Most tasters call this a pleasant surprise — an easygoing sipper that punches above its 46%. The Muscat cask leaves nougat, raisins and roasted chestnut on the nose, with smoky wood and nuts on the palate. Not hugely complex, but round and drinkable. One reviewer found it just too sweet and woody, and wine-cask skeptics may pass. Whisky drinkers tend to like this one.
The community says- Smoky wood, nuts
- Muscat dried fruit
- But: Slightly hot

Surprisingly complex tropical matured Fiji rum that comes despite the only 46% not too thin. Nice combination of smoke, wine influence from the muscatel finish and slightly burnt caramel, tropical fruits like papaya, some mocha and pepper. Very round!

Too sweet and woody
Review by mto75
Discovered this older sample. I didn't really have any great expectations, but I was pleasantly surprised. The muscatel barrel has really made a difference here. Nougat, raisins and roasted chestnuts on the nose. This compensates quite well for the rather low ABV. Uncomplicated and tasty on the palate. All in all, a good, relaxed sipper.
Review by Christian Rudt
Probably by its already smoky profile an ideal partner to the cigar. The finish also provides a slight sweet impact with neat flavors of dried fruit.
Review by Alexander Rasch
My RumRatings review from 5 years ago: On the nose, the rum is very balanced and harmonious. Complex fine ester notes of fermented banana and a bit of wood glue. The rum feels heavy with wood influence and lots of fruit and caramel. There's a lot to discover here. On the palate, the picture repeats. The rum has a nice body and the 46% ABV doesn't stand out negatively. The rum has a nice balance of fruit, wood, smoke, and bourbon. Also a nice spice with roasted nuts and vanilla. The finish is pleasant with more wood influence, some bitterness, and a touch of leather. For me, a great pleasant rum with good complexity. The rum is not an ester bomb but a successful blend that combines a lot of spice with great sweetness. Since Ratu is also a Fiji rum bottled in Fiji and the price of 60-70 euros for 16 years of aging is reasonable, I might buy a bottle.
Review by Michael Janek
2.5.2026 Libošovice Vélet XXIX The nose is not very pronounced, maybe a little bit of banana peel and nuts. The taste is gentle and sweet at first, after swallowing it slightly roughens the tongue, you can feel the 46%, then you taste the guts and full fruity flavor, the tongue and lips pleasantly tingle and you want to taste it again.
Review by Jens Mulzer
Nose: Dried fruits like raisins, woody, spicy, toasty, and light vegetal notes. Taste: Also slightly woody, spicy, and toasty. Plus light notes of dark chocolate, leather, vanilla, and a subtle agricole touch. The finish is rather short.
Review by MarcT
A nice surprise this one. It did taste quite hot for its 46%, but went to a smooth ride over the palate soon afterwards. It is not overly complex, but has enough to it to qualify as a decent sipper. I am not so much into most wine cask finishes and would not buy this while there are so many other options, but it still is good.
Review by Motte
An insider tip for whisky drinkers. Well balanced with a clear focus on dark aromas of smoky wood and nuts.

Expert review by Zucker und Zeste
Aromas of dried fruit and smoky wood. In the background there are still nuances of whiskey and a subtle sweetness that certainly comes from the muscatel barrel.
