    How does this rum taste?

    • very sweet, even liquorish
    • rich and complex, spicy and well-rounded
    • Facettenreich und recht komplex

    The Non Plus Ultra La Galante from A.H. Riise is a rum that divides opinion, with recurring notes of pronounced sweetness, orange (zest and liqueur), vanilla, and a rounded, woody background. Many RumX members mention its liqueur-like palate—“The taste is sweet, rich and complex” (BTHHo 🥃)—and an undeniable orange jamminess on the nose. Some find the sweetness excessive, calling it “too sweet definitely…” (fortepian), while others praise its dessert-like, gourmand vibe that appeals to those with a sweet tooth.

    "Beautiful bottle but still a very sweet rum. Almost as sweet as the black edition."

    "The taste is sweet, rich and complex, spicy and well-rounded with hints of vanilla, orange and lemon. Rich, creamy and long aftertaste. Leave it in the glass for a bit and let it breathe before you taste it 👍"

    "Ein würzig Rum mit Zitrusnoten. Facettenreich und recht komplex. Nicht so süß wie andere der Non Plus Ultra Reihe aber dennoch ein süßer Rum für Einsteigergaumen. Nussig-holzig im Abgang. sehr süffig, gefällt mir."

    "7,2:The nose has a jammy sweetness of orange peel and mild spices, like a liqueur. There's also a hint of cake dough, with a buttery, sandy feel, like a cinnamon and cardamom cookie. With aeration, a hint of coffee aroma emerges, adding a little more depth. The cookie is spicier and more toasted, but the vanilla and sweet orange flavors continue to ensure a delicious finish. 7,5:The palate is very sweet, even liquorish, and the pastry profile of this rum bonbon is immediately apparent. Sweet spices and cake take shape on the palate, with a very gourmand and round thickness. Vanilla and orange liqueur flow slowly and abundantly, until they coat the whole taste bud. 7:The finish is very round, but very sweet, giving way to slightly roasted spices and a touch of liquorice. A spirit for sugary drinks lovers🙂."
