Santos Dumont XO

Very mild and sweet taste. Smell honey and for me one of the most delicious rums.

This rum is so sweet and Nice. Leaves u with good smooth touch of the rum world. It round Well out but doesn’t give u that good special rum feeling at the end.

This is recommendable to most people. It is sweet without being cloying and an easy sipper. Try it out.

Dejlig fyldig sød Rom med en god og dejlig smag 🥃 👍

Sweet buttery smooth floral hints maybe a little honey

Honey, spices pleasant taste of vanilla, raisins, good sipping rum.

Moderately sweet with a unique spicey aroma and short finish. A bit of funk, which is not bad.

Nose: sweet, distinctive and lets say original. For me - bad. Overriped fruits mixed with some herbs definitely dominate the smell. Some other sweety tones (honey? vanilla?) are probably present as well but somewhat secondary. I can't say I like the smell as I find it disturbing. It reminds me some non Caribbean spiced rums more than classic XO rums. Somewhat vomitous. One of the worst noses ever.
Taste: sweet and dominated by the taste of some rotting fruits. I reckognize a strong herbal tones - maybe mint? For sure nothing I'd like to drink in big quantity. The fruity tones are still being present there. Never wished a refill of this.
Compared to other brands' XO's feels so sweet and fakey. Feels like strong elixir. I can have better or same quality sweet rum for just €15-20.
As usual, this rum gets fancy and classy bottling. But I feel somewhat upset to pay such money for a damn elixir. Rather not checking GPL levels...

interesting deep taste different to others.. Apricot, Coconut, Honey, Banana

This rum was one of the first things I tried and fell in love with. I considered him king before I got tired of his offshoots, Palmira, Tramin and Elixir. In all of them, I feel the overshoot of A.H.Risis, and after a few months, it starts to bother me. He is a king, but for starting and that was enough :-)

Tento rum byl jeden z prvním, které jsem zkusil a zamiloval si. Považoval jsem jej za krále, než jsem se nabažil jeho odnoží, Palmíry, Tramínu a Elixíru. Ve všech cítím přeslazenost A.H.Riise a po pár měsících se mi to začíná protivit. Je to král, ale pro rozjezd a stačilo :-)
