I got a batch of samples and time to rate them. In general A. H. Riise rums are sweet and this one is no exception. A very sweet and fruity rum with some vanilla and caramel. I usually use these rums to spice up my icecream 😊

Dieser Rum ist sehr süß und schmeckt irgendwie künstlich, erinnert ein wenig an Dr. Oetker Rum Aroma. Beim Nachtesten war das künstliche Aroma fast nicht mehr vorhanden, das wertet den Rum deutlich auf.

Zu süß, zu künstlich. Schmeckt nach sehr viel zugesetztem Zucker, kennt man von A.H. Riise ja aber. Heute erneut im geschenkten Sample Set gehabt. Extrem süß, unangenehm künstlich. Habe die Punktzahl sogar nochmal reduzieren müssen (-5). Zum Glück hat er anderen geschmeckt, sodass ich ihn nicht wegschütten muss.

Ein weiterer Vertreter aus der Kategorie aromatisierte und gesüßte hochprozentige Spirituose. Riecht und schmeckt wie Kaugummi. Süß und fruchtig, kann man trinken, muss man aber nicht.

Fast zu süß für mich, trotzdem kommen die Riise-typischen Aromen gut durch. Riise ist mir grundsätzlich fast immer zu spicig, aber trotzdem einen Schluck wert.
