    #4925 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 Medium intense, light wood, fruity, light berries, cherry, light vegetal, round. Palate Balanced, oily, round, light wood, light roasted, light spicy, pineapple, light cherry, medium dry, light berries. Finish Long and warm, light wood, light citrus, light strawberry, round, faint earthy, oily. This is a very good release and I had to try it a few times just because that is what you can do at the WL 😊

    A rum tasted at Whisky Live in Paris in 2024. A vegetal nose with dry herbs, controlled oak and dried fruit. The palate is full-bodied, with the same aromas and a predominance of dried fruit on the herbal/woody side. Here too, the woodiness is under control. The finish is a little dry, with dried herbs and wood, which is not the best effect and detracts from the note. Otherwise a very good rum.

    Whisky Live Paris 2024 (trade fair evaluation, only overall rating and personal recommendation to buy): Very tasty, I liked it very much. Would have liked a bottle of it.

    Le nez est clairement sur des esters assez vifs et intenses. Il faut vraiment du temps pour se familiariser à ce côté vernis à ongle pas très agréable, pour le dépasser et sentir autre chose. Ce nez est très alcoolique, avec ces marqueurs sur le kirsch. On sent un peu le côté Porto mais le tout est quand même bien agressif. Quelques accents végétaux complètent le tableau. Pas terrible. La bouche est tout aussi puissante, avec beaucoup d'esters encore. Heureusement, le vernis s'efface mais il y a un côté très gras sur la langue. C'est huileux et intense, avec du rôti, du fumé façon viande boucanée. Le fruité est plus présent qu'au nez. Il y a aussi des épices de cuisine (piment, poivre vert) et le fût de Porto se fait bien sentir, avec aussi de la cerise. La finale est très longue sur du boisé léger, et les épices.
