    Comparative tasting with RX890 Nose: as with the RX890, the alcohol is very well integrated and brings a lot of fruit and agricole aromas. The palate is also a little dull but not as much as RX890. This rum also delivers a little more sweetness. In the finish, the spectrum fans out again enormously. Because of the nuance of more sweetness, the 2015 vintage gets one point more from me. Both bottlings are very similar and exemplary examples of what rum matured exclusively in steel tanks can do.

    RumX Advent Calendar 2024 post-tasting, 17 So, I managed to get the untasted one over with 😂 Sniff test: Agricole Then spiked and did the tasting not blund. Not my profile. I do unaged agricoles in the ti Punch but pure they just don't blow me away.

    Tag 17 RumX Adventskalender 2024 Tja wie soll man anfangen. Ist schon ein ziemliches Brett, dieser Rum. Ungelagert und Agricole war eigentlich klar, aber bestimmen oder eingrenzen konnte ich ihn nicht. Nach der Auflösung bin ich drauf gekommen, dass ich einen ähnlichen (RX890) bereits probiert hatte. Für mich persönlich schön diesen im Glas gehabt zu haben, aber diese sind pur für mich einfach nichts. Ist mir auch zu alkoholisch gewesen.

    Tag 17 des RumX-Adventskalenders: Ein großer Vorteil von Rum gegenüber Whisky ist, dass die Rohbrände auch ohne Reifung in Holzfässern von beeindruckender Tiefe und harmonischer Aromenfülle sein können, wie es zum Beispiel dieser Longueteau beweist. Die pflanzliche, grasige Frische des Zuckerrohrs zaubert hier bei einem erfreulich unanstrengendem Mundgefühl nicht nur zahlreiche Fruchtnoten hervor, sondern hat auch das nötige Kräuter-Gewürzrückgrat, um durch das Finale nachhaltig in Erinnerung zu bleiben.
