Romdeluxe Fary Lochan Distillery Series Rum No. 4 (Denmark) Forsyth 2020

Whisky drinkers dipping into rum are the real audience here — blind, most tasters would swear this came from the Scottish Highlands, not a still. Expect nutty raisin, chocolate and a smoky-sweet edge, plus a musty nose a few found off-putting ("erinnert an Magensäure"). Cask strength at 58.62%, from Denmark's Fary Lochan. Very specific, and not for everyone.

The community says
  • Nutty, raisin, chocolate
  • Long sweet finish

The look inside the bottle

How does Romdeluxe Fary Lochan Distillery Series Rum No. 4 (Denmark) Forsyth 2020 taste?

Summarized by AI from 25 community reviews.

Whisky-like, musty, very specific pot-still rum Polarizing. Whisky fans find a nutty, raisin-and-chocolate sipper worth the detour; several tasters say it barely reads as rum and the musty nose puts them off.

Exciting, very special rum! Taste-wise lots of nuts, raisins, chocolate, but also slight overripe fruits towards strawberry. Very exciting!

This bottling and I do not match. On the nose I have an aroma... that somehow repels me. It reminds me of stomach acid... On the palate I perceive little rum aromas. Everything rather reminds me of a whisky. Well, it was worth a try.

Very very special.... and not at all my cup of tea . The nose is characterized by eucalyptus sweets with smoky sweet BBQ sauce... mmh . On the palate first sweetness then immediately dried fruit and eucalyptus some whiskey and smoke. Mmh hard to grasp the whole thing... Long sweet finish.

Aged rum 

Avg Rating 8.0/10 over 15,000 Rums

Aged rum is where the spirit earns its complexity. In a tropical warehouse a barrel loses 6 to 10 percent of its contents to evaporation every year, which is why an 8-year Caribbean rum can taste deeper than a 20-year Scotch. This page gathers every rum on RumX that has spent real time in wood, with community ratings to separate the genuinely mature from the merely dark.
