Review by Timo Groeger
Gar nicht so schlecht wie erwartet. Ist halt sehr holz- und Fasslastig in Nase und Gaumen. Kann außerdem einen Hauch Karamell herausschneiden. Zum pur trinken reicht es leider nicht, dafür kommt jetzt Coke darein.
Review by Werner10
Stay away if you don't like sweetened rums. This one is very sweet. Easy to drink but missing complexity.
Review by Dirk E.
Karibischer Rum, gut zu trinken, wird aber nicht zu meinen Favoriten aufsteigen.
Review by Michael Ihmels 🇩🇪
Der erste Rum heute, danke Timo dass du so einen Schatz zur heutigen Verkostung zur Verfügung gestellt hast. Schmeckt nach Kräutern, sehr alkoholhaltig und nach Nagellack. Meiner Meinung nach nicht zu empfehlen

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.
