A.H. Riise Non Plus Ultra Black Edition Rum

"Another sweet rum from Riise with a burnt smoky palate and finish. Still too sweet for my palate but a well rounded rum all the same. "

"A rum with a wonderful Virgin Islands base, but spoiled by kitschy taste additions like strawberry flavoring and other flavors that seem rather unnatural.More a kitsch dessert than a rum.But the base of this rum fascinates me, you can feel it between the sweet additions, but you have to make an effort ;-)"

"Liquid dessert."

"Sugar with flavors, glycerin, water and alcohol at an overpriced price."

"First time in a long time trying this. Had some tiramisu and decided to pair this with it, but it’s actually sweeter. The tiramisu at least has a bit of bitterness from the coffee. Far too much sugar for my palate nowadays. Scored it way higher in the past. Only way this bottle will ever be emptied, is by adding it to a coffee or maybe ask my girlfriend to make a rum cake with it. Or perhaps over ice cream in stead of caramel sauce. I can’t seem to enjoy it anymore."

"Unterscheidet sich an der Nase sehr von anderen A.H. Riise. Heftig künstlicher Fruchtmix aus Erdbeere, Banane, Melone und Kirsche eingebettet in Süßigkeiten. Könnte auch ein flüssiges Kaugummi sein. Hebt sich ab, aber die Frage bleibt, was hier alles künstlich erzeugt wurde. Wenn man diese Spirituose als teuren Dessertlikör betrachtet, kann sie als angenehm eingestuft werden. Preislich irgendwo bei Abzocke."

"Ein rauchig schokoladiger Geschmach mit warmem Pflaumenabgang. Vanille und Karamell runden das Geschmacksbild ab. Der Zuckerzusatz ist allerdings schon enorm und dominiert am Gaumen und in der Nase. Für Süßrumliebhaber eine klare Empfehlung"

"Take the already very sweet non plus ultra and add the flavors of gummy bananas, strawberry cream candies and pink cocktail cherries and again an extra portion of industrial sugar and a little more caramel... Et voilà: black edition. Mic drop, over and out. Sorry but no, just no."

"The absolute sweet rum king. The nose is taken by the sweetness and reminds me of brandy beans 😵. The sweetness is also very dominant in the taste, as well as in the finish. The Plantation XO was already a sugar bomb but this rum can top that. Who stands on sweet rums is in good hands here. Too bad that such a product is so messed up with sugar... sorry..., I can not understand. For science 🥃."

"After a long time back in the glass and still good..."

"8:On the nose, we discover a very dark Riise. First coffee, then lots of molasses, black, thick and licorice-like, creamy orange, dark chocolate. This thickness is enveloping and even heady, reminiscent of a very sweet coffee or a burnt, buttery caramel. The brand's trademark candy character is present, but for now it's smoldering under the ashes. It's the aeration that will deliver all the unbridled confectionery we're used to from these rums. Candies join the party: cherry marshmallows, strawberries, tangy banana. 7,8:On the palate, the attack is very soft, then gives way to a whiff of Christmas spices. Another of the brand's signatures, these spices are indeed present. A torrent of vanilla then carries off a host of sweets: milk-strawberry candy, cherry lollipop, creamy orange, vanilla whipped cream. 7,2:In the finish, licorice finds a small place, surrounded above all by a world of powdered sugar."

"sweet,sweeter...sweetest..."

"The taste offers notes of cedar wood, vanilla, caramel, golden fruits and molasses."

"Very sweet, like a liqueur. Instead of a dessert. How much gr sugar was the dosage? Overpriced!"

"Surprisingly clean nose, flattering baking aromas, caramel, dark chocolate. Unfortunately a sugar bomb on the palate. The only interesting thing are the strawberry flavors, which I didn't know otherwise, but which fell into my glass with 20 cubes of sugar."
