How does this rum taste?
RumX members highlight a distinctive Rockley profile: smoky honey wrapped in vanilla and oak, with herbal spice and occasional raisin-caramel accents. Many note whisky‑like, gently peaty aromas that evolve with air. Enjoyed neat for its balanced, dry character and well-handled 56% ABV, though a few mention a light bitter edge on the finish. With 46 community reviews and rising trust, it’s a compelling Barbados outlier.

Lecker Karamel auf der Zunge. Hatte auch Assoziationen zu einem Savanna. Hat mir sehr gut gefallen!
05.04.2024 Mount Gay Extreme Rare online tasting mit Dirk. Retasting and I stick to my score. Again this one needs to rest and the result is a very smooth and elegant rum with perfect ABV integration. ----------------------- A wonderful rum staying true to Barbados and its flavours. Woody with fruit and spices from nose to finish. Medium complex wit a little caramel. I do like the oily roasted/smoky touch on the palate. Price to quality is very good.
Very nice nose with honey, fruits and vanilla (rise) pudding accompanied by some herbs and spices. Has the upper hand compared to the RA 2000 Rockley, given a little higher intensity based on higher ABV.
Tag 21 im Kalender und ich hab es nicht als Barbados erkannt. Sondern ihn nach einem Tropfen im Glas gleich in Jamaika verortet, es war einfach gleich Funk im Glas und ich hätte Banane in der Nase. Dazu etwas Aprikose. Am Gaumen aber dann viel Kräuter und der Rum hat dabei eine schöne Cremigkeit, vielleicht sogar etwas dickflüssiger; im Abgang sorgen die Röstnoten für leichte Bitterkeit, die wird aber gut ausgelichen von der stets präsenten Honignote. Wo haben die den Barbados typischen Kokosgeschmack bloß versteckt.🤷🏻♂️ Vermisse ich hier allerdings gar nicht. Sehr schöner Tropfen. 🥃👌
