    How does TRC South Pacific Fiji 2001 taste?

    Textbook funky Fiji 2001
    Who is this rum for?

    If you enjoy Jamaican-style funk or other Fiji 2001 bottlings, this is a slightly drier, more tea-and-wood driven take that still delivers the glue, rubber and tropical fruit you’re looking for.

    Not really suitable for

    Beginners, those sensitive to 55%+ ABV, or drinkers who prefer sweet, smooth rums without glue/rubber funk or a dry, woody, slightly astringent finish.

    Recht zurückhaltende Nase. Am Gaumen aber schön ausgewogen.

    RumX Fiji Crosstasting April 2024 Platz 8/8 Insgesammt die schwächste der Abfüllung aller 8 Samples. Jedoch ist anzumerken, dass die ganzen 2001 Fijis ein aussergewöhnliches Qualitätslevel aufweisen. Auch der schwächste im Line-Up ist immer noch sehr gut!

    RumX Community Tasting Fiji 2001. Un nez avec beaucoup d’épices, du macis en particulier, du vernis et des fruits tropicaux en arrière-plan avec surtout de la banane trop mûre. De la pâtisserie et un côté grillé/rôti. La bouche est marquée par le bois de cèdre, les épices et les fruits tropicaux. Un bouche plutôt du côté lourd. La finale est longue, mais seulement sur le bois de cèdre et le macis. Un rhum plutôt sombre mais équilibré, sans défauts, sauf peut-être un boisé un peu trop marqué et un léger manque de complexité.

    Fiji 2001 Community Tasting – großen Dank an Jakob für’s organisieren dieser Blindverkostung. Ein toller Vintage und ein Vergleich nicht ohne Überraschung. Schlusslichter waren für mich die beiden Rum Artesanal, die ich beide nicht ausgetrunken habe. Besonders störend war eine unangenehme Wachholder Fehlnote (stark ausgeprägt beim rx15398 etwas besser aber noch störend beim rx7779). Dann für mich als eigentliches Schlusslicht (also sehr gut / mit den richtigen Markern), aber eben nicht so toll, wie die anderen) der Rum Cask rx479. Überaschenderweise landed auf dem nächsten Platz für mich der Isla del Ron, der ja schon einen kleinen Referenz-Tatus in meinem Herzen hat, seit ich ihn probiert habe. Aber er wurde im Blindtest überholt vom leckeren Whisky Jury (rx13025) und dann vom sensationelle. cave Guildive (rx1717). Der Cave Guildive stellt für mich den Sieger des klassischen Fiji 2002 Profils dar und ist wirklich top. Höher bewertet habe ich dann nur noch den Flag LMDW Antipodes (rx13440) … dieser ist dann deutlich holziger aber auch ultralecker. Der war auch blind klar erkennbar und machte das Photofinish Millimeter hinter dem Plantation rx11133, der wohl auch so herausgestochen ist, weil er so un-Fiji2001 war und eine tolle Kleber-Karamel Guyana Nase hat. Fazit: Typische Fiji Sieger sind der Cave Guildive auf der fruchtig-Honig-feelgood-Seite und der Flag auf der holzigen. der Plantation ist der Wildcard Sieger. Die beiden RA Abfüllung sind die beider, die weit unter dem Niveau der anderen beiden bleiben.
