I'm Oliver – together with Jakob, Robert, and Lukas, we started RumX in 2018 as a small passion project in Stuttgart, back then under the name Rum Tasting Notes.
What began as a digital tasting diary is now the world's most comprehensive platform for rum fans: over 25,000 bottlings, 270,000+ independent reviews, and an active community with 50,000 members. We combine the collective intelligence of our community with an integrated marketplace, allowing you to shop securely and manage your collection directly from the app.
The goal? To offer you, the rum connoisseur, a place where you can choose with confidence—without paperwork, detours, or expert jargon.











NOSE: Super fruity; sweet banana, grilled pineapple, mango, papaya, cherry, raspberry, a symphony of mainly tropical fruits. Light oily notes; kerosene and diesel, slight smoky mescal notes. Diving deeper; a trove of medicinal smells as well; camphor, gauze bandage. Wonderful (92-93p) TASTE: The arrival is slightly oily, it’s tropical, (just) a little peppery. Mid palate: oily kerosene and diesel notes compete with tropical fruitiness. Exit & aftertaste also a bit oily/waxy, equal parts mild sweetness and black pepper. Takes water well but perhaps best w/o. (91) OVERALL: Close to perfect: 92p.
My first Clairin! An exquisite surprise and i had the pleasure to share that specific bottle with the members of Hypnotic Brass Ensemble after their show at the New Morning back then in 2016. Beautiful Memories!
