Ron de Jeremy XO

Here's the surprise: for a rum this heavily sweetened, the sugar doesn't fully smooth things out. The nose is the strong part — caramel, cola, a nutty edge — but the palate turns flat and burnt-sugary, with a chocolate note and a bit of alcohol sharpness poking through. One member pegged it close to Diplomático 12. Sweet Panama style, plenty of sugar, not much depth.

How does Ron de Jeremy XO taste?

Summarized by AI from 84 community reviews.

Very sweet, flat, burnt-caramel Panama sipper Opinions run low. Most find it very sweet with a flat, burnt-caramel palate and a sharpness the sugar never quite rounds off. The nose gets the most credit.

The smell is still the best thing about this rum, then in the mouth is the total crash. With almost 100g / L actually already a liqueur, yet the sugar does not manage to round off the sharpness in the mouth and aftertaste. The extreme sweetness and spiciness is irritating and one wonders why so much sugar was added at all if a certain spiciness was intended. This rum is a strange accident.

Simply a paradise for beginners. My first rum, a sweet memory. Now under the name Hell. It seems to me that under this name it’s not as good anymore.

For me, it's an interesting rum. Until I looked up how much sugar this rum contains, I wouldn't have guessed such a high number at all. Of course, you can tell that it is colored and sweetened.

Expert review by The Fat Rum Pirate

This is a catastrophic fuck up by those responsible for the blending. No doubt like countless other shit "rums", it well sell by the bucketload. No doubt the faux reviewers will lap up their free samples and give it high praise indeed. Let them get on with it but if...
