    How does this rum taste?

    The Plantation Fiji Islands (Julhes) rum, distilled in 2001 at the Fiji Rum & Co distillery and bottled by Maison Ferrand, offers a complex and intriguing profile. With 20 years of aging and a 45.9% ABV, this cask strength rum boasts aromas of dried fruit and peat, and flavors reminiscent of whiskey, accompanied by smoky and peaty undertones. User reviews highlight its strong fruitiness and notes of overripe banana and chocolate, although some may find it dominated by its whisky finish. Overall, this Fiji rum presents a unique flavor bomb, best enjoyed in small quantities to avoid overwhelming the palate.

    In this Plantation bottling, the fiji flavors harmonize beautifully with the whiskey finish. I like very much.

    The typical 2001 Fiji notes are there. Rubber gum gum gum. Of course it suffers from dilution, but either way a successful bottling and worth a purchase.

    On The Rocks: On the nose it has a very strong fruit presence with underlying floral, spice and oak notes. The aroma is quite strong and you will smell it beyond your glass in the room. Taste has a stronger spice and oak taste with fruit taking a back seat with mild underlying hints. There is a slightly bitter taste as it lacks the expected sweetness. The spice is very present with a little burn. Finish is very long and distinct with reasonable complexity. This is a very interesting rum release that is very much a flavour bomb overall. Nice sipping in small quantities. Do not pour a larger glass as it will be overwhelming. Mixed Pepsi Zero: On the nose a dusty old warehouse. Taste reveals a mild bourbon that is slightly bitter with a short finish. Not really enjoyable mixed and would suggest on the rocks.
