"It’s a nice, smooth, subtle and complex Agricole from nose via palate to the medium long finish. The nose have recognizable aromas of spices, vanilla, oak and fruits. At the palate and during the medium long finish the aromas comes back as flavors."

"#13 RumXCalendar Blind tasting: Nose: vanilla, grass, sugarcane, young wood M: earty, grass, agricole, floral, dark chocolate F: oak, vanilla, black tea, soft Prediction: this one is tricky classic sugarcane in the nose, but an agricole feeling in the mouth…i would go with an rum from guatemala, or near! approx. 50%, it‘s a young rum max. 10years…. Quick a good rum, but lacks at the finish. Alcohol is intergrated very well. Nose: sugarcane, vanilla, grass, young wood Mouth: Dry, creamy, delicious, grass, agricole, earthy, dark chocolate, cherry, vanilla, young wood Finish: short, dry, soft, earthy, herbal, vegetal, black tea, young wood, vanilla"

"Frankly, I am amazed at this original bottling. This is how I think a standard bottling should be. Has this nice karukera chocolate and oak combination. Some bitterness and some ester. Compared to some indie bottlings that are considerably more expensive this is an absolute win!"

"RumX Advent calendar, 13.12.2021, blind. First impression on the nose tells me something with red wine, possibly a finish? Otherwise hay, candied orange peel and fruit bread, among other things. Smells quite sweet. Also sweet on the palate at first, but then suddenly turns dry. Unfortunately a little thin. I would guess that this is a rum made from sugar cane juice, approx. 45%. The late palate and finish are surprisingly floral with notes of violets. Good, but unfortunately too thin, otherwise even more exciting."
