South Pacific RA Fiji Rum FSDP 2001

People are genuinely split on this one. It's a 22-year Fiji pot-still that veers way off the usual 2001 profile — instead of tropical fruit and funk, you get a big herbal, almost gin-like wave: fennel, juniper, pine resin, menthol and a medicinal edge. Some tasters find that fascinating and dynamic; others miss the funk and call it unbalanced, with the alcohol not always tucked in.

  • Unusual herbal profile
  • Long dry finish

RumX Community Tasting Fiji 2001. A nose dominated by pine resin, but also vegetal, toasted, orange peel, menthol and candy-like notes. The candy comes back on the palate, with a sweet/pastry side. Vegetal/pine resin and cedar wood. The finish is long, with vegetal notes, pine resin and menthol. Very nice empty glass, fruity and woody. The aromas in this rum are a little surprising, but personally I like them because they remain dynamic and tasty.

Bitteres Plastik, etwas Frucht, Alkohol ist schlecht eingebunden. Wer die andere, ältere tolle Fiji Abfüllungen von Rum Artesanal kennt oder auch die früheren TRC Abfüllungen, erkennt hier eine schwachen Abklatsch. Fazit: Eher nicht.

Incredible, but not in a positive sense.... Personally, I find the thing undrinkable and would never fill something like that! So a blatant note of Genever, which I was almost sick...and the Fiji DNA can completely move into the background. Low point of RA bottlings for me😢

RumX Fidji 2001 Cross Tasting: Definitely an outliner from the pack. This bottling again shows intense herbal notes which have seamingly appeared in some of the more recent RA bottlings. At the start this is a bit overwhelming to the base profile. With some time to breath this addition blends in more nicely and makes this more of a standout than an outlier in a negative sense. All in all this is interesting enough to make it to the middle of the tasted range - mind you the profile is somewhat skewed towards herbal notes. Cheers to Jabok!

Nicht der Burner, wie der Erste, aber nach den eher enttäuschten Bewertungen, bin ich positiv überrascht. Angenehm Sippen😅

RumX Fiji Crosstasting April 2024 Platz 6/8 Aussergewöhnlicher Fiji 2001, welcher durch seine herbalen Noten deutlich hervorsticht. Beim Blindtasting kontrovers diskutiert. Mir hat er gefallen. Nase speziell mit etwas Harz.

Edit: Thanks Jakob, I had the pleasure of tasting a wide range of the Fiji 2001 bottlings. Although I've had a few in my glass before, the result surprised me again, as my previous favorite ended up in last place. However, it has to be said that I didn't give most of them time to develop due to a time problem. So here is the result of the blind tasting, which differs from the scoring. Tested against RX14277. I think it has the more typical Fiji profile, but I find it too unbalanced and the alcohol not well integrated.
