Review by BTHHo 🥃
The taste offers lovely soft and gentle notes of matured sweet oak, combined with tropical fruits and sultanas. The finish is deep with sweet tannins and caramelized honey.
Review by Torsten vom Endt
Fruchtig und Süß. „On the Rocks“ ein Genuss
Review by LukaŽiga
7,4:On the nose, very special and unique, immediately a refined sweetness. Clear aromas from the barrel storage, fine spice, woody note, relatively fruity with apricot, peach, lime & lemon, hints of marshmallow & honey, hazelnut, a hint of spiciness with ginger. 6,5:On the palate, a sweet sugar cane, oak is noticed, a note of sweet wine comes through, very full-bodied & aromatic, fruity with apricot, peach and light grapes, fresh aromas with hints of lime & coconut, nuttiness, raisins, sweet hints of light caramel & marshmallows, light acidity, fine but distinctive spice with some peppery note. 5,5:The finish is quite short with strong sugary touch...
Review by DaErdi
Sehr leckerer Rum, harmonisch und herrlich abgerundet
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Wow, this is almost sugar water with fruit taste 😊 I'd classify this as a good beginner rum or a dessert rum. I'm pretty sure you can use it for baking as well.
Review by Kryštof
A little more complex than I thought. Very balanced and surprising at every turn. First Brazilian production I've tried and it's pretty distinguishable. Notes of nuts and raisins are very strong but I like them a lot. The nose doesn't set you up for much but the taste is very fun and fresh.
Review by heckto🥃
Sogar für mich als Einsteiger ist er zu süß und auch die Kokosnoten stören mich. Am Gaumen tropische Früchte, Vanille und Honig. Im Abgang bleibt ein angenehmer Rosinengeschmack zurück. Nicht der Beste von Santos Dumont aber trotzdem OK.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Wirkt wie eine Mischung aus billigem Dessert Wein und hierin eingelegten getrockneten Aprikosen, seltsam blumig, süß und parfümiert wirkend am Gaumen. Insgesamt auch einfach zu süß und säuerlich, dazu ist der Alkohol ungewöhnlich präsent... Nee danke.
Review by Business Liner Ralf
Much too sweet, why do you have to add so much sugar here. For me disappointing as a fan A.H. Rise. They don't need this. Too bad
Review by Johannes
Sehr süß mit künstlichen Aromen wie Backgewürzen, Vanille, Zimt.
Review by Dirk E.
schöner ausgewogener Rum
Review by Schnapsschuesse
Aaah, das riecht schon pappsüß. Inklusive Marshmallownote und Rosinen-Hefezopf. Dahinter ein Potpourri aus Früchten. Vollmilchschokolade kommt nach etwas Luft auch noch dazu. Schlieren wie 'ne Nacktschneckenspur. Wie erwartet Zucker pur. Und hat trotzdem noch alkoholische Schärfe. Vielleicht sind's auch Gewürze. Es säuft im Zucker ab. Zuckerrohrsaftbasis und Süßweinfaß kann man sagen, redet sich damit aber raus. Ist mehr so Franzbrötchenkruste auf Osterbrot getropft. Rosine in Zucker. Ich werd's nie verstehen wie man sich sowas hinter's Visier dübeln und dann was von 'Aromen' fabulieren kann. Als Likör würde ich dem Ding sogar 'ne Chance geben - aber das? Das ist frech. Himmel. Und dann ist der Abgang noch nicht mal existent. Flutsch und weg.
Review by Kamil Čmiel
Velice sladký rum. Ani nevím jestli jej zařadit vůbec mezi rumy. Každopádně skvělý pro začátečníky. Má jen jedno ale. Všechny chutnají dost stejně jak i A.H.riise.😁
Review by AllanbergDK
No my style
Review by Kay Meertens
Quite a different one. Ricola herbal candy, propolis ('bee glue') and coffee candy ('hopjes'). A little orange. Caramel in the finish. It's sweet like all Riises, but in this taste profile that fits quite nicely.
