“Fidji's exchange semester in Barbados. No idea what they did with the 04 vintage. I like this one a lot. Nice complexity with a round mouthfeel. Edit Rum X Advent 2.12.22: would have blindly guessed Barbados again. Fiji where?”

“Blind 24DaysOfRum Tag 2: Ich hatte mich auf Venezuela festgelegt und lag voll daneben 😆 Die Nase vermittelt zuerst Fruchtigkeit und Vanille danach leichten Fasseinfluß. Am Gaumen sehr rund mit viel Vanille, Schokolade und wieder Fasseinfluß. Für Fiji verblüffend wenig Ester. Der Nachklang betont nochmal den Fasseinfluß und ein paar Tannine blitzen auf. Schöner einfacher Rum und wirklich unerwartet rund für Fiji.”

“Ich hätte hier eher auf Barbados oder Belize getippt, gepaart mit etwas Apfel und Salz. Mit der Zeit wird die Nase immer süßer. Im Mund röstiger, was aber mit zunehmendem Luftkontakt etwas abnimmt. Hinten raus wird es spannender und es kommt Schwarztee dazu. Holt mich insgesamt aber irgendwie nicht so ganz ab. Edit: RumX Adventskalender 2. Dezember: Schon mal im Glas gehabt, trotzdem nicht drauf gekommen… Tasting Notes minimal nachgebessert, sonst bleibt die Einschätzung hier gleich”
