    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members talk about its cinnamon-forward spice backed by vanilla, cherry and raisin on the nose. The palate brings woody spice with cinnamon and a touch of black pepper. While some find the character a bit artificial or alcohol-forward, others enjoy it as a straightforward spiced rum. Often used in rum and cola or with dessert, and supported by 70 community reviews, it’s a simple, mixing-friendly pick.

    Plutôt sympa ! Dans l’esprit

    A grower For some reason I had a very cheep sweet hazelnut chocolatebar with and it changed to an almost religious experience, this will be added to my collection.

    23rd sample of 24 days of rum offers a pot still Scottish spiced rum containing less then 5 g of sugar per litre. 👃 reminds me of a home-made hooch/booze or pálenka (in our country) distilled from various kinds of fruits but with spices included in this one. We can distinguish pear, plum, raisins it is very fruity, aromatic and rich in flavor. 👅 is really sweet, I don't believe the claim that there is less than 5 g of sugar per litre. Taste is definitely better for me. It is slightly spicy, fruity (all mentioned above) sweet but the hints of home made booze is still there :) Long finish. Definitely one of better spiced rums that I had a chance to try and this is coming from someone who is not a big fan of spiced rums.

    Salt caramel, whiskey
