Retasting at Romdeluxe. Had a relaxing online tasting yesterday and it had a vide spread between low and high end rums. A very well balanced rum. Price to quality is very good.
Mir persönlich viel zu viel Sherry Einfluss der den Rum komplett dominiert und ihn Recht anstrengend sauer, bitter und süß macht... Kein Wunder nach 16 Monate finish in oloroso & px Fässern! Muss nicht sein...
On The Rocks: One the nose it has a sweetness with vanilla and spices. Taste reveals a smooth strong sweetness with vanilla air spice followed with a slight burn. There are also some fruit and floral notes. In the finish the sweetness continues but the spice fades away quickly. This is an enjoyable sipper that is nicely balanced. Mixed Pepsi Zero: One the nose it has a very mild sweetness. Taste has a very smooth but mild honey sweetness with some slight underlying spice with charred oak. Mixed it washes out the rum, suggest only as a sipper at this price point.
Un profil qui n’est pas très convaincant. Le nez est très liquoreux, avec beaucoup de notes de raisins et d’influence du fût de sherry. La noix de coco, le sucre brûlé, le caramel et la vanille n’arrangent rien quant au taux de diabète. En bouche, c’est un rhum assez contraste qui s’offre à nous : léger dans les arômes, mais plutôt dense en termes de texture. Le sherry va de pair avec les raisins. On retrouve aussi le caramel, un côté vanillé et pimenté ainsi qu’un léger boisé. Rien de révolutionnaire dans tout cela. La finale est un peu plus vive et longue qu’espérée, attisée par l’amertume, le poivre, la résine et le sucre brûlé. Là où le Gran Reserva de Rum Nation avait un peu de caractère avec ses notes florales, ce XO célèbre plutôt mal le 20ème anniversaire de son embouteilleur, en passant totalement dans l’oubli et les méandres des rhums hispaniques.
