Rumclub Private Selection Ed. 43 Deadset Blend
One taster called this "kein Rum, mit dem man sich akademisch beschäftigt" — and that fits. It's an easy sipper: honey and vanilla up front, gooseberry, pear and light florals, then spice, salt and a little wood. A five-country blend with a REV cask finish. Most people find the nose lovely; a few feel the palate goes thin and the finish falls a bit short.
The community says- Lovely honeyed nose
- Round, easy drinking
- But: Thin body

How does Rumclub Private Selection Ed. 43 Deadset Blend taste?
Aggregated from 64 community reviews.
Honey-and-fruit easy sipper, thin finish Most tasters land around "easy, round daily sipper" with a gorgeous honey-and-fruit nose. The recurring catch: palate can read thin and the finish turns short, dry or slightly bitter.

Review by Banana Joe
Erster Eindruck ist toll. Olfaktorisch überzeugt mich der Blend mit Rosenblüten, Muskatblüte und Honig. Danach etwas Vanille. Macht wirklich Spaß in der Nase. Kann den ersten Eindruck am Gaumen aber nicht bestätigen. Hier überwiegt für mich eine Bitterkeit, die ich so nicht so gerne mag. Zu adstringierend für meinen Geschmack. Kann hier gar keine Aromen genau zuordnen. Im Abgang auch sehr holzig/bitter. Meinen Geschmack trifft er nicht. An der Nase für mich eine 9, geschmacklich aber nur eine 5. Insgesamt damit gerade noch eine 7.
Review by Dr.Django
A very exciting blend, which in my opinion is a success. Delicious easy sipper, in which the Australian part (if you know it, in the blind tasting I was absolutely clueless and had guessed Guyana=D) comes through clearly. The honey note and the bright fruits stand out and are pleasing, a little smoke also comes through briefly, which harmonizes very well with the honey. Unfortunately, the finish is quite short, but the aftertaste is all the more fun. I highly recommend playing with the amount of rum on the palate. Third tasting: -2 pts.
Review by Boletus
Ein schöner Blend, der mit einem süffigen und runden Gesamtbild glänzt. Die immer wieder durchscheinende, sehr saubere Alkoholnote lässt auf eine eher neutrale Basis schließen, die aber durch die verschiedenen enthaltenen Rums ein breitgefächertes Aromenspektrum trägt. Insbesondere bei den Früchten sind von Beeren über Steinobstnoten hin zu tropischem Obst alle Bereiche abgedeckt, wobei die Einzelaromen selten lange zu greifen sind, sondern sich recht schnell wieder in das stimmige Gemenge einfügen.
Review by Schnubbii
Dieser Rum ist nicht besonders komplex oder raffiniert. Auch in der Nase finde ich ihn eher zurückhaltend. Aber er ist einfach - zumindest für meinen Geschmack - so verdammt rund und lecker und zugänglich, dass er sich einfach so wegschlürfen lässt. Selten einen Rum im Glas gehabt, der das Prädikat "Easy Sipper" so verdient wie dieser hier. Das hier ist kein Rum, mit dem man sich akademisch länger beschäftigen kann. Das ist ein Rum für die Momente, in denen man einfach nur ein einen leckeren Rum zum Wegschlürfen im Glas haben möchte, zu dem man sich nicht zu viele Gedanken machen muss.
Review by Bavarian Rum Lover
For me, the rum is somehow neither fish nor meat, the variety of flavors is limited both on the nose and on the palate. Individual countries cannot be tasted from the blend or do not dominate, resulting in a slightly unfinished and less complex blend, at least for me. In addition, the body is very velvety, fine and almost fragile, so that the volume of flavor suffers. You can enjoy it as a sample, but for a whole bottle and the price, I don't think it's enough for my palate.
Review by Frank
RumClub's own blend in the cask. And a really nice, well-balanced, uncomplicated but sufficiently complex blend. Nose: very fruity and spicy, smooth and sweet. The first thing I notice is a pleasant syrupy, almost floral honey sweetness. Closely accompanied by sweet-tart gooseberry or kiwi, blackberry and pear and citrus fruits, perhaps citrus marmalade. Sugar syrup with vanilla adds a final touch. This is followed by fine spicy notes; mace and a very light hint of liquorice. It is also slightly woody. Very pleasant 8.6 Palate: very smooth to drink despite the 52%. Quite spicy at the beginning. First aniseed and a nice metallic-salty tip, before caraway, gooseberry and a bacony nuttiness get ready. I would say salty almonds. I can hardly make out the fruit, perhaps green apple. But the finish is a little short. 8.4 All in all, an easy sipper, although I find it difficult to pick out the individual components of Australia, Fiji, Jamaica, Barbados, Puerto Rico and Trinidad. Very suitable for beginners.
