8.2/10

#4857 Whisky Live in Paris 27.09.2024-30.09.2024. Another great event meeting a lot of RumX new and old friends. This year three weren't as many new releases as in 2023, but I still had a great time. Nose Wood, fruits, light dried fruit, light coffee, chocolate, light caramel, spice. Palate Round, balanced, medium spicy, light wood, spice, dried fruit, light caramel, natural sweetness, light dry. Faint cherry. Finish Long and warm, round, light oily, wood, light roasted, light chocolate, light nutts, light cherry. A very nice rum that you should give a try if you get the chance. It needs to rest for a few minutes while you warm it in your hand to fully open up.

Dégusté au Whisky Live Paris 2024 - notes de dégustations rapides, vous êtes prévenus. Franchement le Nicaragua c'est pas mon truc, un peu trop de vanille et de miel, dommage car il y a aussi des épices et quelques fruits qui mériteraient d'être moins écrasés.
