RumX Advent Calendar 2024: No. 25 Possibly Bardados today? Very nice rum with woody and fruity influences. Very pleasant sweetness in the finish. Alcohol very well integrated, guess around 60%. Another great selection for the calendar.
Review by Djehey
Hmmm... Pour résumer, on peut dire que j'aime pas... Mais vraiment pas. Je n'aurai pas deviné la provenance. J'imagine que cela vient d'ailleurs que T.D.L. Alcoolique, amer et brûlé... Voilà des marqueurs qui ne me font pas rêver ici...
Review by alex
Très beau profile, j’aime bcp. Comme pour le RDL, on sent un peu le mentholé mais c’est pas dominant , donc ça laisse la place à de beaux arômes de caramel, epices… du coup j’apprécie beaucoup 😍c’est superbe
Review by Dr.Django
I rarely had 2006 T.D.Ls, as well as bottlings from Bristol. These T.D.L. also taste very rare. Blindly, I would have put these more in the Spanish direction. I still like them, but nobody should expect a fruity micro-bomb here. Cask 472/2 is very creamy on the palate and somewhat woody and bitter on the finish, which is not necessarily a bad thing. Cask 472/1, on the other hand, is somewhat more linear and even less exciting.
Review by Lot-NAS
Quite a decent TDL, molasse, vanilla, some spices and hints of menthol / mint leaves on top. The latter adds a freshness that I really like.
Review by Serge
RumX Adventskalender 2024 … Aufarbeitung, Türe 25 Nett, aber haut mich nicht um – bin jedoch auch kein TDL Fan. Nicht so minzig (gut) mit schönen Karamell Noten und paar trockenen Früchten. Gute Süße.

Edit: RumX Advent Calendar 2024 Bonus 1 I didn't realize it, but due to the long (involuntary) standing time today I had the dirty Caroni notes with me. I still think it's delicious. A nice TDL for me. Just needs a little time in the glass, but then it's very enjoyable. Edit: Tasted it again on 19.09.23, after I had the Swell Private Garden #4 in my glass before. I find this one a lot better. This one has more power and after a while it unfolds its full range.
Review by primus
RumX Adventskalender 2024 Türchen Nummer 25: In der Nase überwiegt das Holz, daneben etwas Karamell und Lakritze. Am Gaumen bleibt dieser Rum integer mit einer nicht aufdringlichen Süße baut er das holzige und schokoladige weiter aus.
Review by Righrum
Pretty difficult this one. I'd say an old Demerara due to the caramel notes and the liquorice that in the mouth is really noticeable, while on the nose is mixed with wood and resembles liquorice sticks.
Review by Jakob
Taut blend of barrel notes, caramel, peppery spice, candied fruit and roasted aromas. The palate also has a pleasant nuttiness, but also a somewhat rough alcoholic sharpness. A rum with appealing aromas that only lacks the final balance.
Review by cigares
Calendrier de l’Avent RumX, jour 25. Un nez avec de l’alcool, du bois, de la vanille et du sucre brun. S’y ajoute de la banane et un côté herbes sèches. La bouche est agréable et avec de la fraîcheur (menthol) qui n’était pas marquante au nez. Plus de fruits aussi, fruits secs mais aussi fruits tropicaux. La finale est courte même si quelques arômes persistent plus longtemps : boisé amer et sucré brun. Un rhum plus complexe qu’il n’y paraît au premier abord.
Review by Johannes
A rather one-dimensional TDL with a lot of column. Rather chocolaty Panama notes.
Review by Leo Krüper
Very beautiful, rare TDL with an independent profile. Complex finish with some changes of direction. Good PLV
Review by Buddudharma
Messebewertung Village 25: Nett, aber ohne großen Wiedererkennungdwert. Schwerpunkt Karamell, aber nach etwas Standzeit gewinnt der Rum und es kommen Minze und Gewürze dazu. Holt mich trotzdem nur bedingt ab.
Review by Agricoler
Tag 25 RumX Adventskalender Ich würde auf einen TDL oder Mount Gay tippen. Eine gewisse pflanzliche Note ist zu spüren (evtl. Minze).Im Hintergrund ein wenig Banane mit ein bisschen Zitrusnoten. Gefällt mir insgesamt sehr gut. Ein absolut solider Rum der eher vom super Bourboneinfluss lebt.
