    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members love its bold esters and tropical fruit, lifted by a distinctive umami note. Expect glue and overripe fruit on the nose, then pineapple, banana and vanilla on the palate with a minty echo. At 60%, alcohol is mostly well integrated; some find it sweet, slightly plastic, or a bit wild on the finish. A popular pick with 50 reviews and strong buyer confidence.

    I'm torn as to how good I really think it is. From memory of the previous Fiji from the vintage I had in my glass, this one from the Wild Series lives up to its name. It is wilder than the others. I'll probably compare it with others again when I get the chance.

    A rum tasted at the GRF in 2024. A full, rich nose of yellow fruit and banana. A very interesting umami note that lingers throughout the tasting. The entry is supple, with the same aromas as on the nose, plus a few esters. The finish is short/medium, but the fruity aromas and umami linger much longer. A surprisingly well-balanced and interesting rum for its age (3 years). All it needs is a little more depth.

    GRF13: An unusual Fiji for me... somehow artificial and fruity in taste, somehow interesting, but not quite my cup of tea... but on the other hand, something new in the glass again. It will certainly find its fans

    This Fiji rum immediately won me over at the GRF13. Now it's time to test whether I was right at the fair - it's not easy with so many tastings in such a short space of time. I find the nose alone stunning: I can clearly smell strong tropical long pond umami notes here, awesome! This is a nose that I like to linger over for a long time. I also find the great tropical Long Pond umami notes on the palate and in the finish, and not just a little but a full load! I wouldn't be at all surprised if, in a blind tasting, many an expert here thought they had a tropical 2005 Long Pond in their glass. There is an interesting minty note in the finish. Not as strong as in the well-known T.D.Ls, but clear. The alcohol is very well integrated. Very good, extremely unusual Fiji, I will probably need a second bottle.
