How does this rum taste?
RumX members love its explosive fresh sugarcane character and how the 71.2% stays surprisingly balanced. Bright citrus and green apple lead into vegetal, floral cane, minty freshness and a touch of anise/licorice; some note faint smoke and a lingering finish. Often sipped slowly, sometimes used in Ti' Punch. With 45 reviews and a rising trust level, it’s a confident choice for high-proof cane-juice rum fans.

Hard to describe. Reminds me somehow of sambuca or ouzo because of the licorice and anise / fennel notes. Overall rather sweet salty and slightly bitter. Alcohol is not particularly disturbing but the basic flavor is just not my thing. In ti punch then something like pear and fig comes to the fore, as well as salty peanuts. Quite nice but I do not have to have again.
#5462 07.07.2025 Relaxing with a few samples after a tough workday, Nose Fresh, floral, light acidic, light dried fruit, citrus, spice, faint olive, light sugarcane. Palate Oily, floral, citrus, light sugarcane, light passionfruit, light anise, faint olive, light salt, light vegetal. Finish Medium to long, oily, faint smoke, passionfruit, light citrus, light anise, light sugarcane. Empty glass Citrus, licorice, light olive, light vegetal, olive.
Superb balance: you can feel the degrees and the power, but the vegetal side comes out perfectly and wraps everything in freshness. For me, this is still the best value for money for a brut de collone on Marie Galante and even Guadeloupe.
Greedy and not aggressive nose in spite of the 71.2% on the counter! We find obviously fresh sugar cane. But also vegetable notes, green apple and lemon. In mouth, it is rum, real, intense. Of the cane which explodes in mouth, it is ample and very vegetable. It is incredible elegance and precision for such a concentration. The fresh cane unfolds and melts in the mouth with a slightly smoky side. It is fresh and spicy. It does not leave you indifferent. We like it but we plunge our lips into it only very slowly because of the guy! The finish is long.
