Top review from Oliver:
"Very fruity and inspiring floral nose. Incredibly intense and almost perfume-like. Creamy and multi-layered on the palate. The typical mint is added on the finish. Perfectly integrated alcohol. Excellent T.D.L!"

Top review from RumTaTa:
"Tasted again with two 2002 T.D.Ls The high rating here is fully justified. This one is less minty and herbaceous and much more on the fruity-sweet side, and clearly more elegant (+1). This bottling and the presentation of the bottling raises a lot of expectations. Unfortunately, I don't have a drop of the Private Garden No1 left for a direct comparison and have to rely on my notes and memory. I definitely find the cassis note on the nose. There are also other red fruits (sour cherry) and a fresh note (mint). The alcohol is a shade better integrated than I remember from Private Garden No1. WOW on the palate again! Lots of fruit (cassis and sour cherry), a good portion of barrel influence (oak, slightly bitter), less in the floral direction. Mint is also there but not as much as in PG No1. The transition to the finish is dominated by blackcurrant and barrel notes, which remain medium to long. There is a clear similarity to PG No1 and it is neither better nor worse."

Top review from cigares :
"Dégustation online RumX et Swell de Spirit, mars 2024. Du bois vernis au premier nez, de la mirabelle et de l’abricot, de la banane sur-mûre et de la mangue, du caramel au beurre salé. Les fruits dominent en bouche, surtout l’abricot et la chair de mirabelle. Du boisé mais aussi une belle fraîcheur. La finale est longue et partagée entre les arômes sombres et la fraîcheur et les fruits. Un rhum complexe, évolutif, équilibré. Une très belle sélection."

"28.03.2024 Retasting at Swell de Spirits Masterclass and I stick to my score. Won a few points 😊 ------------------------ #4069 Thanks to a good friend I got these nice Swell de Spirits and they perform pretty well. This is the last of the samples and also a great one. Intense and fruity, one might say dirty as well. Great balance between the elements and I like the rubber note in the back. The empty glass is really nice and I can pick up some herbs and nutts."

"Wow. Definitely in my top 5 best foursquare rums I've had so far. Incredibly drinkable, aromatic and complex. Unusual but awesome is especially this light green chili note that perfectly complements the otherwise typical caramelized coconut, banana chocolate note. I would have bought me in any case gladly! Since you can quickly times accidentally make the bottle empty in one evening😂🤤"

Top review from DomM:
"Nose is very nice with just the right amount of dirt, smokeyness and some fruits and sweetness - well balanced. Same sensation on the palate. Very good cask out of the 98 vintage - intense yet well balanced. The influence of the bourbon cask is quite pronounced."

Top review from crazyforgoodbooze:
"An absolute beast of an agricole Blanc. The 64% is noticeable but overall well integrated. On the nose pure sugar cane with this Guadeloupe partly typical medicinal mineral note and little fruit. Then on the palate pure sugar cane, some tart honeycomb, pear, bitter orange, bitter licorice and vanilla bean without the core. The finish warm and heavy and slightly bitter medicinal. Not quite mine neat but in ti punch it shows what it can do. Heavy, thick and oily, the licorice is suddenly gone and Williams pear and ginger and honeycomb emerge instead. Very tasty!"

"RumX and Swell de Spirit online tasting, March 2024. Dark on the nose, with woody notes, but also fresh with menthol and pastry-like with vanilla and coconut. The attack is quite lively, with pastry, umami, vanilla and pineapple taking center stage. The touch of varnish adds depth. For me, the finish is a little disappointing, as it feels shortened despite its balance and complexity. The empty glass reveals a vegetal, tobacco and even floral side, absent from the palate and nose."

Top review from Oliver:
"Untypical Long Pond. Little ester and rather hints of the barrel-strong Appleton Hearts. Very intense and concentrated. Alcohol could be a bit better integrated. Nevertheless, exciting profile!"

"RumX and Swell de Spirit online tasting, March 2024. Tasted blind, I was surprised by a vegetal, bubble-gum side that reminded me of Savanna. But the depth of aroma and the dirty side belonged elsewhere. Dom found and everything fell into place (everything is much easier when you know ;-) a Caroni from December 1998. The palate is powerful, with aromas of mechanical workshops and burnt caramel. But a myriad of aromas lurk behind, with freshness, fruit, umami and even a floral edge. The extremely long finish is well-balanced, with all the aromas present on the palate and a hint of smoky wood."

"Edit Edit: had another one in the glass at the Swell Masterclass. A really great Fiji. Edit: In the comparison test with other Fiji, this one is in the top third in my opinion and is one of the best Fiji bottlings I've had in a glass. Evaluated quickly when bottling. I like it quite well at first glance. But will have to compete against other Fiji again."

Top review from Leo Tomczak:
"A great rum in my eyes. I love the Velier Isautiers and this one goes in exactly the same direction. Hardly any grassy agricole notes, more a hybrid of molasses and sugar cane juice. The cognac cask comes out positively and provides the sweetness. For me, this is one of the top bottlings from Swell."

"Actually quite ok for the price, but in my opinion it's not really a banger bottling. Which of course perhaps earns a little extra point for the fact that swell released it relatively punctually for a change. Sorry for the sarcasm. My conclusion, a summer sipper for in between, but nothing where I would need a bottle of it now"

"Was soll man zu dieser Swell Abfüllung mal wieder sagen? Als erstes, haltet doch endlich mal eueren Erscheinungstag ein 😉 Ansonsten kann man nicht viel dazu sagen, liefert solide das ab, was man erwartet, aber ein Megabringer ist er sowohl pur als auch im Daiquiri nicht, der sich von anderen Abfüllungen abhebt. Ein guter Durchschnittsrum, der vergleichsweise zu anderen mit gleicher Qualität einen höheren Preis hat, wie üblich bei Swell."

Top review from zabo:
"I would first describe it as a nice experiment. On its own, it is a broadening of the horizon, a new kind of flavor that I am not familiar with. A little bit of mescal and cinnamon, triggered by Mexico, is at the back of my mind. It's also drinkable in a daiquiri, but doesn't completely convince me here either. We'll have to wait and see if it becomes more accessible for me once it's been in the barrel for a few years."
