Rumclub Private Selection Ed. 63 (The Beast) 2026
One member calls it "die große Wundertüte" — a mystery blend where nobody knows the exact components, and half the fun is guessing (Hampden, Trinidad, Guyana all get named). Tropical fruit and well-behaved esters lead, backed by caramel, coconut, menthol and a glue note. At 62% the alcohol sits surprisingly well. Complex but never a chore to drink.
The community says- Well-integrated alcohol
- Complex layered blend
- But: High 62% ABV

Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
Really finely balanced, yet bold blend with clear low-ester notes and very good alcohol integration, whose exact composition is actually known by only one person. After tasting on different days, I would guess New Yarmouth and St. Lucia as components, but there could also be at least one Agricole woven in, maybe from Guadeloupe? I'm very curious about the announced reveal after about 6 months.
Review by Timo Groeger
RumX Sample Set Premium. Now Olli is getting it, uh no, this one is from JulianP. Not much to say about this rather alcoholic rum, otherwise lots of herbs, but also tropical fruits and caramel.

#6936 19.06.2026 Brought this one to my friend's place to give it a go and what a wonderful rum and then it has a nice price tag. This is a really nice rum with a good price tag in my mind. Nice esters with overripe fruits, glue, wood, spice, light mint and some faint rubber.
Review by zabo
Die große Wundertüte aus Berlin. Auf die Auflösung darf man wohl gespannt sein. Würde hier tippen, dass Hampden vertreten ist, evtl ein Foursquare und etwas aus Trinidad mit dabei ist. Zumindest so mein erster Gedanke. Mein Fazit, sehr gut gemacht und süffig.
Review by RumTaTa
Sehr spannend, eine erzwungene Blindverkostung, gute Idee! Nase: sehr funky (Jamaika/Mhoba), gelbe Früchte, eine Spur Agricole? Weitere Aromen im Hintergrund aber schwer am Klebstoff vorbei zu kommen und noch schwerer zuzuordnen Gaumen: sehr süffig, sehr ausgewogen und komplex, ich meine Hampden (könnte auch Mhoba sein) und T.D.L herauszuschmecken. Guyana meine ich beim nächsten Schluck zu erkennen. Nachklang: funky und fruchtig, Holz, süß und süffig, trocken Sehr ansprechender Blend, die funky Noten stehen im Vordergrund, bin auf die Auflösung gespannt
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Der erste encrypted Rum vom RumClub. Die Nase sagt für mich eindeutig Hampden, darunter ist nicht viel wahrzunehmen auch nach einer Stunde atmen zumindest nicht in normalen nosing Glas. Am Gaumen dann eine ziemliche Aromenexplosion die definitiv sagt: hier ist Hampden drin aber nicht nur! Ich tippe in Sachen auf zusätzliche Anteile Belize und oder Barbados, sowie Guyana und Fidji, sowie etwas Trinidad. Funky, leichte ester, Kokosnuss, Minze, Kräuter, Gummi und plastik, Butter Karamell und viel Klebstoff. In Summe definitiv ein höchst spannender und komplexer Blend mit gut integriertem Alkoholgehalt. Bin auf die finale Auflösung sehr gespannt!
Review by GuybrushThreepwood
A blend of unspecified components. Even without knowing the ingredients, I’d dare to say that there are probably some older parts in here. A nice tropical fruity ester note is pretty clear. But it stays at a pleasant, easy-going level. I also pick up some caramel, subtle vanilla notes, a bit of menthol, and a hint of coconut. The nose stays interesting and doesn’t get boring even after an hour. With plenty of time in the glass, I think I smell a bit of Guyana. On the palate, it’s full-bodied, bold, and lives up to its name or theme. Very well done, truly complex, and nicely balanced.
Review by Master P
Starts off on the nose with lots of power and funk. I'd say Hampden, Long Pond, a splash of NY, Foursquare RC57, and maybe a bit of Panama to round it off at the end. The aromas come together well and make this noble blend a great, easy-drinking overall package. Too bad I only ordered one bottle in the stash. I'm really curious about Dirk's reveal.
