A long time on wishlist... Finally. I like it so much. Perfect balanced taste, alcohol, sweet and smell for me. Smooth but with deep body.
Unhiq XO Malt Rum is a Solera rum from the Dominican Republic whose oldest distillates are said to be between 25-30 years old. It comes from Oliver and Oliver. The rum is stored in bourbon and sherry barrels and is bottled with 42% drinking strength. Sugar caramel is added for the color. I think the rum is also sugared. The rum comes in a 0.5l bottle which is delivered with a wooden pedestal. The key data written by hand is a highlight.
The rum is not as strong in the nose as expected. Sweet caramel and fruity notes are in the foreground. Vanilla is also included. The nose is appealing without becoming intrusive. This rum wants to be drunk. On the palate, the rum is full-bodiedly sweet. It hardly burns. Caramel and vanilla and also oak are perceptible. Heavy caramelized fruit. Slightly woody. But above all, the sweetness remains. There is more to discover, but for me the sweetness covers a lot and distracts, because it invites you to consume it fast. The finish is slightly more spicy with bitter substances. Not as long as expected and for me nothing exciting comes in the after taste.
I have to admit that I was a bit disappointed. The Unhiq XO is good. It tastes delicious but I can't ignore the whole package. 1. It is certainly sugared. I guess 20-30g/l. 2. The presentation is half ready. Wooden pedestal but plastic cover!? 3. The 0.5l for 80-100 Euros are far too expensive. Others are just as good for less money (Malecon 25 or 20 Rare Proof). Here the price/performance ratio is not correct. I'll try other rums from Oliver and Oliver but for the Unhiq XO I wouldn't spend my money even if it tastes good... but not good enough. Simply said...: overpriced.
Der Unhiq XO Malt Rum ist ein Solera Rum aus der Dominikanischen Republik dessen Γ€ltestes Destillate zwischen 25-30 Jahre alt sein soll. Es kommt aus dem Hause Oliver und Oliver. Der Rum lagert in Bourbon und Sherry FΓ€ssern und wird mit 42% TrinkstΓ€rke abgefΓΌllt. Es wird ZuckerkulΓΆr fΓΌr die Farbe hinzugefΓΌgt. Ich glaube der Rum ist auch gezuckert. Der Rum kommt in einer 0,5l Flasche welche mit Holz Podest ausgeliefert wird. Wirkt alles ein wenig gewollt und nicht gekonnt. Die von Hand notierten Eckdaten wie Flaschennummer ist ein Highlight.
Der Rum ist in der Nase nicht so krΓ€ftig wie erwartet. SΓΌΓe karamellige und fruchtige Noten sind im Vordergrund. Vanille ist auch dabei. Die Nase ist ansprechend ohne aufdringlich zu werden. Der Rum will dann aber lieber getrunken werden. Am Gaumen ist der Rum vollmundig sΓΌΓ. Er brennt kaum. Karamel und Vanille und auch Eiche sind wahrnehmbar. Schweres karamellisiertes Obst. Leicht Holzig bleibt vor allem die SΓΌΓe bestehen. Da ist durchaus mehr zu entdecken, aber fΓΌr mich ΓΌberdeckt die SΓΌΓe viel und lenkt ab, da er dadurch sΓΌffig wirkt und eher zum schnellen Konsumieren einlΓ€d. Der Abgang ist etwas wΓΌrziger mit Bitterstoffen. Nicht so lang wie erwartet kommt fΓΌr mich im Nachklang nichts spannendes mehr.
Ich muss zugeben, dass ich etwas enttΓ€uscht war. Der Unhiq XO ist gut. Er schmeckt lecker aber ich kann das Gesamtpaket nicht ignorieren. 1. Er ist bestimmt gezuckert. 20-30g/l schΓ€tze ich. 2. Die Aufmachung ist halbgar. Holz Podest aber Plastik Deckel. 3. Die 0,5l fΓΌr 80-100 Euro sind fΓΌr mich viel zu teuer. Da sind andere fΓΌr weniger Geld genauso gut (Malecon 25 oder 20 Rare Proof). Hier stimmt das Preis/ LeistungsverhΓ€ltnis nicht. Ich werde andere Rums von Oliver und Oliver probieren, aber fΓΌr den Unhiq wΓΌrde ich das Geld nicht ausgeben auch wenn er mir schmeckt. Einfach ΓΌberteuert.
Just fantastic!!!
You can enjoy the smell for hours. Almonds and vanille. Sweet tobacco. Sweet - not too sweet - with some oak. A bit similar to Quorhum 30 aniversario.
The taste is even more excellent. Dried fruits, more tobacco, coffee and chocolate. Goes on and on for so long.
My favorite.
Thatβs how I like my rums
Sweet but not too much,smooth.
I have 2019 vintage, only 2000 bottles produced.
Comparing previous vintages it is less sweet, which probably makes it more acceptable.
One more great rum from Oliver & Oliver !
Taste is related to Ron Quorhum Solera 30, but a little smoother in everything...
Yum !!
One Of the Best rums ever tasted.... could easy be my New favorit
for me this is the upper range of the top shelf
zero burn, lots of raisins and caramel on the nose
the beautiful aromatic scent carry's through to the palate
bursting with juicy raisins with hints of chocolate molasses and slight cinnamon and nutmeg
this is not a dry rum but is not too sweet and thick either
perfect well balance rum for me
left me wanting more ,this should be a 700ml not a 500ml
well priced for the quality
What a Great Rum. From now on...this is my favourite.
