    How does this rum taste?

    • schöne Komplexität
    • Hint of vanilla and red wine
    • realy unique, amazing

    Plantation Panama 2012 Pauillac Wine Cask Finish leans into soft vanilla, mellow red fruits, and a touch of wood, with many RumX users calling out its sweetness and subtle wine influence. Timo Groeger notes, “etwas zu süss...Vanille und aber auch Holz”, while Johannes describes a rum where “das Weinfinish erhält...schöne Komplexität.” There’s some unique debate—Filip Šikula detects a “činská omáčka” (Chinese sauce) vibe in both aroma and taste, likely echoing those intriguing, savoury undercurrents reported alongside the expected fruity notes.

    "Přijemná milá, do rumu vypálená činská omáčka. :-) ve vůni drěvo, sušené ovoce a karamel. V chuti jsem si nejdřív přečetl Pavlův padthai a tězko se ho zbavuju. Asi tam je k trocha dřeva a pak zas ta sójovka."
