Old wood and concentrated grenadine lead the way, with a soft, almost gourmand attack and a light gunflint edge that keeps it lively. This is the reduced 45% take on Rhum Rhum's Libération, and several tasters actually preferred it to the full-proof — the lower ABV doesn't dull the profile, it balances it. Oily, warm, faintly chocolatey, unmistakably Rhum Rhum.

A small superficial comparison tasting between the three newest Rhum Rhum RX25045, RX25046, and RX26410. Roberto would put it like this: RX26410>RX25045>>RX25046. Yes, the RX25045 is for my taste actually just barely behind the superb RX26410. And the longer it stays in the glass, the closer it gets to it; it feels just as powerful but fruitier. The RX25046 is also very tasty but falls a bit short for me due to its lower ABV and the associated lower aroma density. All three are recommendable bottlings.

Small X-tasting: Very floral/ funky rum with pronounced cane aromas. Alongside that, light young wood and various fruits, but they stay in the background. You can basically taste the dilution through quite flat flavours.

Today in comparison RX25046, RX25045 and RX26410. After the latest YouTube video by Oliver, I also took a look at the MatchScore after tasting, and I'd say I could adopt it as is.

Messetasting Whisky Live Paris. Eindrücke und Bewertung basieren auf unmittelbaren Eindrücken aus dem Tastingglas. Typisches Rhum Rhum-Profil, schöne Balance. Tolle Qualität.
Review by Martin Spooner
The nose is nicely floral and really lightly nutty. There's also a bit of sulfur coming through. On the palate, it's a bit restrained but still radiates a certain warmth. Not too sharp. Relatively smooth. All in all, it tastes pretty good. The finish then gains a bit of dominance.
Review by Jarek
Nose nutty, grassy, floral and with notes of dried fruits. On the palate, the fruity notes fade more into the background, the floral and biting notes become more dominant. Subtle influence of wood. Clearly lighter than the Integrale, but not too thin yet.
Review by Johannes
A bit thin, but really good in terms of flavor!
Review by FischeJ
Floral, honey-sweet, slightly grassy, pear. Quite a subtle nose. On the palate, a sweet start, profile similar to the nose. Grassy, pear/honeydew melon, subtle cask influence. Compared to the Integrale, more 'drinkable' and less woody, full and intense. Still not thin! Like the other vintages, a very successful reduction.
Review by ThreeH
This bottling compared to the non-reduced parallel bottling RX25045. As expected, the reduced version has a lighter color depth, but still an appealing yellow gold with a brown tint. The nose is slightly floral with a subtle woody note. It feels fresh but overall restrained. On the palate, wonderfully drinkable with the nose aromas in the foreground. Plus cane sugar sweetness and towards the middle finish also some vegetal/green notes. All in all very tasty and easy to drink without losing the profile compared to the non-reduced variant. Well done and not really worse in comparison, maybe even because it comes across milder.
Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
A profile of concentrated grenadine and old wood, with a soft and indulgent attack. The woodiness is well balanced, lifted by a slight touch of acidity that adds pep. Tasted at the end of the day, surprise: I preferred the reduced version, more harmonious than the Full Proof, despite its extra watts!
Review by F.L.O.
Amazing what the 45 can do. The first sip was like "meh", the second was "whoa". Doesn't say much... but in Franconian: "Bassd scho" (means "it's fine"). Has typical RhumRhum notes, and for the regular Otto edition a relatively long finish. Great entry into the series... if you didn't already know all the others :-)
Review by Benoit Mahe
My favorite from WLP 2025. A perfectly mastered reduction that gives a nice balance between fruitiness and gunflint.
Review by Righrum
Whisky Live Paris 2025 - to be tasted again to confirm score and notes The low abv does not impair the profile, it is very well balanced and enjoyable to drink. Tastewise is clearly a Liberation, despite the age
Review by @Pug_spirits
An exceptional product, it reminds me a lot of the 2010 pmg 45%, really good 🥃