Review by Mentalo
Rumclub Edition 63. Bei The Beast denke ich immer sofort an die sehr experimentelle Caroni Abfüllung von S.B.S . Sowas erwartet einen hier nicht. Das ist ein toller, feinabgestimmter Blend mit schön herausgearbeiteter Fruchtnote und sehr guter Alkoholintegration. Der fruchtige Anteil (vermutlich Jamaika) dominiert, aber es kommen auch immer wieder andere Noten durch (etwas karamellig, Menthol)
Review by Thomas
Wonderful blend of fine rums. Ingredients are not broken down, but they are very harmonious. The first sip truly lives up to its name. The second is slightly milder and very well-balanced. Stuff for adult rum connoisseurs.
Review by Johannes
Mega Blend! Hampden bzw New Yarmouth ?! Dominieren auf jeden Fall. Gleichzeitig kommt als Gegenpol ein erdender Rum, vielleicht Guyana dazu. Trinidad, Fiji und oder Lucia können auch noch mit im Boot sein. Aus jeden Fall die hohe Kunst des Blendens!
Review by Michael Schou
#1793 06-06-2026 - Rate 8.5 Rumclub Private Selection tasting Sønderborg First extra bottle at the tasting. Eight rums are not enough 😂 I liked this one very much. Have some Jamaica and Trinidad in nose and taste. But we don’t know what it is
Review by Rumbaer
Sample vom Rum Depot Berlin. Die Nase macht schon Spaß. Fruchtige Noten, leicht funky, schöne Ester. Am Gaumen dann Peng! Früchte, Klebstoff, würzigkeit, im Nachgang leicht kräutrig. Die Früchte klingen nach. Alkohol mega gut eingebunden. Schönes Produkt. Da hätte ich gerne eine Flasche ;-)
Review by Frank
Zeit für das Beast. Vielleicht wird Dirk die genaue Zusammensetzung in zwei Wochen auf dem GRF lüften. Nase: sehr frisch, angenehme Ester und viel Zitrusfrucht, Zitrone, Limette und Orange. Geht etwas in Richtung Zitronat und erinnert dadurch sowohl an Spüli als auch an Früchtebrot. Mit dabei sind auch Maracuja und Banane. Hier ist definitiv Jamaika drin, HD und vielleicht alter LP oder NY. Er wirkt aber auch leicht vergoren und pflanzlich mit Honig, daher könnte ich mir auch Ghana oder sogar Mhoba vorstellen, aber von denen gibts ja noch nichts älteres. Dann könnte auch ein Clairin drinnen sein. Das ist erstmal das für mich Vordergründige in der Nase. 8,6 Gaumen: oh wow, hier geht aber noch deutlich mehr ab als in der Nase. Zunächst viel säuerlich-süße Zitrusfrüchte, wieder mit Limette, Zitrone und Orange, aber auch Maracuja und Banane. Etwas Spüli. Darüber und daneben aber auch ordentlich Ester. Er hat eine leicht ölige und speckige Textur. Hinten Kräuter und pflanzliches Richtung Getreide mit einem Hauch Minze. Da kann tatsächlich vieles drin sein. Jamaika auf jeden (HD und LP, vielleicht NY), irgendwas wie Mhoba, Ghana oder Clairin wäre möglich, TDL oder sogar PM könnte auch sein. Wir werden sehen. Auf jeden Fall lecker. 8,8
Review by Icebird
I find the new Rumclub bottling No. 63 super interesting and very tasty, especially because you don't know exactly what it is, which makes it a lot of fun to figure out what kinds are blended in. I definitely taste Jamaica and would say Trinidad :D I'm curious about the reveal in 6 months 🙈
Review by primus
Zum Reinlegen. Toller Ester und Frucht in der Nase, da denkt man gleich an Jamaica. Am Gaumen super gute Reife und wirklich schöne dreckige Noten. Der Abgang bleibt lange da. Willkommener Gast im Rumregal!
Review by Dominic Lutz
A great cuvée, I'm curious about the reveal. I assume a long tropical aging for the base. Very well-balanced, the ester notes aren't just for nerds. Interesting: with water, the nose becomes rounder and the ester notes come out more on the palate, but I prefer it neat.
Review by Stephan Seiler
Absolutely wonderful what Dirk Becker has put together here. I had to try it right away in a Mai Tai and was very impressed.
Review by Carlitooo
An amazing rum, very complex, wonderfully integrated esters, but also many other aromas to discover
