I have never seen this bottle until it was in the tasting. A great rum with nicely balanced fruits and spices. The wood is wonderfully balanced with chocolate and roasted notes.

RumX Adventskalender 23.11.2022: Blind auf eine deutlich höhere ABV getippt. Sehr trocken, mit gefälligem Profil. Schöner Agricole.

8.1/10

kommt fast etwas jugendlich daher, trotz der 17 Jahre im Fass. Viel grünes Gemüse an der Nase. Am Gaumen dann deutlich würziger. Die 43% passen hier gut. Nicht schlecht, aber auch noch deutlich Luft nach oben, wenn man zB mit dem la Flibuste vergleicht.

Lovely nose and initially quite delicious (sweet pastry agricole flavors with some dryness from te wood). But pretty thin and the fun doesn’t last that long:

7.8/10

Agricole mit altem Holz. Am Gaumen würzig und grasig. Das Alter kommt in der Trockenheit durch. Im Mund halten die tollen und intensiven Geschmäcker leider nur gut einige Sekunden. Ansonsten wäre es ein guter Tropfen. Recht Süss.
