“#4554 18.01.2024 Flipping a few samples today ☺️ A nice medium fruity rum with light glue on the nose. The palate is intense yet fresh with a touch of cherry. The finish is medium long with natural sweetness to it. The empty glass has light nutts and faint Cafe latte.”

“very crisp and in your face, tawny port finish clearly noticeable and well integrated without the Fiji character (thyme, honey, smoke, coffee) to fully dominate. nevertheless, an intense affair, the 61% are clearly noticeable and give the whole thing a proper kick but not unpleasant, but you have to stand on it ;)”

“Port finish is something great, even if it is a bit dominant here?! The character of the Fiji Rum is difficult to identify yet. Lots of bitter chocolate, wine, sweet caramel and fruity grape berries. Relatively mild and round in the mouth for over 60%. Some alcoholic spiciness is there nonetheless. Finishes with lots of sweet grape and red wine, spicy, leathery, bitter chocolate.”

“Sample eingeschenkt und bei der Suche in RumX Mal rausgefunden daß er ein Tawny-Finish hat😅 ich mag Portwein seit ich zweimal Porto besuchen konnte also bitte😁 Die Nase zeigt schon Was Sache ist. Ordentlich Holz aber gefühlt eher aus dem Finish kommt durch. Vanille eher im Hintergrund. Das setzt sich am Gaumen fort, beeruge Aromen und Geschmack von dunkler Schokolade kommen durch und leider auch etwas zu viel Alkohol In Finish dann eher würzig, rote Frucht bleibt präsent aber auch der Alkohol. Eine interessante Abfüllung allemal.”
