Romdeluxe Poisson Guadeloupe (Pueblo del Ron Nürnberg 2024) 2018
Opinions really diverge here, and it's mostly about the finish. Several tasters find the sherry cask smothers the Guadeloupe agricole underneath — heavy sherry on nose and palate, grassy-vegetal notes fighting a sharp, not-fully-integrated 63% alcohol. Fans who chew through it reach a fresh, cherry-and-wood fruitiness with herbal edges. A few drops of water help the agricole breathe. Bitter French oak on the dry finish divides people hard.
The community says- Fresh fruity nose
- Grassy agricole core
- Dominant sherry finish

The look inside the bottle
How does Romdeluxe Poisson Guadeloupe (Pueblo del Ron Nürnberg 2024) 2018 taste?
Aggregated from 26 community reviews.
Sherry-finished agricole, hot and polarizing Genuinely split. Many feel the oloroso finish buries the agricole and the alcohol runs sharp; others chew through to a grassy, cherry-fruited character they enjoy. Very specific.

#4648 02.03.2024 Whiskymessen This one is going to split waters because of the finish and I'm looking forward to seeing the scores 😊 Nose Intense, wood, light roasted, fruity, light caramel, cherry. Palate Intense, wood, light roasted, sherry, fruity, light herbs. Finish Long, wood, sherry, dried fruit, light herbs. A different finish if the distillery edition 2. It has more punch in the profile and slightly more edges..
Review by Thunderbird
Zunächst einmal erneut: Großen Dank an Jörg (Zabo) für den Split und die Flasche 🙏🏻. Der sogenannte 2. Spalter ist im Glas. Ja, die Sherry-Note ist durchgängig vorhanden, aber: im Gegensatz zu den Hampden-Sherry-Finishes empfinde ich es hier nicht störend. Die pflanzlich-grasigen Aromen (die auch durchgängig vorhanden sind) harmonieren hier meines Erachtens recht gut, wenn auch er mir ein wenig zu süß erscheint (was nicht so mein Ding ist). Der Alkohol ist gut eingebunden. Fazit: ich kann gut verstehen, wenn einige ihn gar nicht mögen. Er ist schon sehr speziell. Für mich passt es
Review by Christian Rudt
Pere labat with the typical green, grisly note comes through well on the nose. With a little time, the sherry cask influence becomes stronger and is also clearly present on the palate. However, this fits together relatively well and results in an easily drinkable agricole with plenty of power.
Review by Schnubbi
Dieser Guadeloupe mit Oloroso-Finish tritt heute an gegen seinen Bruder RX18758 aus dem Cognac und Madeira-Fass. An der Nase noch recht verhalten. Am Gaumen dann vordergründig das Oloroso-Finish und etwas scharf der Alkohol, dahinter dann die Agricole DNA. In Reinform zeigt er sich auch am Gaumen etwas verhalten, ein wenig Wasser hilft ihm auf die Beine und sich zu entfalten. Trotzdem kommt er für mich nicht gegen seinen großen Bruder RX18758 an, dafür ist er für meinen Geschmack einfach nicht rund und vielschichtig genug. Bei letzterem harmonieren für meinen Geschmack der (kräftige) Fasseinfluss und die Agricole-DNA einfach noch ein gutes Stück besser.
Review by ...and a bottle of Rum.
So heftig wie manch anderer finde ich den Finish-Einschlag gar nicht. Nase erinnert sehr an den 59er mit einem Mü mehr Richtung rote Früchte. Am Gaumen auch grasig-fleischig wie der weiße Bruder mit der zusätzlichen Fruchtnote aber auch etwas Muffigkeit aus dem Finish. Der Alkohol wirkt bei ~3% mehr komischerweise kratziger als vom ungelagerten Pendant.
Review by DomM
Intense and intriguing on the nose. On the palate, however, the Olorosso finish is much too intense and dominating for my personal liking. While the profile of the Poisson is detectable on the nose, unfortunately, on the palate it is quite blurred due to the finish.
Review by Lukas Jäger
Was genau ist das? Pflanzlich-grün, irgendwie modrig in der Nase und scharf am Gaumen, allerdings nicht oder nicht nur vom Alkohol. Der Sherry-Einfluss ist zwar nicht süß-dominant, wie man das sonst kennt, aber mir gefällt es irgendwie trotzdem nicht. Insgesamt gefallen mir die Melasse-Rums aus Guadeloupe einfach besser!
Review by zabo
Verkostet auf der Pueblo del Ron Nürnberg 2024. So nett die Jungs von Romdeluxe auch sind, aber hier muss ich genauso sagen, wie bereits schon bei ihrer Distillery Edition aus Guadeloupe, das war wohl nix. Auch hier ist mir das Finish viel zu dominant. Sorry. Edit: Nochmal daheim in Ruhe verkostet, werde überhaupt nicht mit ihm warm. Einen kleinen Ticken besser als die Distillery Edition, viel aber nicht. Edit: der ultimative CubaLibre Test. Es ist echt erstaunlich auch hier sticht das Finish komplett durch. Also definitiv auch nicht für mich als Mixer geeignet
Review by Alex1981
On the nose: heavy sherry, not much else. On the palate: heavy sherry, grassy vegetal notes, imbalanced alcohol. On the finish: heavy sherry, grass, alcohol. No idea who got the idea of this sherry finish, but this is not working. At all.
