Aroma visualization from community tastings
Richland Rum Single Estate Old South Georgia
Whiskey drinkers curious about rum will feel at home here — several tasters said it smells and drinks more like an Irish or Tennessee whiskey than a rum. Made from sugar cane honey, it's fruity with cherry, plum and vanilla up front, then a spicy, oaky, slightly smoky palate. At 43% it drinks hot, with an afterburn a few people flagged. Divisive, not universally loved.
The community says- Cherry and plum nose
- But: Strong afterburn

Whiskey-like cane sipper, hot for 43% People are genuinely split: some find it a warm, fruity whiskey-like sipper, others call it sharp and not their thing. Best after resting 15 minutes; less interesting mixed.

Most helpful positive review
Another wonderful rum from Richland. A smooth well balanced rum once rested for at least 15 minutes. The nose is intense and balanced. Fruity from berries and dried fruits. There is also a spicy part and some wine. The palate is rounded and smooth and compared to the classic the oak and spice boosted quite a bit. Spice with vanilla, brow sugar and berries. The finish is long, has a slight bitterness to the oaky/vanilla lead out.

This has been described by some as having an agricole flavor, of which I am generally not fond. I did not, however, pick up on it, and instead enjoyed the sweetness that came with the first sip. The afterburn was strong, and the rum was not as interesting when mixed.
Review by TriRoel
Smells like an irish whisky, tastes really strong for 43abb. Medium long aftertaste
Review by David B
Pleasant surprise. Reminds me of whisky.
Review by Pavel Spacek
Pretty similar to Jack Daniels
Review by Dirk E.
Certainly a rum, but not my cup of tea. I found it hot and warm at the beginning and only later did I recognize a little chocolate and tobacco. It was much more interesting on the nose.
