#7313 16.09.2026 Running a few more samples while watching Myth Busters from the very beginning. Decent bottling with a good price tag. I think most can actually drink this rum. Round and light profile with fruits, caramel, leather, nuts, spice, roated wood, chocolate, tannins, grass and a dry and warm finish.

The Familia is supposed to be a single cask bottling, but it tastes slightly sweetened and flat.

7.7/10

An Agricole leaning towards an XO if you compare it to an Agricole from Martinique. Lots of dry aromas like dried fruits, wood, leather, tobacco, some chocolate. Earthy notes are also present. On the palate then spicy and dry. Available in Spain for under 40€, which is a good price.

Aged rum 

Avg Rating 8.0/10 over 15,000 Rums

Aged rum is where the spirit earns its complexity. In a tropical warehouse a barrel loses 6 to 10 percent of its contents to evaporation every year, which is why an 8-year Caribbean rum can taste deeper than a 20-year Scotch. This page gathers every rum on RumX that has spent real time in wood, with community ratings to separate the genuinely mature from the merely dark.
