A.H. Riise Non Plus Ultra Sauternes Cask Finish
Peach, orange peel and vanilla lead the way here, soft and heavily sweetened from its Sauternes cask finish. One member nailed it as a "peach bomb," and most agree it drinks like a dessert more than a sipping rum. Pleasant and fruity, but several tasters note the 25 years don't add much depth over the cheaper Sauternes bottling.
The community says- Juicy peach and orange
- Soft and mild
- Keep in mind: Very sweet

From community reviews · summarized with AI
Very sweet, peachy dessert rum Loved as a sweet, fruity dessert rum — peach, orange and vanilla up front. The catch: it's very sweet and short on complexity for its age.

Most helpful positive review
A very fruity and sweet rum matured in sauternes casks which is obvious in nose and palate. Too sweet but still nicely balanced between sweet, fruit and barrel flavours.

This is my third NPU Nose: immediately aromas of citrus fruits (oranges/mandarins) and overripe bananas rise! These overshadow everything else, quite pleasant. Palate: Cointreau is my first thought, only milder and softer, then something bitter joins (grated orange peel) and a strong, but not quite as unnatural sweetness as in the other two NPUs, the finish is short and unspectacular, it stays true to itself (orange and sweet). Acceptable as a dessert drink, but nothing more!
Review by Daniel
A delicious peach bomb, mild and outstanding as a dessert rum. Despite much longer aging, I miss the flavor added value compared to the normal XO Sauternes Cask. It does not noticeably increase in complexity, so you have to weigh whether you want to pay the considerable extra price for the at least beautiful glass decanter.
