“RumX and Swell de Spirit online tasting, March 2024. Dark on the nose, with woody notes, but also fresh with menthol and pastry-like with vanilla and coconut. The attack is quite lively, with pastry, umami, vanilla and pineapple taking center stage. The touch of varnish adds depth. For me, the finish is a little disappointing, as it feels shortened despite its balance and complexity. The empty glass reveals a vegetal, tobacco and even floral side, absent from the palate and nose.”

“Wir hatten eine wirklich fantastische Masterclass mit Mika von Swell. Die Session war ausgesprochen informativ und die Rums wirklich hervorragend! Diesen Belize haben wir zweimal verkostet. Einmal als 45% des Blends RX16704 und einmal als Single Cask. Der Single Cask hat 11 Jahre tropische Reife hinter sich. Belize ist normalerweise nicht mein bevorzugtes Profil, diesen hier fand ich ungewöhnlich komplex und intensiv. Neben der typischen Kokosnuss findet sich eine Reihe an gelben Früchten, weihnachtlichen Gewürze und einer deutlichen Röstigkeit. Im Mund ist das Bild sehr ähnlich, intensive getrocknete Mango und gelbe Früchte prägen neben der Kokosnuss das Bild. Anders als beim Long Pond aus dem Blend sind hier der Alkohol fantastisch eingebunden. Dieser Rum war meinem Überraschung des Abends, leicht der beste Belize, den ich probiert habe. Exzellenter Rum.”

“Swell Masterclass RumX 28.03.2024 Eigentlich hab ich mit dem Profil innerlich nach der letzten Runde mit DomM zusammen schon abgeschlossen gehabt, da mich die Abfüllungen überhaupt nicht abgeholt haben. Aber diese schmeckt mir eigentlich ganz gut.”
