose at the very beginning smells like shit with piss. It's from a cask of fortified wine, so I should like it. On the palate you can taste the cask and wood. The bottle is absolutely beautiful.

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.
