„This is definitely a "Jamaican". Funky and fruity rum that can be both a sipper and mixer to your liking. For the price a pretty good rum. I just did another tasting of this rum and it scored a few extra points this time.“

„The nose on tropical fruits well candied, buttered, spicy and metallic, the whole butter vanilla brings us a pretty pastry and greedy side all that slightly wooded. After 15/20 minutes it is rather red fruits which arrive with a touch of milk chocolate. The mouth is directly fruity, metallic, spicy and greedy like the nose. The final fades on the same notes as the mouth with a small smoked, chocolate and honeyed side which come to be added. A very wise Jamaican but still very aromatic for such a low titration! 🇯🇲“

„This rum, together with its Overproof brother, marking an historic moment for all rum enthusiasts loving the funky 100% pot still rum from Jamaica. Now we don’t need to buy expensive Veliers.“

„I prefer the overproof version but it remains a real value. Not to be confused with the Batch 2 (on which is marked 8 years) which is lighter and more commercial than its original version.“

„Clearly wilder than Batch 2. Clearly more esters, but somehow seems younger than 7 years old. 80/100“

„Compared to the successor RX3128: Fruitier, younger and sweeter nose. On the palate, a great flavor palette of banana, toasty spicy notes and a slight saltiness. This is fruitier, smoother and I really like the sweet banana note that runs through! Overall, I like it a little better than the successor, but I like the even younger 5 year LROK best“
