    #5700 27.09.2025 Launch of the future RumX Release. Nose Fresh, wood, light roasted, light anise, light floral, faint tar, faint banana, faint mint. Palate Wood, roasted, medium spicy, faint mint, faint cherry, light licorice, faint tar, warm, light astringent. Finish Very long and warn, medium spicy, wood, light tannins, light dried fruit Empty glass Light wood, light caramel, light dried fruit, faint sour, faint mint.

    A rum tasted at bar 1802 during the RumX party at WLP25 and at the first RumX meeting. A nose with a very broad aromatic palette, but each component appears a little timid, drowned in the mass. Edit: re-tasted and the Jamaican and Guyanese notes take over. The first taste is soft, then the aromas rise a little. Here too, a very broad aromatic palette where the fruity, floral and spicy notes of the TDL dominate. Edit: TDL is rather dominated by Jamaica and Guyana. The finish is balanced and elegant. A great success, even if the quest for balance was, for my taste, to the detriment of personality. Edit: the finish is less balanced but has more personality. I prefer it. I don't feel the Caroni in the blend. Edit: the Caroni is perceptible at the very end. It doesn't seem to be the same rum, Oliver explains that it was well oxygenated before the final bottling.

    Very well balanced and exceptionally enjoyable. Needs some time in the glas to open up and show its full potential.

    8,7:On the nose, copper, roasted wood and allspice, evolve pastry, tropical fruits like banana, minty, flowery molasses, bump into our nosetrils. On long aeration, it's potential grows and balances, as tons of various confectionery arises, salted caramel, roasted nuts, some anise, delightful red fruits and rubber, tar. 8,7:On the palate, the attack shows the complexity of this rum with tons of roasted wood notes like butterscotch, roasted nuts, various confectionery, sweet and salty, spices, pure oak, as tropical fruits like banana and pineapple, cherries, minty molasses, even dark with licorice, industrial marks with rubber and tar, quite strong copper, even esters. 8,6:The finish is long, tannic, the roasted wood shows darker facet with cocoa, still spicy, the molasses is fresh and minty, the fruits dried and tropical.
