PX sherry adds sweetness to citrus and yellow fruits, with woody, spicy notes. Alcohol can feel a bit strong, but the profile is interesting for tasting sessions.

    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members call out the PX sherry influence first: sweet citrus (think yuzu), yellow fruits, and a touch of honey on the nose, with spice, wood, and light vegetal notes on the palate. Some note the 60% ABV feels present, yet the sherry adds welcome sweetness and interest. Reviewed by 10 members, this limited 464-bottle release suits tasting sessions and anyone curious about Nine Leaves' experimental style.

    #5714 27.09.2025 Day one of the Whisky Live 2025, which this year looks better organized/arranged inside. I was excited about this release because lats years releases were pretty good. I did get disappointed though because I think the quality dropped quite a bit. Light fruity with some sugarcane, herbal and spice notes. The sake notes are very subtle in the profile. There is also a light medicinal touch in the profile.

    Un rhum dégusté au Whisky Live Paris en 2025. Le Sherry se sent au nez et il apporte de la douceur. Le saké est au second plan derrière les agrumes (yuzu) et les fruits jaunes. L’alcool est un peu trop présent en bouche mais l’impression est entière avec pas mal d’épices. La finale est moyenne avec un bois et un côte saké un peu plus marqués. De la douceur aussi. Les deux single cask n’ont fait bonne impression mais j’ai préféré le chêne espagnol pour sa meilleure intégration de l’alcool.

    Messetasting Whisky Live Paris. Eindrücke und Bewertung basieren auf unmittelbaren Eindrücken aus dem Tastingglas. Leider ein eher flacher Rum, der merklich vom Sherry-Fass profitiert, da durch die Süsse etwas mehr Spannung ins Profil kommt. Davon abgesehen für mich nur bedingt überzeugend.

    Cette année, j’ai pu déguster toute la lineup, et… malheureusement, ce n’est pas mieux. Les rhums sont plus jeunes (2017 à 2020) et, globalement, encore moins convaincants. La série mise surtout sur les finishes : 2020 Sherry Pedro Ximénez – 60 % et 59 % 2018 Spanish Oak – 59 % 2018 Armagnac Cask – 59 % 2017 Red Wine Cask – 60 % S’il fallait en sauver un, ce serait le 2018 Spanish Oak : une finale dense, corsée, avec cette impression de “mâcher un bâton de réglisse”. Intéressant, sans être transcendant. On sent clairement que cette gamme reste expérimentale, en quête d’un équilibre entre la base et le type de vieillissement. Mais pour l’instant, je dois l’avouer : je ne suis pas le public visé. Des rhums de dégustation plus que de plaisir, parfaits pour un club de dégustation ou une session découverte, mais pas vraiment des bouteilles que j’aurais envie de garder dans mon bar.