Review by Christian Rudt
Der jüngste Streich vom Rumperator Dirk Becker ist dieser Blend. Mal kein Navyblend, es herrschte also etwas Anarchie in der Zusammenstellung. Herausgekommen ist ein in der Nase vielschichtiger Rum wo sich fruchtig und blumig wechselnd zeigen. Geschmacklich kommt etwas salziges, gar Jod hinzu, dies zieht sich durch in ein schönes wieder fruchtigeres, leicht trockenes Finish.
Review by RumTaTa
The nose greets me with aromas that I would assign to Guyana and Jamaica. On the palate, first Jamaica and lots of wood, then Guyana too. The alcohol is more present here than I had expected with the ABV. The finish is wonderfully chocolaty (dark chocolate 80%+) Conclusion: very solid blend in the upper entry-level range at a fair price, very good!
Review by mto75
First read up on what the Spezi is all about: A blend of Fiji, Jamaica, Barbados, Puerto Rico and Trinidad. The whole thing was then matured for another 7 months in a cask from the 2006 Enmore REV Ed. 39. Gooseberry meringue pie, Calvados, baked apple and cream candy on the nose. Pleasantly soft on the palate at first, almost like a cognac, but then quite strong notes of allspice, sandalwood, mocha. Long finish, which I find not so pleasant...(astringent-salty). A successful experiment? Overall, I think so.
Review by Andi
The new bottling from the RumClub Edition is very complex, both on the nose and on the palate. The guys have really blended something together. It's not for every day, but it definitely has a lot of aromas that you can taste bit by bit. In any case, the price-performance ratio is absolutely fine.
Review by zabo
Tasted at the Pueblo del Ron 2024. At first I was a little skeptical about this blend, but I was proved wrong. At least it has a good complexity that is relatively harmonious. Also fair for the price. But it wasn't a real winner at the fair.
Review by Martin Švojgr
Very interesting dry blend. I was looking for a trace of HD 29Yr, which is supposed to be there but is carefully hidden. This blend has a very long finish, sour sherry, nicely dry. Maybe the HD comes out in that long finish. I'm enjoying it very much!
Review by Thunderbird
I really like the nose of this blend. A beautiful intense fruitiness of various berries, paired with vanilla and honey scents... like a beautiful late summer evening. On the palate, however, it does not live up to its promise. It spreads lightly and softly without any aroma emerging. A minimal sweetness is noticeable... gradually it develops from tart berries to more spices, cask and long-cooked espresso... this is clearly too little in terms of aromas. The finish is reasonably good... a little sour cherry joins the spicy, woody aromas very late on. A solid blend, but nothing more.
Review by DomM
Very well executed blend with quite some complexity to it. Fruity notes and spices are working very well together on the nose. Similar on the palate with a good evolution towards a long finish with dried fruits. Nice sipper.
Review by F.L.O.
Quite nice but nothing more. As always, a stable Spirit or Rum - RumClub. But like some of its predecessors, not a "must have". Nice nose with licorice, wood and fruity on the palate then a spicy fruit bread with wood.
Review by Alexander Rasch
The nose is really fun. Especially the sweet honey part. Has something of mead. More spice with pepper on the palate. The whole thing is very harmonious but also a little thin. I like it very much as a simple sipper.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Tolle Nase nach Stachelbeeren, Birne und kiwi, sowie floralen Anklängen. Australien ist hier klar im Vordergrund, geschmacklich dann leicht metallisch und bitter nach vermutlich Fiji, leicht floral und bitter. Meiner Meinung nach ist das Finish im Guyana Fass hier nicht ganz passend und der blend generell etwas arg wild gewählt. Werde ich nicht ganz warm mit...
Review by Martin Augustin
Ein sehr fruchtiger Vertreter in der Nase. Das zieht sich auch im Geschmack durch, ergänzt um etwas Salz. Ein weniger komplexer, dafür sehr guter Daily Sipper. Ein sehr gelungener Blend.
Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
Oh, I can't even taste a country, let alone a distillery, it's not sophisticated, but simply fantastically balanced and sips away, that's how it should be!
