RumX community voice

RumX users celebrate Guadeloupe for expressive cane juice profiles: citrus, herbs, fresh grass, and a salty-mineral lift. Aged releases trend darker—coffee, cocoa, licorice, roasted oak—with many cask-strengths praised for superb integration. Ti’ Punch performance is a standout, especially with high-proof blancs. While a few bottles show bitter-lemon peel, smoky-char, or heat, the overall consensus is strong value and character, with frequent 8.0–9.0/10 ratings and memorable single casks.
