     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.

     RumX Advent calendar Day 2 Disappointing rum, little going on there. A bit of coconut, nuts and vanilla. At first I thought about some awful continental aged FS I had in the past, but pairing this one performed even worse. Not a bad taste, simply nothing to be noted here and not enough to get a positive evaluation

     Had a great Plantation tasting experience yesterday and here is the second one of the six we had a go at. This is an impressive rum from Fiji that deserves people give it a chance. I will definitely add this one to my shelf. It could have been a little more complex but still a very good rum. Watch out for South Pacific Destillery in the future, I think they will make more great ones. Price to quality is very good.

     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.
