    "The typical sake aroma of some other Nine Leaves is somewhat less pronounced here due to the finish. The higher vol. % content compared to other Nine Leaves is particularly positive here as it gives the rum stronger aromas and more complexity."

    "RumX Advent calendar, 10.12., blind. First impression right impression! It's unmistakable! Nose: lots of aromas, roasty-smoky, spicy nutmeg powder, clearly red wine/Armagnac, resinous-fresh, nutty in the direction of hazelnut. But also fruity and almost floral. Old grape and a hint of raspberry. Definitely dried, sulphurized apricot. Palate: Wow, intense and concentrated, tannins, not dull, but rather fresh. Something citrusy, tipping towards violet. And it's also roasted and spicy, cardamom, nutmeg and pepper. Spicy and salty at first, then becoming sweeter. There is also some menthol and iodine. Spicy sweet finish, aniseed, tea. Even though I usually don't like after-ripening, this one improves the Nine Leaves immensely. But it remains special."
