Already in the nose waits a very own green note, reminiscent of tart herbs and unripe vegetables. On the palate more balanced, tea, wood, fennel, spices - thereby overall extremely dry and thus rather on the tart side. Even if the Bellevue DNA remains recognizable, it is a rather unusual representative of the 98 batch with a clear impact on the herbaceous-green side.

This rum is different in taste than expected. In the smell test, I could not have assigned him a clear origin. On the nose, it presents itself pleasantly fresh with strong notes of (citrus) fruit and cinnamon. The palate is dominated by berries and grapefruit, wood, leather and tobacco, but without this rum being extremely astringent. In the background, I still detect anise and tea. I rarely experience this combination. The alcohol is top integrated. The flavors remain very long and intense in the mouth. An unusual experience and thus definitely the most interesting rum of the new RA bottlings. Price: 92 euros per 0.5 liters.

I'm beginning to doubt myself: most of the rums I've tasted recently have been rated by me with well over 80 points. Did they really have such a high level of quality objectively? With this rum, however, I'm pretty sure and have no doubts: Yes, this is something fine! A lovely Caribbean dream. Very interesting notes already in the nose, wonderful exotic-fruity impression. I think I'll have to get another bottle.Rating: sweet.Update 2022-12-09:Yesssss, the rum just puts a smile on my face. 😊 Anise and kumquat notes dominate very nicely today. Delicious!

Second tasting: crass, this kumquat in the nose and on the palate!The nose is stunning! Goes easily into the medical, possibly cough syrup!? In addition, I still perceive rose oil. I don't know anything like that from 98 Bellevue (I have the Kill Devil, RX773 for comparison).On the palate I experience a crazy complexity and balance at the same time! The spices, fruit, herbs, heather honey and wood influence are all present but none predominates.The aftertaste flies unfortunately faster than I like, only a trace of cocoa and oak remains long and makes you want more.Blind I would not have guessed here on a rum! This is m.M.n. the sensation among the third RA bottlings in 2022 and for Guadeloupe/Bellevue anyway. In addition, the P / L ratio is right.

Einzigartige Nase. Zitrus (Kumquat und Mandarine) und Gewürze (Anis und Kümmel). Alles gut ausgewogen, Alkohol gut integriert. Sehr schönes Mundgefühl. Prickelnd mit schöner Holzreife. Im Abgang konzentrierte Kumquatschale. Sehr guter und interessanter Rum abseits ausgetretener Pfade.

the new GRF bottling competes against the Nobilis Bellevue 1998. First impression at the RA: an essence from the aroma bar like on vacation this week 😁Citrus à la kumquat and star fruit, but also pine and a bit of the resin thereof. Completely different in the Nobilis, which scores with caramel, papaya and apple. On the palate, the RA comes with grapefruit, strong tea and a fair amount of barrel or tannins. The Nobilis also comes with some bitterness, but then goes more towards leather and tobacco. Conclusion: the RA is a crazy part, so not at all like other 98 Bellevues, and nothing for by the way, you have to get involved with him. Overall, however, I prefer the Nobilis.

One of the top 5 rums i tried on the german rum festival. Very delicious rum with all the lovely wooden, dried fruits, anise armomas paired with a nice lemon peal note. It has a clear wood note without being astringend in mouth/tongue. The alcohol is integrated very well. For me the best of all RA rums showed on the festival.

Aus Guadeloupe kommen viele interessante Abfüllungen. Und auch diese hier hat viel zu bieten. Nase: total würzig. Muskat, Kümmel und Kardamom, dazu etwas Nelke und Zimt. Dahinter Kumquat, getrocknete Orangenschale, Orangeat und Zitronat. Sehr nahe an Früchtenbrot, geht jetzt sogar Richtung Christstollen mit Puderzucker. Krass! Hinten raus kommt das Holz, Eiche, ganz leicht rauchig. 88 Am Gaumen wiederholt sich fast die Nase: wieder intensiv würzig, viel Piment und Kardamom, dazu Muskat und etwas Nelke. Das ganze beginnt etwas bitter und salzig. Wieder kommen Orangeat und Zitronat und hinten das Holzfass hinzu. Wirkt dadurch ordentlich trocken. Am Gaumen ist er mir fast zu Kardamom-lastig. 82

