Smooth, mildly sweet Dominican profile with vanilla, caramel, wood and dried fruit. Approachable at 43%, often praised neat; some note pronounced sweetness and question the premium price.

    RumX members celebrate its smooth, rounded elegance highlighted by vanilla, caramel and gentle wood, with raisin-like dried fruit and hints of nuts. The 43% ABV feels mild yet flavorful, leading to a caramel‑nut finish. Often enjoyed neat—sometimes alongside a cigar—it’s approachable for newcomers. With 47 reviews and buyer confidence building, the sweetness appeals widely, though a few find it too sweet or not matching the premium price.

    Pretty decent rum and the price matches what you get.

    This is a premium rum with a premium price but it's not that great and sadly disappointed ... This did not taste like a 30 year rum at all The notes were basically oak and caramel massive disappointment for the price

    Sehr runder aber auch komplexer ausgewogener Rum. Zugegeben ein wenig süßlich vor allem Vanille und Karamell dominieren. Es ist und bleibt ein toller Rum. Fazit: Sehr ausgewogen und preislich sehr fair.

    Ja dieser gefällt mir sehr gut. Man merkt ihm die 30 Jahre gleich an, da er schon recht holzig daherkommt. Dazu kommen dann noch eine schöne Vanille- und Karamellnote in Nase und Gaumen. Und im Gaumen kommt dann noch Kaffee hinzu. Lecker.
