    How does this rum taste?

    Deep oak and toasted notes headline this rare 20-year-old Jamaican rum, underpinned by caramelized sweetness, vanilla, and flashes of citrus. RumX tasters repeatedly praise its complex nose—intense and elegant, with a long, dry finish—and the interplay of wood, spice, and fruit. While some wish for higher strength, the overall impression is of a rich, historic rum with impressive layering. Worth discovering for lovers of nuanced, aged profiles.

    Was für eine Granate. War am GRF am zweiten Tag mein erster Rum des Tages und ich habe mir schon sehr viel Zeit dafür genommen. Mich spricht dieses Profil vollkommen an. Nach Aussage von den super geilen Leuten von Rumauction, hat sich dieser nach einem Tag bei geöffneter Flasche nochmal positiv verändert. Nicht das es nur wirklich Geschichte ist diesen Rum zu probieren ist, finde ich ihn schon sehr Granatenmäßig. Der Abgang ist megalang. Musste dann gleich nochmal eine Sample mitnehmen. Gehört definitiv in meine Spitzengruppe.

    Viel tropisches Holz, schöne tiefe, in fassstärke sicher ein Traum.

    Ein Stück Geschichte. An der Nase mit typischen Eichenholzfassnoten nach telpischer Lagerung gepaart mit überraschender Frische von Limettenschale und roten Früchten. Am Gaumen etwas mehr Gewürzaromatik, die Früchte rücken in den Hintergrund, dafür spielt das sehr wohl balancierte Holz im Zusammenspiel mit den Melassenoten grösser auf. Sehr lecker, aber für die aktuellen Preise eher ein besonderes Erlebnis als ein neuer Sehnsuchtsrum.

    Verkostung #2000: Eine Offenbarung und flüssige Geschichte. Der ursprüngliche Mai Tai Rum aus den 70ern von Appleton und die Legende schlechthin. Sehr elegant, würzig und aromatisch. Könnte natürlich ein paar % mehr vertragen ist aber in sich extrem angenehm zu trinken und trotzdem wahrscheinlich aromatisch genug um sich im Mai tai durchzusetzen. Danke für die Möglichkeit Jens!❣️❣️👌🏼
