    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members love the aromatic, roasted-coffee and caramel nose with red fruits and sour cherry. On the palate it’s cask-strength power—wood, mocha and esters—finishing long and slightly bitter. Some suggest a few drops of water. With 52 community reviews and strong buyer confidence, this 20-year Fiji limited to 220 bottles appeals to fans of intense, mature character.

    Second tasting, -2 points. A good rum that is surprisingly fruity and sweet! The medicinal sweetness always resonates and lacks some complexity. The finish gets a little dirty with gum and burnt sugar, ensnared in a coat of floral honey-melon syrup. Every sip is fun and the Fiji becomes more and more pleasing. Unfortunately, the alcohol is not very well integrated, which costs a lot of points.

    A particularly powerful, full-bodied Fijian rum. Yet the nose suggests a more supple rum, with notes of exotic fruit, esters, cherry, wood, toast, floral notes, caramel and milk chocolate. The bourbon cask reinforces this impression of deliciousness. The attack on the palate is muscular and intense. Empyreumatic notes and spices quickly raise the temperature, followed by dry oak and tannins. A bitterness settles in with esters, while pineapple and aromatic herbs try to make their way through the alcohol, here particularly powerful. The finish is very long and clean. Smoky, woody and spicy notes dominate, but floral, herbal and medicinal essences, accompanied by exotic and dried fruits, balance this highly concentrated profile. A rum with a strong sensation, not to be placed in every hand.

    not bad, but I had expected a bit more from the framework data. It lacks a little complexity, the high ABV is (still) neatly integrated.

    Very good for short storage!
