I'm Oliver – together with Jakob, Robert, and Lukas, we started RumX in 2018 as a small passion project in Stuttgart, back then under the name Rum Tasting Notes.
What began as a digital tasting diary is now the world's most comprehensive platform for rum fans: over 24,000 bottlings, 250,000+ independent reviews, and an active community with 46,000 members. We combine the collective intelligence of our community with an integrated marketplace, allowing you to shop securely and manage your collection directly from the app.
The goal? To offer you, the rum connoisseur, a place where you can choose with confidence—without paperwork, detours, or expert jargon.
Here, too, the DNA is recognizable in the nose, wood, herbs, roasted aromas - in addition, a floral-perfumed note comes to the fore, which fades slightly into soapy. On the palate, light citrus fruits, wood, roasted aromas, herbs and hay; however, a disturbing medicinal-waxy off-note comes to the fore that irritates me. Unfortunately, this off-note also remains present in the finish, which is why I cannot give it a better rating.
Erneut würzige Seife und erneut einfach schlecht.

Franconian Tasting Gang am 10.05.2024 Zuerst ein großes Dankeschön an DomM, der dieses Set zur Verfügung gestellt hat. Mich persönlich hat es nicht abgeholt das Profil. Bis auf eine Ausnahme ist mir dieser Seifengeschmack too much. Die Reste aus den Gläsern sind aber dann dank DomM und Serge in einem spontanen und überragenden Cocktail gelandet.
