How does this rum taste?
The Spirit of Art, a limited edition rum from Mauritius, offers a complex sensory journey. Its aroma carries ripe banana, mango, and oak with medicinal hints and marmalade nuances. On the palate, vanilla and caramel blend with sugarcane brightness, though some feel the alcoholic punch overshadows the subtle flavors. Our RumX community shares mixed experiences—some enjoy its tropical charm and aged character, while others find it too youthful and unbalanced. This independently bottled release by Valinch & Mallet invites adventurous rum lovers to explore a unique, collectible expression with a creative twist.

#4117 I'd say this one is a bit disappointing because the other releases were pretty good on average. Naturally sweet with fruit and light roasted wood and lightly dry on the palate. Draws nice curtains and the empty glass is nice with stronger chocolate and a very light smoky note.
Schade, hatte mehr erwartet von diesem Rum. Ist jedenfalls sehr alkoholisch in Nase und Gaumen. Außerdem sehr medizinisch in der Nase, außerdem Banane und Mango. Am Gaumen ist dann noch junges Holz und Schokolade erkennbar.
Puh, das ist nun so gar nicht meins. Meines Erachtens viel zu jung abgefüllt, recht ruppiger Alkohol, dahinter mit viel Süsse, die kaum Platz für ein echtes Profil lässt. Hat leider zu viel Anflug von Neutralalkohol für mich. Schade, aber es gibt glücklicherweise deutlich bessere Abfüllungen aus Mauritius.
Sowas muss nicht extra abgefüllt werden. Besserer Neutralalkohol. Sehr entäuschend.
