Review by crazyforgoodbooze
🤤🇧🇧🇯🇲 exactly what I hoped for and yet did not expect: Barbados trumps with coconut, caramel, almonds and vanilla and is supported by New Yarmouth typical banana, pineapple, raw cookie dough, some tangerine zest and ester in just the right concentration. very very harmoniously tuned and both for sipping and for cocktails (MaiTai or especially Royal Bermuda yacht club are class with it!🤤) at an insanely good PLV perfectly matched! very cool! 🙏😍
Review by Jan Lu
Ich weiß auch nicht, dieser Rum Ist für mich schwer einzuordnen. Riecht angenehmer als er schmeckt. Eine Mischung aus trocken würzig und bitter. Dazu kommt der etwas scharfkantige ABV. Leider gar nicht mein Fall. Geht eher in die Richtung eines Supermarkt-Rums.
Review by HenryL
Delicious thing, I think it's also very good for a slow introduction to Jamaica. At 50%, it's a great blend from two of the biggest rum nations. Not something to really get to grips with, but very nice for a cozy evening. And with a great price-performance ratio
Review by Pavel Spacek
It tastes like watery Rumbullion! without sugar
Review by Tim
A blend from Jamaica and Guyana/Barbados? Esters, tropical fruits such as banana and coconut, chocolate and caramel. Spicy and dry in the mouth, with a smooth caramel sweetness. The flavors from Guyana/Barbados predominate in this blend.
Review by Oliver
Harmonious blend from Barbados (main component) and Jamaica. Typical Foursquare associations on the nose with a few tropical fruits. On the palate, the Jamaican component comes out a little more. A great blend for relaxed enjoyment. However, the real strength lies in high-quality drinks.
Review by Timo Groeger
Trifft auch grad nicht so ganz meinen Geschmack. Ist geschmacklich ziemlich süß dieser Rum. Wir haben hier Vanille und Kokosnuss in der Nase und am Gaumen. Ester macht sich auch bemerkbar, sowie etwas Vanille am Gaumen.

Verkostet im Rahmen des RA-Online-Tastings zur RumX-Lotterie 06/2023. Angenehme Mischung aus Sahnebonbons und Orange. Auch pur gut zu trinken.
Review by Johannes
Im Abgang ist er mir etwas zu adstringierend mit einer bitteren Orangennote.
Review by BTHHo 🥃
In the taste, I can smell Barbados the most, which smoothly alternates the taste of Jamaica. It's not the worst, it's quite suitable for a quiet evening drink with friends. I would like to express my gratitude to Rum Artesanal for the flavor sets 🙏🏻
Review by Leo Krüper
Hintenraus eine fiese Jägermeister Note. Vorne ganz nett, wie dieser alte FRC den es da mal gab für kleines Geld.
Review by Rene Pfeiffer
Tolle Mischung aus trocken, vanilligen, Barbados und funky, fruchtig, Jamaica. Runde Sache. Gutes PLV.

#4190 This rum has an edge to it and I think it'll make a pretty good rum for mixers. Medium fruity with wood and some spices. The palate is warm/spicy and the finish medium long. The empty glass is pretty strong on the toffee and light nutts.
Review by MarcT
I like this, it is a good composition between the mild taste of Barbados and Jamaican Funk. Well balanced, not overpowering in any way, and pleasant to drink. It should really shine in Cocktails, but I haven't done that yet. As uncomplicated companion for a quiet evening ideal as well, as it does not demand full attention. Quite reasonable Price as well.
