    How does this rum taste?

    • Strong chocolate and cocoa notes
    • Fun, collectible bottle
    • Sweet, approachable profile

    Chocolate and cocoa dominate Deadhead 6 Years, joined by sweet vanilla, caramel, and notes of coffee for a dessert-like profile. Expect a rounded, spiced aftertaste, though some RumX users found the body lighter and the alcohol less integrated. For those drawn to bold, confectionary flavours in their glass, this Mexican rum may intrigue—especially if you enjoy unique bottle designs. Worth a sip for lovers of rich, dessert-style rums.

    "Marginally better than their Dark Chocolate. The only thing that helps it up a little is the higher ABV. The nose becomes completely filled with vanilla. At the palate is the vanilla supplemented with lots of sugar and cacao."

    "Small hints of coffee, cocoa… low body/character. Wouldn‘t recommend anyone else to buy a full bottle!"

    "Un échantillon en plastique de forme très originale pour ce rhum avec un nez où vanille, pâtisseries, grappa, fût, noisettes grillées et chocolat au lait se disputent. La bouche est clairement déçevante et diluée. Un léger piquant de piment n’est pas très intégré. Les arômes du nez sont délavés et sans consistance. La finale est courte et il reste du boisé brûlé et de l’amertume comme dans le caramel industriel. Un rhum avec un nez avenant, mais la bouche n’est pas bonne."

    "6:On the nose, there's no mistake, there's plenty of chocolate, as if cocoa powder had been diluted in the rum. There's also a very smooth, creamy, almost milky quality, giving this rum a solidly gourmand, regressive character.Aeration doesn't alter the profile at all, perhaps more a very sweet side and a certain suave roundness from the vanilla and caramel. 6,9:The palate is smooth, but we're pleasantly surprised by a little relief that avoids the trap of too much roundness. The chocolate borrows a little of the coffee's character, without betraying its promise of deliciousness. 6:The finish is a mochaccino-style blend of chocolate and coffee, quite short."
