Rum & Cane Asia Pacific XO

Fresh taste, short aftertaste, too young, light color

fresh and sweet, great for sipping on a summer night

Enjoyed a bottle of Rum & Cane Asia Pacific XO in the middle of the Finnish wilderness. Definitely unique bottle and label design. Bright golden color. Strong tropical fruits complimented with plenty of sugarcane juice and floral notes to the nose and palate when neat sipped. Dry and short burn at the end. Easily forgettable rum.

N- Pale white wine hue suggested this probably natural colored with no additions which surely can only be a good thing. Opened up well with floral of orchid, earthy nutmeg and pungent on the outer edge. Caramelized steaming hot banana, certainly rum-ish with natural brown sugar and chocolate danish that aren't cloying. It said this is a blend of molasses spirit, thought i am quite sure a few generous spoons of Rhum are blended into this which added the layer of fiery but funky, meaty and almost petrol like nuances, or probably a young distilled rum, but no problem, still adored the lightness yet teasing characteristic. (89/22)

P- Quite up my alley with this one, remains clean, light and calms with less oak influence, but possess much substance with more distillate characters. Hint of juniper, leafy sweet, some phenol and bitter. Full ripe sour fruits, milky and pandan. (87/21)

F- Medium, dry and chewy, just a tinge spicy and nicely sweet. (86/20)

Body/Balance- 88/22

Weighted Rate- 85pt

Robe tres claire.
Attaque en bouche très nette avec prédominance d'epices et d'alcool.
Notes finales très épicées.
Au final, à part les épices ce rhum reste assez fade.

Fresh molasses with tropical fruit, cinnamon. Interesting but not exciting

Un nez avec des note de réglisse
Une bouche avec une bonne attaque, des notes d'épice et une bonne longueur.
