Santos Dumont XO Gewürztraminer
Most people land in the same place: this is sweet, coconut-heavy and floral, and whether you love it depends on your tolerance for sugar. Expect vanilla, caramel, ripe banana and a big coconut note, with warm spice underneath. Several tasters compare it to A.H. Riise and openly call it more a rum liqueur than a rum — one even reads it as a fairground candy in a glass.
The community says- Big coconut note

What a nose, fruity floral and a sweetness that immediately reminds you of the fairground. On the palate then not quite as spectacular but still very awesome. A great sweet mix with warm fruity notes and a subsequent warm sweet finish that leaves warmth.

A rum with intense coconut flavor, lots of sweetness and a bit of sharpness. Surely a highlight for all who like coconut. For me, it's too sweet and the coconut note too dominant. More like a liqueur than a rum.
Review by LukaŽiga
7:On the nose, the first impression we have is sweet&spicy, roasted and thick, syrupy with strong citruses as orange, orange peel and warm spices as ginger, vanilla, a pinch of cinammon and candies. As we air it, there are tropical fruits with ripe banana, mango, some coconut, milk chocolate, caramelized nuts and a very soft touch of honey, gingerbread cookie, as we notice molasses, in connection to herbal hints, underneath the rum is slightly medicinal. 6:On the palate, the attack is warm, sweet and buttery, a bit acidic with oranges and apricots, mango, combined with coconut, vanilla and spicy notes, a hint of wood, a bit dry. Some floral notes and roastedness show after a rest, as a bit tanninic. 5,6:The finish is short, sweet, dry with warm-spicy notes, vanilla, tropical fruits, some wood.
Review by rum_sk
Fairly sweet but right on the edge. Prominent coconut flavor which is something I am a huge fan of. In this combination I do not mind sweetnes and I can forgive a lot. Taste is very reminiscent of A.H. Riise but not as thick on the palate and rather spicier. Considering this an aperitif or a digestif, and that is ok, that is where this one fulfills its role.
Review by Old Sport
Great nose and sweet taste. It reminds me of my childhood, especially the moments when I ate caramel candies. Nose: milky notes, fudge, toffee, milk chocolate, advocaat Taste: milk with honey, ginger, milk chocolate, caramel, pepper Finish: lots of spices, ginger, pepper, cloves, dark chocolate
Review by Portman
Here you can taste the blatantly sweet and spicy Riise flavors again, altogether worth a tasting.
Review by Pedro Jnv
Sweet, easy to drink, but for some it might be too sweet and fragrant
Review by hubo
Rather light color, pale yellow, initially you smell wine or grapes, then some coconut and tonka bean come through. In taste, it reminds me of wine gums, without the tax notes. Clearly recognizable tropical fruits. Distinct sweetness paired with pleasant spiciness.
Review by Kay Meertens
Coconut, vanilla sugar and canned peach in the nose. Slightly buttery. In the taste candied orange peel and a light spiciness, but most of all really sweet. A bit of canned pineapple in the finish, and more coconut.
Review by Vincent Gourvest
Very round on the palate since it's a rum liqueur. The 40° are not felt. It's a very nice discovery.
Review by Émilien HENRY
Beginner in rum. Maybe too strong in alcohol. But well, sweet! Bought for 72€ in a shop... Maybe slightly expensive.

Quite sweet, I like it
