The A. H. Riise Riyal Danish Navy comes from the Virgin Islands. It is said to have been stored in oak barrels for up to 20 years. The original recipe is a big secret, but one should not forget that A. H. Riise was a pharmacist and the addition of herbs and other substances was his business. Therefore, it is probably a spiced rum. Sugar caramel and a borderline high sugar content of 66g/l is guaranteed.

In the nose it is clear that something is not right here. Powerful almost biting aromas flow out of the glass. Sugar, molasses, honey, caramel, lots of fruit like orange and other citrus fruits. Who has already had one or the other rum in the nose, will notice that it seems artificial. On the palate I immediately had the thought that I drink a liqueur. Sugar-sweet, the rum is very sticky in the mouth. Fruit and a lot of vanilla is notable. This combination is reminiscent of fruit gum. Some spice enhances it minimally. The liqueur, I mean rum is quite mild. In the Finish you have to endure the aroma chaos with the heavy sweetness before the Horror ends.

Without being disrespectful, it is one of the few bottles where I have considered getting rid of it. The Royal Navy Rum is a borderline box. A mecca for the fans of extra sweet sweet rums who do not give a damn. Far away from what i appreciate and like. Absolutely creepy and in my opinion no rum at all.

Der A. H. Riise Riyal Danish Navy kommt von den Jungferninseln. Angeblich lagert er bis zu 20 Jahren in Eichenfässern. Das Original Rezept ist ein großes Geheimnis, man sollte aber nicht vergessen das A. H. Riise Apotheker war und die Zugabe von Kräutern und anderen Stoffen sein Geschäft war. Daher handelt es sich wahrscheinlich um einen spiced Rum. Zuckerkulör und ein grenzwertig hoher Zuckergehalt von 66g/l ist dabei garantiert.

In der Nase ist es dann auch klar das hier was nicht stimmen kann. Kräftige fast schon beißende Aromen strömen aus dem Glas. Zucker, Melasse, Honig, Karamell, viel Frucht wie Orange und andere Zitrusfrüchte. Wer den ein oder anderen Rum schon in der Nase hatte merkt aber das es künstlich wirkt. Am Gaumen hatte ich sofort den Gedanken das ich einen Likör trinke. Zuckersüß breitet sich der Rum klebrig im Mund aus. Etwas Frucht und viel Vanille sind nennenswert. Diese Kombination erinnert an Fruchtgummi. Etwas Würze wertet es minimal auf. Mild ist der Likör, ich meine Rum. Im Abgang muss ma dann das Aroma Chaos mit der kaum zu ertragenen Süße ertragen bevor das Grauen ein Ende hat.

Ohne Respektlos zu sein ist es einer der wenigen Flaschen, bei der ich überlegt habe sie zu entsorgen. Der Royal Navy Rum ist eine grenzwertig Kiste. Ein Mekka für die Fans extra süffiger süßer Rums, welchen alles egal ist. Ganz weit weg von dem was ich schätze und mag. Absolut gruselig und meiner Meinung nach kein Rum welcher entsprechend deklariert werden müsste.

A. H. Riise have risen in popularity in recent years, especially in my home country of Denmark, but the sad truth is, that this bottle have as little to do with rum as it has to do with Denmark.

Nose: Very sugary smell with notes of orange and a small hint of liquorice
Taste: Big load of sugar and caramel with small subtle hints of black liquorice and mocca
Overall: This is a very popular rum, but it is really not for me in any way. I simply don´t get the hype. It has little to do with both navy-style, Denmark or even rum in general.

Has nothing to do with Rom. Its a sweet liqueur. It is way to sweet.

There are better riise rums. This one is sweet but lacking some of the character that the better XO has.

Fin rom. Lidt mindre sød ind alle andre de A. H. Riise rom som jeg syns er godt.

On the nose, fake orange aroma, on the palate, liquid candy. Has over 100 g/l of added sugar, which rivals Coca Cola and other soft drinks. I would not have a problem with this, if it was marketed as liquid candy, but this is marketed as rum, which it most definitely is not. The very notion that sailors would drink this sugary pudding is ridiculous. If you want good navy style rum, go for Pusser's Gunpowder, OVD or Woods. Stay away from this.

If you wanna get a sugarhigh this rum is for you! By far the sweetest rum I have ever tasted. More a liqueur than a rum. The taste is nice except for the overwhelming sweetness. For me there must be a fine balance in the sweetness in a rum, if it's to much it destroyes the rum. The smell is full of punchpralines, vanilla, arrak and rumraisins. The smell is the same as the taste. This is a overpriced rum, not worth the money. Maybe the other A. H. Rise rums are better.

This one is really too sweet, disappointed me a bit, especially for the price. Bottle looks cheap. Taste reminds just pralines.
Not recommendable from my side.
