How does this rum taste?
Most love its refined, woody-fruity agricole profile and great balance; critics find it a bit thin, bitter or soapy. Consensus: a high-quality, elegant vintage that shines more on nose than palate.
If you enjoy refined, cognac-leaning agricoles like aged Clément or J.M, this Bally should click: complex nose, dry woody palate, and no sugar, but don’t expect cask-strength intensity.
Those who dislike grassy/vegetal profiles, want rich sweetness or heavy body, or are very sensitive to tannic bitterness and light soapiness.

RumX Adventskalender 2024 Tag 1 Angenehme Süßlich Florale Nase Würzig aber sehr mild. Etwas Seifig Bitter im Mund... etwas Menthol. Alkohol kaum spürbar weder in der Nase noch am Gaumen . Lecker aber etwas Flach .
Tag 1. RumX Adventskalender Bei der Blindverkostung habe ich schon in die richtige Richtung getippt. Leider ist dieser ganze französische Stil nicht mein Favorit von Profil. Nett ihn probieren zu dürfen, aber ich werde nicht so richtig warm damit. Seit den Velier St.James Tasting bin ich da ein gebrannten Kind.
Erster Tag des Adventskalenders 2024: an der Nase leicht säuerlich, grünes Gemüse, alter Madeira, Apfelkompott, altes Fass, Karamell, Politur. Am Gaumen mild-rund, Piment, im Abgang Tannine und Rosinen
Blindverkostung Rum X Adventskalender 2024, 1. Advent Auf jeden Fall ein Rum aus Zuckerrohrsaft. Wäre hier eher bei Martinique, gut gereift (15 Jahre+?), niederer ABV mit einer 4 vorne. Bin kein Agricole Fan, aber schätze den Adventskalender vor allem auch dafür, dass man Sachen probiert, die man sonst nicht probieren würde. Der hier schmeckt mir ganz gut.
