    #4894 Whisky Live in Paris 27.09.2024-30.09.2024. Another great event meeting a lot of RumX new and old friends. This year three weren't as many new releases as in 2023, but I still had a great time. Nose Fresh, light wood, faint roasted, peat, faint smoke, fruity, spice, light nutty, light caramel. Palate Oily, light wood, light roasted, peat, light smoke, light nutts, light caramel, faint orange, light plum. Finish Medium to long, light roasted wood, light peat, light smoke, light caramel, oily, light orange, faint prunes. This is a really nice example of a peated finish that for me works really well. I think it will split waters and many will disagree with me.

    Sehr torfig. Islay schlägt voll durch Messebewertung

    Messebewertung The Village 2025, Nürnberg: Es ist nicht so, dass es überhaupt nicht geschmeckt hätte, aber wenn ich einen Whisky haben will, dann schenke ich mir einen Whisky ein. Und wenn ich Lust auf Rum habe, dann greife ich zum Rum. Der Sinn von einem Wisky-Finish bei dem der Grundstoff völlig verloren geht (gilt erst recht für Peated Whisky“) erschließt sich mir nicht ganz. Kann man probieren, wenn sich die Chance ergibt, aber mehr muss ich nicht haben.

    Another whisky finish that completely masks the base spirit. You can't even taste whether the rum was produced from molasses or sugar cane.
