Fruity and mint-kissed, with peaches, mango and citrus over woody spice. Reviewers find it vibrant, though some note a short finish and aromas that fade with air.

    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members praise this Mauritius cask-strength XO for its expressive tropical fruit—especially peach and mango—lifted by refreshing minty notes. The palate brings yellow fruits, citrus, and warm spice over a gentle woody frame, with some finding a short, menthol-tinged finish. Selected by Old Brothers from Grays and limited to 1000 bottles, it’s a rising community favorite with 44 reviews and growing confidence for its distinctive, fruit-forward style.

    Ist jetzt kein sonderlich komplexer Rum, aber ich mag einfach diese tolle Pfirsich (Eistee) Note, welche hier wieder toll zur Geltung kommt. Dazu noch eine leichte Minznote und etwas Gewürze. Bringt auch relativ viel Süße mit, aber hier passt das ausnahmsweise ganz gut.

    Un rhum assez sympa. Le nez met du temps à s'ouvrir puis offre de beaux fruits tropicaux. La bouche est agréable, assez classique. La finale est originale sur le mentholé et la pêche.

    Found by chance in a small restaurant. Very pleasantly surprised! On the nose it seems good but without much surprise either, but on the palate it's very sweet, fruity and very good with spices and a dosage that reminds us that Antho worked on this bottling. It's really very good and goes great before the meal ❤❤🔥🔥Bravo Old Bro.

    Grays hat es drauf! Wieder ein toller Rum, der etwas unter dem Radar fliegt. etwas auf ser grasigen Seite mit jungem Holz, Karamell und viel Minze und ein leckerer Fruchtkorb aus Holz, in dem ein Bett aus frisch geschnittenem Gras ausgelegt ist. Darauf viele tropische Früchte, aber besonders Pfirsisch.
