    Habe den Rum zuerst in der Masterclass auf dem GRF probiert und jetzt erneut im RumX Tasting. Der Eindruck aus beiden Tastings ist sehr konsistent. Es ist ein leichter, einfacher Rum , aber als solcher für mich einer der besten in der Kategorie. Er bringt viel mehr Aroma mit als die weißen spanischen Mixer, ist aber nicht so brachial wie die Jamaikaner. Für mich geht der Rum so wie er ist schon fast als Aperitif durch. Mit etwas Säure oder Wermut lassen sich bestimmt hervorragende Drinks mixen. Aromatisch geht der Rum all-in für die Banane, dazu noch etwas reife gelbe Früchte wie Honigmelone. Daneben eine Vanille aus der Eiche, dazu eine schöne Mineralik, die im Mund noch deutlicher zum Tragen kommt. Mir gefällt er sehr gut und ich frage mich, warum ich nicht längst eihe Flasche im Schrank habe.

    Savanna Masterclass for RumX 2024. A nose dominated by banana and vanilla. A little vegetal (mint?), and sweet. The first palate is acqueous, with a hint of dilution. The banana is very present. The finish is short, with freshness, a slight menthol and a slight woodiness that was barely perceptible before. An unpretentious but pleasant rum to drink.

    Aftertaste of the missed Savanna Masterclass ... unpleasantly alcoholic on the nose despite the measly 40%. Sweet and fruity with vanilla, yellow stone fruit, banana, grape and lemon. For me, more suitable for mixing than for pure enjoyment and not really my cup of tea. Not finished.

    #4730 20.05.2024 Relaxing at home with a few samples. Nose Light, fruity, fresh, light floral, faint chocolate. Palate Light, fruity, pineapple, light floral, faint chocolate, faint wood, spices. Finish Short to medium, light, fresh, fruity, light citrus, faint wood, faint chocolate. The empty glass has stronger chocolate notes as well as vanilla and dried fruits.
