How does this rum taste?
The Non Plus Ultra Sauternes Cask Finish rum, crafted by A.H. Riise in the Virgin Islands, showcases a rich bouquet of orange, peaches, and vanilla. Distilled from molasses and cask-aged for 25 years, it offers a sweet, fruity palate with prominent notes of orange, vanilla, and caramel.

Bottled at 42% ABV, this luxurious rum is well-balanced between fruit and barrel influences, making it a delightful choice for those seeking a sweet, citrus-forward sipping experience. Perfect for connoisseurs looking for a refined palate treat.

A very fruity and sweet rum matured in sauternes casks which is obvious in nose and palate. Too sweet but still nicely balanced between sweet, fruit and barrel flavours.
sehr sehr schöner fruchtiger Rum
Ein leckere Pfirsichbombe, mild und als Dessertrum herausragend. Trotz wesentlich längerer Reifung, vermisse ich aber den geschmacklichen Mehrwert im Gegensatz zum normalen XO Sauternes Cask. An Komplexität nimmt er nicht merklich zu, daher gilt es abzuwägen, ob man den erheblichen Mehrpreis für den zumindest schönen Glasdekanter bezahlen möchte.
Die ist mein Dritter NPU N: es steigen sofort Aromen von Zitrusfrüchte (Orangen/Mandarinen) und überreife Bananen auf! Diese überlagern alles andere, recht angenehm G: Cointreau ist mein erster Gedanke, nur milder und weicher, dann gesellt sich etwas Bitteres hinzu (geriebene Orangenschale) und eine starke, aber nicht ganz so unnatürliche Süße wie bei den beiden anderen NPU dazu, der Abgang ist kurz und unspektakulär, er bleibt sich treu (Orange und Süß) Als Dessertgetränk akzeptabel, mehr aber auch nicht!
