HoneyBatcher GmbH Fiji 2020 2yr 65%

“Smooth, estery, with a perfectly balanced kick. Exceptional value.”

Discover the remarkable depth of the Fiji HoneyBatcher, a rum that delivers a symphony of tropical fruit, esters, and woody undertones harmonized with a spicy kick. Crafted in Fiji by HoneyBatcher GmbH, this rum has wooed enthusiasts with its glue and fermented aromas, a testament to its unique craftsmanship. Despite its 65% ABV potency, the alcohol is skillfully integrated, making it dangerously smooth. Often likened to a Jamaican rum for its rich profile, this young spirit has matured gracefully in virgin oak, striking a perfect balance between vibrant freshness and warm spiciness. Its dirty, ester-forward flavor is complemented by a long, fruit-spice finish, marking it as a delightful daily sipper with an excellent price-to-quality ratio. Indulge in this 2 years 10 months aged marvel and experience the irresistible allure of Fiji's rum craft.

“Edit: Jetzt auch nochmal als Mixer probiert. Da find ich ihn echt spitzenmäßig und noch süffiger im Geschmack. Deshalb noch mal nach oben korrigiert. Der zweite Honeybatcher ist echt super gelungen. Meinen Respekt, was für ein super Tropfen. Tolles Preis/Leistungsverhältnis. Die 65% sind so gut wie nicht wahrnehmbar, was ihn wiederum gefährlich macht. Vermutlich hätte ich bei einer Blindverkostung eher auf Jamaica als Fiji getippt. Von mir eine klare Kaufempfehlung. Kommt als Mixer bestimmt auch gut, was ich noch ausprobieren werde.”

“So … am frühen Sylvesterabend sind wir ja alle etwas näher an der Datumsgrenze gebaut … Zeit für den neuen Honey Batcher aus Fiji 🇫🇯 Schlechte Fijis gibt’s ja wie Sand am Meer, aber hier ist mal wieder ein schöner Jahrgang. Sehr jung, aber durch das Virgin Oak wirklich eine cool gelungene Reife. Der Rum bringt wieder viel von dem mit, was man an den 2001 so schätzt. Wachs, Plastik, Frucht, Funk. Echt lecker, schön dreckig und geiler Preis. Für mich topt der Fiji Honeybatcher den Ghana bei weitem und hat ein echt geiles PLV. Hut ab Fabi!”
