A. H. Riise XO Reserve Christmas

Super god Rom til prisen, virkelig lækker i smagen af jul og godt til alle, smager som mange andre AH Rom

Very interesting rum from A. H. Riise as per usual :-) Even has 40 % it is very strong. Smell is like ginger bread and it also tastes like that :) I can taste almonds, cinnamon, caramel and honey.

Rating as the first one from calendar we are starting at 8/10 :)

Great for christmas! Waint! It should be against the law to have a christmas without this rum

Sweetness 10/10
Overall 8/10

A great rum for the holidays. Very sweet (maybe too much for some), but vere enjoyable and great for beginners (like me).

US Virgin Islands, 40%,
I was struck by the taste of Christmas filled with cinnamon, gingerbread and star anise. It was nice and very pleasant drink.

Honiggelb im Glas.
In der Nase zurückhaltend und unaufdringlich. Da wird zu Weihnachten ein ganz besonderes Fass mit allerlei Leckereien befüllt. Reife tropische Früchte, Bananen, Karamell, Vanille, Lakritze, Nüsse...
Am Gaumen besinnlich und weich. Orangen, Bananen und Karamell sind die heiligen Könige und zeigen Präsenz. Holz, Vanille und Kakaonuancen sind eher die Schafe am Bildrand.
Im Abgang lang und süss. Orangen, Nüsse und Lakritze erlöschen mit der letzten Kerze am Weihnachtsbaum.
Ein anspruchsloser Rum der Festtagen sicher Allen gefällt. Für Beginner und Süssrümler.

Honey yellow in the glass.
In the nose restrained and unobtrusive. There is a very special barrel filled with all kinds of goodies at Christmas. Ripe tropical fruits, bananas, caramel, vanilla, licorice, nuts....
Contemplative and soft on the palate. Oranges, bananas and caramel are the holy kings and make their presence felt. Wood, vanilla and cocoa nuances are rather the sheep on the edge of the picture.
Long and sweet on the finish. Oranges, nuts and licorice go out with the last candle on the Christmas tree.
An unpretentious rum of the festive season certainly pleases all. For beginners and sweet rum drinkers.

English style? Citrusy but over sweetened. Caramel, vanilla, ginger bread or some cookie dough stuff? Not top notch A. H.

I like this Christmas edition of XO Reserve, it smells and tastes after gingerbread, strong taste and pleasant finish. Very nice start of AHRiise calendar 2020 :-)

Doftar marsipan nejlika och choklad, smakar jul kanelstång och söt mandelmassa