Un rhum au profil extrêmement parfumé et envoûtant. Le nez est un festival de fleurs, d’herbes aromatiques et de menthol, donnant une fraîcheur extraordinaire pour un rhum aussi vieux. Les agrumes sont également extrêmement présents. Les zestes d’orange et de citron apportent de la gourmandise et de la profondeur. Il y a également une petite note de fruits rouges qui s’estompe au fur et à mesure. Le bois et les épices se veulent plus secondaires mais se fondent bien à l’ensemble. Un nez des plus charmants et élégants. L’attaque en bouche s’effectue relativement en douceur pour le degré d’alcool. On reste sur des notes à dominante florale, herbeuse et parfumée, avec du thé noir notamment. Les épices chaudes se conjuguent très bien à l’acidité des agrumes et des fruits exotiques. On retrouve un rhum très suave, un peu épais, savoureux et très original. La finale est très longue, encore portée par les agrumes, les notes herbeuses et florales. Des notes rôties, du cuir et des épices viennent en embuscade. Un très bel exemple de rhum qui a conservé sa fraîcheur au fil des ans avec un profil des plus aromatiques. Chapeau à Rum Artesanal pour la sélection. Le rapport qualité / prix est excellent.

Absolutely not reckoned with this mega crass citrus bomb on the nose. I think almost that could be my new benchmark Guadeloupe Bellevue Rum, because I had until now almost no good old Guadeloupe Rums that are not too smoky and bitter to me. This one is an absolute exception and makes really fun! 🤤👍Further probably the best for me

Wonderful nose.

Profile picture of user

Il naso è dominato dalla marmellata di arancia, sembra di mangiare un Pim's all'arancio. Poi canditi, cuoio, tabacco e una lontana nota di cherosene. Ma anche una buona dose di legno e the. Il profilo è quello tipico dei Bellevue 1998, non mostra cedimenti, forse solo un attimo più timido che altri imbottigliamenti. La bevuta richiama subito molto il te e il legno, ovviamente accompagnata dalla nota agrumata che si fa' via via più intensa. Inaspettatamente, compare la liquirizia e il palato ne è così avvolto che sembra di aver mangiato un paio dei rombi di pura liquirizia tipici della mia infanzia. Il classico calore alcolico un po' pepato ci accompagna verso un finale che non è troppo lungo e presenta principalmente note di agrumi, spezie e legno.

Sehr gefeiert beim GRF, 99 Euro für 24y, gekauft und gleich ins Glas damit: Tolle Farbe aber keine Ahnung ob Bellevue färbt. Nase ist eine Mischung von mittelaltem Holz ( kein nasses Holz aber auch kein schweres Holz wie so mancher Guyana KFM oder Mount Gay) und vor allem Citrusfrüchten, sowie Minze und bisschen Karamell vielleicht. Nicht überaus komplexe Nase, aber doch spannend und sehr toll balanced! Im Mund sehr weich, ölig, fein aufgelöst. Alkohol fantastisch eingebunden. Sehr frisch und Zitrusfrüchte und Minze am Gaumen. Auch Holz aber nicht übertönend oder adstringent… Ein überraschendes und tolles wenn auch nicht mein Lieblingsprofil. Eine tolle Abfüllung die es sicher immer wieder ins Glas schaffen wird. Bei mir in der Kategorie des RA Fiji … toll!

A great rum that convinces me very much. The fruitiness is wonderful and intense. The citrus on the nose fresh and the candied berries on the palate come through very well. The whole is accompanied by a well balanced wood note. Am fully convinced.

Zweite Chance für diesen Rum. Beim German Rumfestival im letzten Jahr konnte er bei mir nicht punkten. Danke @Mto für das Sample Und nun? An der zunächst frischen Nase werd ich von Orangensaft erdrückt aber irgendwie nicht von lecker frisch gepresst sondern eher Tetra Pak. Am Gaumen dann mehr Richtung Zitrus und im Finish leichte Tabaknoten. Dabei insgesamt vorwiegend trocken. Also ich weiß nicht aber manchmal ist der erste Eindruck der richtige. Dieser Rum und ich werden keine großen Freunde.🤷🏻‍♂️ Aber den Versuch war es wert

Tasted at the 11th GRF: Untypical 98 Bellevue, which I would not have blindly classified in this vintage. But that in turn makes this bottling almost exciting again.

Sehr guter Vertreter der an sich schon guten 98iger Bellevues. Am Gaumen tut sich viel: Kräuter, Honig, grüne Gemüsenoten. Alkohol sehr gut eingebunden, PLV für die Qualität des Rums richtig gut. I am loving it.
