Nice profile, dried fruit, toasty, caramel, vanilla, baking spice, bourbon, slight menthol freshness. Somewhat reminiscent of Ten Cane or TDL. Toasty on the palate, dark chocolate, barrel, and bourbon again! Class rum from the Lone Star State!

Rum X Advent 6.12.22Overall a great surprise. Full bomb bourbon with chocolate and roasted flavors. Intense and nice depth of flavor, first thought something tropical aged. For me, some points deduction because of the alcohol involvement.

#6th dec RumXCalendar Blind tasting: Nose: Chocolate, spicy, dried currants, cinnamon, nutty Palate: spicy, dried currants, cinnamon, roasted nuts, minty The finish is (unfortunately) a bit short with notes of cinnamon, minty, green apples, dried currants. Like a bit winterly Ooh it’s from Texas 😎 Really lovely rum with a nice hint of freh mint. My Prediction: Belize Approx. 55% Approx. 5 years of aging

Newly presented at the BCB Berlin. Extremely harmonious and complex! A blend of green apple, cinnamony winter baked apple, grape or cassis jelly, citrus peel and green tea with fresh mint, plus some leather, burnt sugar and toasted wood and bourbon. Very tasty and alcohol content is chosen just right.

Wonderfully round first impression on the nose. Gradually, more and more details are added - that's how I like it!On the palate, similarly round and yet intense. The storage in bourbon barrels, however, he can not hide. Long spicy finish. Very good rum, perfectly suited as a Feierabend rum: demands not excessive, with balanced spice and sweetness very tasty.

RumX Calendar No. 6My guess was at a TDL... was completely over!Well then, the Texan has a slight resemblance, but more not!Overall, an unusual, but quite interesting and tasty profile! In the nose fruity berry and fresh , on the palate more toasty and after bourbon! A successful bottling

Un rhum américain assez charmeur. Le nez est tourné vers le caramel, le sucre brûlé, le chocolat et les notes rôties. On ressent aussi les épices, le bois, un peu de menthol et une influence de bourbon. En bouche, la trame grillée, épicée et caramélisée reste dominante, avec toujours le boisé, le chocolat et le cuir en arrière-plan. La finale est moyennement longue, sur les mêmes tonalités, avec une touche de noisettes grillées. Un rhum classique mais gourmand et gouleyant.

Auf jeden Fall ein spannender, interessanter Rum. Ein guter Mix aus Hefe, Bourbon, Fass, Melasse.

RumX Adventskalender 6.12.2022: In der Nase war ich anfangs bei Belize, mit der Zeit wurde der Geruch immer Bourbon lastiger. Im Mund würzige Noten aus dem Fass, süßliche Beeren und eine leichte Menthol Note. Der Alkohol könnte noch etwas besser integriert sein, sonst aber sehr lecker. Hatte nachdem der Bourbon Geruch kam etwas Angst, aber der schmeckt mir mit der Zeit immer besser!

Vorne mit viel Kraft aber auch weich wie ein Bourbon. Und schmeckt und riecht auch sehr ähnlich – ohne dabei seinen Rum-Charakter aufzugeben. Hat mir sehr gut geschmeckt.

6. Tag Rum X Adventskalender Geschmacksprofil erinnert etwas an Barbados oder Belize. Alkohol nicht so gut integriert, Schärfe deutlich spürbar.

Überraschung Nummer 6 kommt also aus Texas. Nachdem dieser Rum schon bei vielen überraschend gut ankam kann ich da nur beipflichten. Sehr ausgewogen mit trockenen Beeren die bis zum Finish präsent sind. Dieser Rum gleitet so dahin am Gaumen. Toll!

Wirklich ein toller Rum zum sippen. Der Alkohol ist gut eingebunden. Leichte karamellige süße trifft ein Holz Fass mit Vanille und röstigen Aromen mit einem hauch von Minze am Ende.

RumX Adventskalender 06.12.: Beerig, karamellig, wie aus dem Port- oder Madeira-Fass. Nicht mein Profil, Alkohol dazu recht schlecht eingebunden.

Nez sur les épices, le safran en particulier, maïs, avec quelques fruits rouges en fond, la menthe légère en faicheur. En bouche on retrouve les marqueurs d’épices, de bourbon, et une certaine fraîcheur épicée. C’est bon et original!
