How does this rum taste?
The Single Barrel from Rhum J.M, distilled in 1999 and aged for 21 years in Martinique, offers a complex profile. This limited release of 400 bottles is crafted from sugarcane juice and aged on site, resulting in notable woody and roasted aromas. Users note its balanced woodiness complemented by fruity undertones, nutmeg, and subtle spice. However, some drinkers find it to carry a slightly soapy or astringent note. Despite its inviting bouquet of dried apricots, cinnamon, and tobacco, opinions vary on its palate presence, with some describing it as thin. Overall, this rum remains a solid choice for both agricultural rum enthusiasts and those seeking a well-aged spirit from the iconic Rhum J.M distillery.

Tag 21 RumX Adventskalender 2024: Relativ schnell heute einen Agricole erkannt, aber nicht mein Lieblingsprofil unbedingt. Deshalb aus Zufall auf J.M getippt, reines Glück. Insgesamt gesehen hat er mir doch ganz gut geschmeckt, aber trotzallem wirkt er sehr verwässert und bekommt hinten raus nach Standzeit eine seifig/parfümierte Note, das mag ich halt nicht.
RX Kalender 24: das Schwesterfass von RX7561. Der J.M gefällt mir gut an der Nase - Apfel, Quitte, Zimtstange, Frische, altes Eichenfass (alte Kommode). Am Gaumen Muskatnuss, herb, Tanine, trockener Abgang. Der eher niedrige ABV ist hier kein Problem.
Tag 21 des RumX-Adventskalenders: Gut gereift, rund und elegant. Allerdings auch ein wenig substanzlos in der Konsistenz und zu schnell verflogen, um länger im Gedächtnis zu bleiben. Es gibt hier absolut keine Fehlaromen und es stellt sich mit wiederholtem Nippen auch ein schönes Trinkgefühl ein, aber irgendwie fehlt mir hier etwas, um mich vollends abzuholen.
You can taste the tropical maturation, glue, clear wood influence. I would have guessed a finish, because there is some dark, spicy, fruity note.
