How does this rum taste?
Reviewers are talking most about the bold mix of peaty smoke and overripe tropical fruit, a combination that stands out from typical Hampden rums. Notes of intense banana, pineapple, and powerful esters blend with that unmistakable peated whisky influence. Some enjoy it as a unique crossover for whisky fans, especially neat. While not for everyone, it's recommended for those curious about adventurous flavor pairings, especially if you appreciate smoke.

#4861 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 Intense, faint wood, ester, fruity, overripe, banana, spice, peat, light smoke, light glue. Palate Intense, ester, light wood, warm, fruity, overripe, banana, faint pineapple, faint nutts, peat, light smoke, dry. Finish Very long and warm, light wood, ester, faint roasted, light smoke, peat, pineapple, medium dry. This is a bomb if you like whisky in my mind, the peated/smoke notes are definitely there and I like smoke. Price to quality can be argued 😊
Onion , sulfurous, undrinkable
Ve vůni se mísí jamajská mísa tropického ovoce s peated whisky. Čím déle se nechá odležet, tím vice cítím jamajské tóny. Chuťově to není vůbec zlé. Příjemně nasládlé a ovocné, finiš se spíš projeví v závěru, který není zas tak intenzivní jak bych čekal. Na roční zrání a vysoké ABV docela v pohodě.
Tasted with live whisky. I really didn't find it interesting, it doesn't work, and you lose the hampden :(
