Admiral Rodney Officer's Releases N2
On the nose, expect inviting bursts of tropical fruit, banana, and subtle caramel, leading to a palate where candied fruit and honey mingle with spice, pepper, and woody undertones. RumX members call it “very balanced and easy to drink” (Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪) and praise the “complexity and well-integrated Irish whisky finish” (LukaŽiga). The peppery, slightly medicinal note adds intrigue, though several reviewers note the alcohol integration could be improved. If you enjoy rums with sweet, fruity layers wrapped in interesting spice, this limited edition is worth exploring.
Tropical fruit and spice meet candied sweetness, with a unique whiskey finish—balanced and complex, though a bit hot for some.

"8,5:The nose entices you with notes of wood, clove, allspice, and honeyed dried fruit like prunes, baked honey with apple and pears, brown sugar, licorice, vanilla and raspberries. Some parfum and leather, rubber could also be detected. All well balanced, alcohol integrated. 8,5:On the palate it is buttery, fruity with tropical fruits and spicy-pepper, salt with toasted wood, vanilla, tobacco, molasses, later going towards red fruits such as cherry, blackcurrant and sweet chilli, coming a bit dry.Irish whisky finish is felt nicely, has some medicinal, industrial like rubber, tar notes and is well balanced and very complex. 8,3:Asian spices and other warm spices are present with a hint of oak, saltiness and smokiness at the finish.."
"In der Nase nimmt man noch tropische Früchte und auch Banana wahr, im Gaumen reduziert sich das ganze jedoch auf eher holzige und würzige Aromen; sehr angenehm ist der zu erkennende leichte Zimt. Die Früchte sind als kandierte Früchte wahrnehmbar. Alkohol in Nase und Gaumen zu stark, im Abgang nicht mehr wahrzunehmen - demnach für mich nicht ideal eingebunden."
"I’m a fan of this rum. Its more interesting than the Royal Oak and all together a different profile which just works. I haven’t had many Irish whisky cask finished rums but it works really well here. The nose is all Parma violets and candied fruit, the mouth sweet and candy led but with more complexity and some light barrel notes alongside honeyed sweetness. The finish is moderate with some schnapps and warm spicy notes. The only thing that is lacking for me is the alcohol is not as integrated as it could be. An impressive rum and my favourite of the Asmiral Rodney range thus far"
"The nose is not too smoky. It is rather fruity-spicy on a honeyed profile. We have nice tropical fruits, caramel, licorice and vanilla. On the finish, we find the characteristic peaty notes of whiskey as well as notes of tobacco. I find this reference nice and the finish whiskey is rather contained. It's clearly not the type of bottle I would have gone for, so it's cool that I got it as a gift."
