How does this rum taste?
Most enjoy the honest, dry baked-apple and spice profile, but many find it flat, a bit harsh and bitter for the price. Consensus: interesting Ecuador origin, but only average in the glass.
If you like drier, lightly woody rums and want to tick off Ecuador without added sugar, this is worth a try—but go in expecting a straightforward, slightly rough-edged profile.
Those seeking rich complexity, heavy sweetness, or ultra-smooth sipping; anyone very sensitive to bitterness or alcohol prickle at modest ABV.

This is in a spices sense really spicy. It has its flaws but it is interesting. I would love to see this as a 20 yo with 50%.
Ich finde diesen Romer & Sond gar nicht so schlecht. In der Nase eigentlich überwiegend Gewürze, etwas Karamell ist auch erkennbar. Am Gaumen haben wir dann viel Holz und auch winterliche Gewürze wie Zimt sind erkennbar.
all right.
Also irgendwie ist dieses Jahr der Wurm drin beim Adventskalender von Kirsch Whisky. Auch dieser hier ist versammt langweilig und hat keine facetten. Schmeckt einfach nur süß ein wenig nach karamel und das wars. Zumal war er letztes mal auch schon im Kalender mit dabei....
