    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members love the burst of peach and red fruits with caramel, cocoa and warm spice, lifted by a fresh minty touch. Oak and vanilla frame it without getting heavy for most. At 60% cask strength, it’s powerful yet controlled and opens nicely with a little water. A limited Mauritian single cask of 300 bottles, well rated by 70 reviewers—great fruit, personality and good value.

    Wow, dieser hier ist Extraklasse. Die Nase ist schön holzig und vor allem rauchig. Am Gaumen ist er ebenfalls würzig und holzig. Überwiegend kann ich hier aber wieder Minze erkennen. Ein echt leckeres Teil.

    Wow, an der Nase erinnert er mich an einen Guyana Rum oder auch an einen Foursquare, wobei hier Zitrusfrüchte und andere Früchte wie Pfirsich dominant sind, vor allem wenn man ihm genügend Zeit zum Atmen gibt. Viel geröstete Schokolade, Gewürz, Karamell, Holz und allerlei Frucht. Im Mund sehr angenehm, trotz 60°. Komplexer Rum, in diesem Preissegment, ein wahrer Hit.

    So, now it has happened: This is my new Mauritius Croesus, Emotion 1969 (RX2495) has been knocked off the throne. For a better comparison though tasted against the Savoir Faire from the successor year 2010 (RX13444), but that does not change my verdict. The 2009 is perceptibly more intense and complex on both the nose and palate than the 2010. I particularly like that lovely oily fruitiness on the palate. It's just a shame that I only had a sample of the rum. If I had a bottle of that, I would split it immediately.

    Super nose, totally harmonious, slightly sweet and gentle. On the palate, however, it is bursting with power. Very dark notes and a great light, subtle menthol note on the finish. I think it's really super strong.
