    Today the three new bottlings of the Flag Series had to face our noses and palates, this was celebrated together with DomM. For me, the South Africa is the best of the three. The one from Vietnam is rather restrained, but as a mixer with cola it develops a nice fruitiness. The Indonesian is very unusual, but that makes it interesting. Nice to have tried them all.

    In the nose we are looking at an agricole style sensation with influence from the cognac cask. I get some sweetness and green apples. Not to intense overall. On the palate I like this quite a bit. Again, rather sweet with a honey like sensation. Towards the finish I get strong a sensation of backed apples and Christmas-y spices (cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg). For me the nices bottling I was able to taste out of the distillery so far.

    #4850 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 Faint wood, light vegetal, sweet, light grass, faint chocolate, citrus, light nutts. Palate Round, light sweet, light wood, faint floral, light vegetal, spice, light melon, oily, faint chocolate, light caramel. Finish Medium long, light wood, dried fruit, light chocolate, round, spice, light sweet. This was a huge surprise and a well done bottling and I hope for more like this from Vietnam.

    I like it much better than the Indonesia from the Flag Series. Grassy aromas, young wood and citrus fruits are the main features here. Slightly astringent and fresh on the palate. A little watery. The finish is short and alcoholic. Delicious! Many thanks @Zabo
