    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members praise this 31-year Cuban release for its dark, rich profile and excellent alcohol integration. Expect raisins, dried fruits and chocolate-caramel on the nose, then woody, spicy oak, cocoa, coffee and a touch of tobacco on the palate. Many enjoy it neat or with a cigar. Some note a shorter finish and modest complexity, yet it remains a well-balanced, elegant sipper with 44 RumX reviews; only 231 bottles.

    Sehr ölig, rotgoldene, tiefe Farbe. Massig getrocknete Früchte, würzig, holzig. Reichlich Karamell, Schokolade und eine Spur Süße. Ein Hauch Lösungsmittel. Sehr rund, sehr ausgewogen, aber nicht sehr komplex. Die Nase gefällt mir richtig gut.😀😀😀 Im Mund dann sehr würzig und holzig. Da sticht mal der Alkohol. Der Abgang ist schön und wärmt, bevor er etwas zu schnell vorbei ist. Es gibt Aufregenderes, aber ein perfekter Rum zum entspannt Genießen. Das ist dann wohl auch die qualitative Oberkante aus Kuba. Sehr gut.😀😀 Musik dazu: „…introducing Ruben Gonzales“. Meiner Meinung die beste aus der Buena Vista-Ära.🇨🇺🇨🇺🇨🇺 Und danke nach 🇩🇪

    The raisin aroma in the nose can also be found on the palate, but only in the middle section. Before that, I briefly taste something like the addition of vanillin from baking (thanks, Dirk, for the classification). After the really concise, pleasant taste of sweet raisins and dried apricot, I really like the wonderful cocoa and coffee finish, which can be felt for a long time in the empty glass. No alcohol perceptible on the nose at any time, great! Very dark color, but not - as one might expect - an oily, heavy texture, but rather light. My conclusion: A drinkable, round, elegant rum from start to finish, with no break between nose and palate, which is certainly a great match for a cigar. Due to the 1992 vintage in combination with the country of origin, this rum has an absolutely unique selling point. Is that what you call a unicorn? Whether it really is significantly better than the TWJ 1978 (from the same distillery in Santiago de Cuba, as I assume after tasting it) remains to be seen in a direct comparison. But I'm already sure that the guys from the Wu Dram Clan are to be congratulated once again on their excellent choice of cask. Recommendation! Update 2024-04-10: Finally direct tasting today against the Cuban 1978 from TWJ (RX17933) and the difference could hardly be greater. I see my earlier separate assessments confirmed: They may both come from the same distillery, but where I taste incisively fine cocoa in the 92, in the 78 it's just penetrating tasting damp, charred wood - like a campfire that was put out yesterday and got rain overnight. The 78 has simply been in the barrel too long.

    I am positively surprised, it is complex and balanced really good. Coffee (Mokka and Cappuccino), different sugars and caramel plus some spices are the main ingredients. If it weren’t for the slightly alcoholic finish with a bitterness I can’t really put a name on, this could be a close candidate for a 9.

    Very palatable Cuban that invites you to pour more😊very tasty!
