Rumclub Private Selection Navy Blend (KaDeWe Selection) 2024
"More on the bright and fruity side," as one taster put it — apricot, citrus and a soft floral lift on the nose, helped by the 51% ABV. The trouble shows up on the palate: most members find it thin, watery and a touch metallic, with the alcohol not quite tucked in. A multi-country navy blend that promises more than it pours.
- Bright fruity nose
- Apricot and citrus
- Floral notes

How does Rumclub Private Selection Navy Blend (KaDeWe Selection) 2024 taste?
Aggregated from 13 community reviews.
Fruity nose, thin and watery palate A pretty, fruity nose that several tasters say collapses on the palate — thin, sharp and watery. Opinions range from a decent everyday navy blend to genuinely disappointing.

Review by Lot-NAS
Overall a really nice Navy sipper. You can clearly find the components from Jamaica, Guyana and Barbados. Personally I think it is a bit too sweet and some additional bitterness from Guyana (root juice?) would be great. But then again it was an exklusive for the KaDeWe. So I am pretty sure their targeted audience will love it.
Review by zabo
Probably has nothing at all to do with the old Navi Blend, which was highly praised. This one is actually a waste of time. Many thanks to FischeJ for letting us try it. As KaDeWe, they probably only chose it to rip off tourists and poured the discarded barrels together at the RumClub. Big profit margin in sight.
Review by Johannes
Well-made blend, very round. Some Worthy Park and Trinidad can be tasted. A little alcoholic in the finish, could be more complex.
Review by mto75
The KaDeWe Navy blend reminds me strongly of the Next Generation Navy blend (Ed. 37), which was more focused on the fruity notes from Jamaica and Barbados. It's the same here. Differences in the slightly higher ABV of the KaDeWe blend I would probably only recognize in a direct comparison. I remain of the opinion that other navy blends such as the Pusser's Dockyard Reserve with the pronounced Maggi spice simply appeal to me more, as they are closer to the original bottlings.
Review by Mentalo
Ein Blend aus vier Ländern. Am ehesten würde ich noch low ester Jamaika (Worthy Park) vermuten. Die feinen fruchtigen Noten erinnern mich zumindest daran. Aber ansonsten leider recht dünnes Mundgefühl. Minimal sprittige Noten. Ein paar florale Noten noch. Insgesamt eher enttäuschend.
Review by Alex Kunath
Frisch eingeschänkt, sind florale Noten in der Nase. Der Alkohol ist noch sehr präsent. Nach etwas Zeit verfliegt der Alkohol und die fruchtigen und floralen Noten kommen in den Vordergrund. Auf der Zunge wieder leicht fruchtige Noten. Der Alkohol könnte besser integriert sein. Der Nachklang ist kurz und eher unscheinbar. Solider Blend, der aber nicht lange in Erinnerung bleibt.
Review by Lukas Jäger
Navy Blend finde ich eigentlich immer ganz gut. Eigentlich. In der Nase typischer Navy Blend. Fruchtig-karamellisiert, dazu hinten raus dann etwas Würze. Dass hier kein High-End im Glas wartet, ist klar. Leider enttäuscht der Gaumen aber dann doch ganz schön. Metallisch-scharf, dünn und wässrig. Für mich nicht der beste Navy-Blend…
Review by Alexander Rasch
Mmmm... a navy blend that somehow doesn't know what it is. Very drinkable on the nose with a high fruit content, it dies a miserable death on the palate. There's really not much going on here. Too thin, too alcoholic and too little complexity. The question arises as to who this blend is for... I think for beginners who want to try a premium product while vacation shopping. Definitely suitable for this.
Review by Basti
Relatively fresh and young on the nose, not bad, but not particularly exciting either. A total surprise on the palate, as I can hardly taste anything here. Drinks almost like water. I was expecting much more from this.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Die Nase ist wirklich schön und einladend... Aprikosenkonfitüre, leichte Ester, etwas Kokos, leichte Gewürztöne. Alles was man von den Ländern dieses blends erwarten könnte. Aromatisch hält er dann leider nicht das Niveau und wirkt eher stark verdünnt, dazu eher metallisch und gleichzeitig süßlich säuerlich. Wirkt einfach nicht rund und harmonisch. Als wenn man sich zum verdünnen (warum überhaupt?!) nicht genug zeit genommen hätte... Schade, das geht besser!
