Hi all,
Did you ever come across a rum with Kumquat flavor / taste? I have tasted a Bellevue 24 yr (Rum Artesanal Gouadeloupe Bellevue 1998 SFGB 0,5l 59,4%.).
Unfortunately, it is sold out.
Can you recommend similar flavor & taste profiles? Thanks!
First of all, welcome to the forum! I totally agree, the RA SFGB Bellevue 1998 is rather extreme as for its kumquats profile. Other SFGBs do not have it that extreme. Nevertheless you might find it there as well, to some extent, e.g. at the The Rum Cask bottling RX17126. As for other distilleries. I noted inter alia kumquats at the Rest & Be Thankful Clarendon RX17094 (but far from the intensity of the RA).
Where are you based?
It still can be found at weinquelle for an 30% inflated price and some niche shops at original price.
@Oliver searching for flavour tags is not implemented jet in the app, right?
Thank you for the swift reply and the warm welcome. Seems to be a nice community here
Great that you recommended two further rums. I chased after the Rum Cask without success…
Thanks for the hint, I saw it there!
That would have been the feature I was hoping for: Start from a flavor profile and get recommendations for similar rums.
You can get it here still for the release price, I think.
