    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members highlight an intense bitter‑orange and mandarin core, lifted by fresh yellow fruits and light young wood. Some note chocolate‑orange, vanilla and a gentle herbal touch, with a crisp, slightly hot 50% finish. A bold experiment from Grays, Mauritius, selected by Vagabond Spirits and discussed in 15 community reviews. If citrus‑driven profiles appeal, this distinctive sipper is steadily winning curious palates.

    So I have to say really exciting and wacky. Orange, tangerine and yellow fruits at the beginning. The taste is slightly sweet and a bit of bitter orange peel is added. The finish is nice, slightly woody and pleasant.

    Lots of yellow fruit, tangerine, orange, peach, with a strong apricot finish. Somewhere there are light herbs, a little wood and caramel. The rum also has something of a tart tatin and isotonic drink powder. Alcohol integration and the somewhat short finish dampen the impression.

    30 minutes of aeration, It's surprisingly similar to the alcohol found in grandfather's bar, but it's a nice surprise, I tasted a few drops of Cointreau at the same time, and it's very close, but with a more gourmand touch, and the touch of rum that you find in the texture and on the finish, perhaps that gourmand caramel note, I have the impression that Nicolas wanted to revitalize an old orange spirit with a touch of rum, and if that's the case, he's succeeded.

    #5619 31.08.2025 Tasting at the German Rum Fest 2025. This one is definitely orangy in the profile, a bit too much I think. Easy drinkable though with light wood, floral, herbs and fruity notes. On the palate and finish their is a perfume note that wasn't really me.
