Review by Montana
A smell of molasses, light roasted aromas, dark chocolate. A fairly oily body, quite sweet, vanilla with molasses, somewhat alcoholic.

Alc is high and you can taste it
Review by Yannick CULTOT
A rum with obvious notes of coffee, vanilla and a hint of apricot. Quite sweet despite the high alcohol content. The finish is long and smooth.

Oliver · FounderBy rum lovers, for rum lovers
I'm Oliver, and RumX began in 2018 as a small passion project in Stuttgart, back then under the name Rum Tasting Notes.
What began as my digital tasting diary is now the world's most comprehensive platform for rum fans, today carried by a small team with Jakob, Lukas and Katharina, with Robert supporting us as a freelancer. We combine the collective intelligence of our community with an integrated marketplace, so you can choose with confidence, without paperwork, detours, or expert jargon.
