"I definitely like it better than the latest one time fiji bottling from plantation. Cognac cask and Fiji glue battle a bit on the palate, a nice rum with a very fair price for the release. Retasting in the Rumx calendar Nice pleasing Fiji rum which I scored a little better blind, so I'm raising the score here by one point. Great plv for the release."

"Edit: tried again as a warm-up for the REV 2006 series. Remains a nice sipper, but nothing more Day 2 RumX Advent calendar All in all a solid rum. Not bad in taste, more in the easy sipper category. A nice entry-level rum for me. Blindly, I wouldn't have put it in the Fiji category. But thanks for the selection, I would probably never have tried it or looked out for a sample."

"Nachgeholtes Tasting des Rums vom 02.12.2023 des RumX-Adventskalenders: Netter Easy Sipper. Fast ein bisschen langweilig. Erst recht für einen Karfreitag."

"Vanilla, some toasted wood, honey, chamomile notes, a hint of fruit. Pleasing, but a little too weak on the chest - in my opinion, there is too little aromatic depth overall."
