How does Old Brothers & Excellence Rhum Rhum J.M 21 years 1999 taste?

Aggregated from 28 community reviews.

Complex, Armagnac-style aged agricole For curious explorers into agricole, this 21‑year J.M offers a surprisingly complex, Armagnac-like profile at just 43%. Expect dried fruits, cherry, vanilla, wood spice and light bitterness in an easy-sipping package praised by RumX members.

Perfect for

Agricole fans and whisky/Armagnac drinkers who enjoy dry, woody, complex spirits with dried fruits, cherry and cacao rather than sweetness or high proof power.

Less suitable for

Beginners or those wanting sweet, powerful rums; the low ABV, woody bitterness and dry profile can feel thin or austere if you prefer rich, sugary sippers.

Im Vergleich zum Kirsch JM ist dieser etwas flacher, etwas dünn, deutlich Holz, grenzwertig bitter, weniger fruchtig.

Wahnsinns Rhum J.M. Viel mehr Aromatik bekommt man in 43% vielleicht nicht unter. Die Nase ist angenehm holzig mit schönen Tönen von Vanille, Zimt, vielen Trockenfrüchten und Piment. Auch ich habe den Eindruck einen Armagnac im Glas zu haben. Am etwas zu sanften Gaumen kommen zunächst Holz und Zitrusfrüchte. Die schöne Süße wird durch Vanille, Rosinen und braunen Zucker beflügelt und von dunklen Beeren, Kirsche und Zimt abgelöst. Im ebenso sanften aber vielschichtigen Abgang habe ich viele Fassnoten, Karamell, Vanille, Kardamom, und Leder. Gegen Ende dann etwas Kamille und ganz entfernt eine leichte Kaffeenote. Sehr lecker und interessant. Danke an @Skyfly für das Sample 😊

Nach dem ersten Riechen hat man den Eindruck einen Armagnac im Glas zu haben. Nach etwas Ruhezeit gesellen sich Trockenfrüchte (insbesondere Rosinen), Holz und Vanille dazu. Im Mund dominieren Holz und Brauner Zucker; Nuancen von Rosinen, Kirsche und Zimt sind zu schmecken. Im Abgang viel Holz und etwas Kardamom. Für seine geringe ABV ist der Alkohol Recht dominant, aber Klasse integriert.

Ein 21 jähriger Rhum J.M ist eine Ansage! Die Nase ist absolut grandios. Für Connaisseuren, die stundenlang am Tastingglas riechen könnten wäre das hier ein Hochgenuss. Sehr komplex mit immer neuen Eindrücken beim Anriechen. Am Gaumen sehr mild, holzig bitter, grasig und fruchtig. Leider ohne Power, die Bitteraromen übernehmen hier einen großen Teil. Dieser Rum mit mehr Umdrehungen wäre sehr interessant. Vielen Dank für das Sample @Mto
