A.H. Riise Royal Danish Navy Rum

"Very artificial-looking rum. Sweet, slightly fruity, somehow roasted, nutty and wintry spicy. Not subterranean, but not good either."

"This rum is way too sweet and caramel is pungent and super dominant. Not my cup of tea. "

"A tasting from december 2018. Back then, this was okay for me, but today it would be way too sweet. And it would not be called rum today. It is sweet and a bit spicy in the nose, and very sweet in the taste, with notes of candied apples and some spice."

"Ein weicher und süßer Rum aus dem Hause A.H. Riise. Rosinen, Pflaumen und Karamell prägen das Geschmacksbild und natürlich die allgegenwärtige Riise-typische Süße. Ein guter Einsteigerrum, nicht mehr aber auch nicht weniger."

"Not quite as bad as the founders reserve but still extremely sweet and artificial. More reminiscent of Fanta syrup with licorice and roasted aromas. The alcohol is reasonably well integrated here, but I still wouldn't call it delicious."

"I really made a mistake on my vacation in Denmark. I just don't like it. Sweet to the point of no return. Then an artificial taste of bitter orange. It will probably gather dust on my shelf."

"7:Like most of the brand's rums, the nose is initially marked by fairly heavy notes of banana or very ripe pineapple. And as with most of these rums, these notes are very stealthy, followed by soft spices. We then get lots of cinnamon, cardamom and nutmeg, like in a Christmas gingerbread. The sensation is very spicy and peppery. There's also a hint of vegetal, expressed through cola and a cigar leaf. Spices definitely dominate, but an oxidized wineiness flatters the nose. Aeration gives way to red fruits, and we imagine a sweet grenadine. The amarena cherry is there, in the form of tangy candy. The fruity aspect that follows is rather surprising given the overall profile: raspberry jam takes us towards the creaminess of the goy ave, which contrasts with the candy side. 5,8:On the palate, spices fly in all directions, joined by coffee. One almost forgets that this is a cane spirit, but the molasses is now present. It's black and licorice-like. As on the nose, there's an oxidized wineiness that, combined with the prune, is rather gourmand. Chocolate ranks alongside all this greediness. 5:The finish is very sweet, the prune swollen and candied."

"Der perfekte Rum für gemischtes Eis oder Müsli. Zum pur trinken etwas für die süße Fraktion. Passt aber ganz gut in Cocktails. Von daher kann man Riise nicht verteufeln. Jeder rum hat seine Berechtigung…fast jeder :-)"

"Very sweet with artificial flavors of orange, caramel, cake batter."

"Absolutely creepy. Very dominant plum notes with an incredibly sticky, artificial sweetness. Truly one of the worst rums I've drunk to date."

"The first rum, which caused me to fall in love with rums. It's heavy, sweet and fruity (mostly orange and raisins). Most of the rum lovers hate A.H. Riise for their sweetness but to be honest, if somebody ask me, how the sailor's rum should taste, first which I will told - sweet and heavy, like you will drink a bread."

"Bernsteinfarben. In der Nase Gewürze, holzige Noten gemischt mit starker süße. Der Geschmack dann auch nach Holz, Mandeln, Gewürzen und sehr süß. Für mich ähnlich zum Royal Danish Navy Frigatte Jylland"

"Fantastisch fruchtig, ganz leichte Schärfe aber die passt gut. langer warmer Abgang mit Apfel und Beeren bis am ende ein süße mit leicht Betäuben Zunge bleibt."

"Nose: Spices, ginger, cinnamon, candied fruit Taste: Caramel, gingerbread, ginger, orange peel Finish: Spicy, chilli, ginger again, honey, caramel, spices"

"Süßer, fruchtiger Riise der sich durch die Schokonoten von seinen noch fruchtigeren Brüdern unterscheidet."
