    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members talk about its unique sake-like nose and vegetal sugarcane character. Light at 40%, it brings warm spice with touches of oak, chocolate and a hint of smoke. Polarizing but interesting: some find it sweet and smooth, others alcohol-forward with a short finish. Often enjoyed after a long rest or with a cube. Popular on RumX with 155 reviews for its unconventional style.

    More cleaving there is not!!! A real UFO, if you like the extra terrestrial ones it is gained if not you leave running. One day I like it, one day I don't, a real curiosity that will not leave you indifferent but that will certainly not make the unanimity.

    Surprisingly sweet and smooth

    Nase: Erinnert an Agricole, sehr würzig und deutliche Zuckerrohraromen. Gaumen: Würzig warm zu Beginn, dann Kräuter, Tee. Es folgt Schokolade. Abgang: Die pflanzlichen Aromen sowie die Würze halten sich lange, bevor leichte Rauchnoten durchschimmern. Fazit: Ausgefalleneres Exemplar. Es überwiegen pflanzliche und kräuterige Noten mit einem Hauch Schoko. Mir gefällt der Japaner.

    Tasted only once and I didn't like it, alcoholic in the nose and in the mouth. Sake scent, as if there was a problem...Then, a little better with herbal notes. It has nothing of a tropical rum.
