    RumX Fiji Crosstasting April 2024 Platz 3/8 Erneute Verkostung im Blind Tasting. Die Abfüllung hebt sich durch das Ferrand Finish deutlich vom Rest und etwas des ursprünglichen Profils ab. Jedoch wirkt der Rum sehr komplex. Ursprüngliche Bewertung: Eine sehr schöne Abfüllung von Plantation. Schade, dass diese schwer zu bekommen war. Bitte mehr in dieser Art.

    Edit: Thanks Jakob, I had the pleasure of tasting a wide range of the Fiji 2001 bottlings. Although I've had a few in my glass before, the result surprised me again, as my previous favorite ended up in last place. However, it has to be said that I didn't give most of them time to develop due to a time problem. So here is the result of the blind tasting, which differs from the scoring. This is really a Plantation and also from Fiji that really convinces me. Very tasty. Thank you Vincent for the sample. I have to say that of all the Fijis I've had in my glass so far, this one has convinced me the most. My number 1 from this country

    Blind I would never have thought of Fiji from the nose, rather Jamaica high Ester. Brutal stuff, full in the face glue, red berries, tangerine and a whole mouthful of old leather bicycle chair 🤣and bicycle tube but especially leather is blatantly dominant. in ne very perverse way unfortunately really horny with an eternal finish and makes surprisingly fun to drink despite the high age and alcohol content.I am once again similar to the recently released Hampden extremely flashed that such a quality again from the house Plantation comes on the market!Definitely one of the best Fiji rums to date!At the 2nd tasting, the typical burnt bicycle tube aroma is almost too much for me! Nevertheless, a blatant device as far as Fiji is concerned! "Tastes like you're burning your bike and then eat ne horny dark chocolate mousse with red fruit jelly, plus bissl salty banana chipsAber your whole face is full of burnt rubber" 🤣🌋🚲🔥

    RumX Fidji 2001 Cross Tasting: Noticably different from the rest of the pack. Very high intensity and thickness and density. First association was „Guyan-esque twist on the Fidji 01 profile“. Actually the twist obviously comes from the Ferrand finish. This works really well here and beautifully enhance the base profile. For me 2nd place (blind) Cheers to Jakob!
