A.H. Riise XO Ambre d‘Or Reserve 42%
The XO Ambre d’Or Reserve, distilled from Virgin Island molasses and bottled by A.H. Riise, offers a strikingly sweet, fruit-forward profile. This limited release of 2000 bottles boasts strong notes of peaches, apricot, and vanilla. While some appreciate its liqueur-like sweetness reminiscent of peach and apricot, others find the overly sweetened profile overwhelming. Perfect for those seeking a unique sweet rum experience, it features a mild, short finish with hints of caramel. It’s particularly favored by those who enjoy fruit-forward, intensely sweet spirits. However, traditional rum enthusiasts may find it lacking in complexity and authenticity. Overall, this rum presents a vibrant, syrupy character that appeals more to fans of flavored spirits than classic rum.

“Almost like the regular XO bit still too sweet for me. Almost like liquid candy in a kind of way.”

“Naja es ist halt ein überzuckerter Riise. Dieser ist auch sehr süß. Nach unten korrigiert, will keine Riise Empfehlungen mehr beim Deal des Tages. Ist aber halt auch Zuckerwasser. Zusammengefasst ist es einfach nur wieder dieser völlig übersüßte und künstliche Geschmack der völlig überwiegt.”

“Considered a rum-based spirit, this XO juice finished in Sauternes casks is extremely sweet. The nose flirts with fruit brandies like peach and apricot. Vanilla, sugar and caramel are not far behind, hinting at a tampered juice. There's no doubt about it on the palate: the Sauternes cask has taken its toll, resulting in a very syrupy, very sweet juice (sugar addition confirmed) that disrupts the palate. With its syrupy texture, sweet flavors and fruity alcoholic effluvia, this beverage tends to be nauseating after a few sips. The finish is no exception, being relatively short and linear along the same lines. There's a hint of chocolate, honey and cognac, but the taste doesn't change much. A drink where you need to move on quickly to avoid diabetes.”
