Expert review by The Fat Rum Pirate
Read full review →These Scotch Whisky finished rums are interesting but I doubt this one would really win over a Scotch Whisky fan. Likewise, I'm not really sure what a rum fan would really get out of this. It's not bad and I'm pleased I tried it but I'm still not totally sure...

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.
