    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members love its classic Panama profile: caramel, vanilla and wood, with hints of cedar and tropical fruit. Despite 59%, the alcohol is well integrated and the finish medium-long and pleasant. Reviewers call it accessible and good value, enjoyable neat and even in an Old Fashioned. A 2002 column-still release aged 21 years, bottled in just 299 bottles—confidence-building choice among early reviews.

    Very good value for money for a 22 year old rum!

    Für mich der bisher beste Rum des Herbstreleases 2024 von S.B.S. Alkohol sehr gut eingebunden, Vanille, Karamell und Holz im Mittelpunkt; sehr angenehmer Abgang.

    A rum tasted at the GRF in 2024, S.B.S. Masterclass. A nose of cedar wood with tropical fruit, vanilla and caramel. The palate is marked by alcohol at first, then cedarwood, caramel and vanilla. The finish is moderately long, with caramel and stewed fruit. A good rum, well selected but not very complex.

    Fair evaluation. Tasted as part of the S.B.S. tasting. For me, a classic rum from Panama. On the nose and also on the palate, mainly caramel, vanilla and wood. Very accessible, but not particularly exciting.
