A.H. Riise XO 1888 Copenhagen Gold Medal Rum

 Flavors of warm spices, Christmas cake and orange peel, ending with a hint of English wine gums The aftertaste has notes of dried fruit, old oak and sherry

 Another packet of sugar from A.H. Riise. I'll never get the bottle empty. I always offer it to visitors who don't think much of rum. It always tastes really good to them 😀 Those who like it sweet will like it.

 Delicious, simple sweet rum to enjoy with a balanced distribution of fruit and spice.

 Too sweet, too artificial. Tastes like a lot of added sugar, but we know that from A.H. Riise. Had it again today in the sample set I received as a gift. Extremely sweet, unpleasantly artificial. I even had to reduce the score again (-5). Fortunately, others liked it, so I don't have to throw it away.

 Zuerst erschlägt der gelbe Obstsalat mit deutliche Birne dabei die süße. Am Gaumen spielt der Prirsich mit der Birne und etwas Lutschi im Butterscotch mit leichter Schärfe. Mittelfinger Abgang wo nach anfänglicher schärfe die süße bleibt

 Another representative of the flavored and sweetened high-proof spirit category. Smells and tastes like chewing gum. Sweet and fruity, you can drink it, but you don't have to. Fortunately, the sample is empty.

 Sehr weicher runder Geschmack. Leicht ölig und angenehm süß.

 What a weird thing. It is a terrible rum and a terrible liqueur. It isn't quite alcoholic and unspectacular. I really don't get this. If I want a rum it's not good. If I want a sweet treat it is too alcoholic, expensive too!

 Sehr guter Rum, leider nach gesüßt des wegen ein sehr süßer Rum aber des wegen ein rum für jeden auch für die die kein Rum mögen. Beim spielen mit Eis/Wasser kommen Wahnsinns Geschmacks Noten raus, jeder Schluck ist anderes und eine neue Erfahrung. Meiner Meinung nach ein sehr stabiler Rum.

 6,6:The nose announces a thick, sweet rum. It's a sort of mix of candy and berries, like a birthday party with tagada strawberries and grenadine. The caramelized sugar also makes you feel as if you're standing next to a cotton candy stand. A surprising air of lavender and citrus would have us think we were in Provence. Candied pomelo peel and fruits such as dried papaya bring a little freshness, or at least lift the rum a little from its syrupy side.The red fruits are confirmed with aeration, with a creaminess reminiscent of strawberry-milk lollipops. This is definitely a rhum bonbon, a concentrated syrup with a roundness all of its own. 5,5:The attack on the palate is very soft, with the thickness of a syrup and the sweetness of a confection. However, the candy is quite spicy and even pungent, like well peppered ginger. It remains rather light on the surface, gliding over the palate. Fruit candies melt on the tongue. 5:The finish will leave its mark on the taste buds for quite a long time, however, just the sweetness, a bit of a ginger flavor.

 Angenehme süße trifft auf Orangen, Aprikosen und etwas zitrus. Ein tolles Getränk!

 Endlich ein Riise der mir schmeckt 😉 Farblich wie Gelbgold. Der Geruch nach Pfirsich, Orange und Zitrus. Im Geschmack ist das fruchtige dominant. Schön mild. Endlich mal nicht der typische Riise Geruch und Geschmack. Aber immer noch mit viel Zucker.

 The sweet taste also comes out clearly here. Fruits like mango can be tasted

 Unnaturally sweet

 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 😊
