Aroma visualization from community tastings
Capulet & Montague Brands GmbH Bonpland Rouge VSOP
Members mostly land on the same word: average. The nose gets real love — spice, coffee, mocha, even a bit of chocolate and honey — but almost everyone says the palate can't follow. It turns thin and watery, and the red-wine cask only shows faintly in the finish. A drinkable, easygoing pour that leaves the good part in the glass unfulfilled.
The community says- Coffee-mocha nose
- Thin, watery body
- Weak on palate

The look inside the bottle
How does Capulet & Montague Brands GmbH Bonpland Rouge VSOP taste?
Aggregated from 12 community reviews.
Nice nose, thin palate — an average sipper Recurring verdict: promising nose, thin palate. Several tasters call it the definition of an average rum — fine to drink, but the red-wine finish barely registers.

Review by Daniel
Gefällt an der Nase mit auffälliger Intensität. Leider kann er dieses Niveau im Geschmack nicht halten. Den Einfluss des Rotweinfasses merkt man vor allem im Abgang, wenn auch dünn ausgeprägt
Review by Timo Groeger
Für mich der Inbegriff eines Durchschnittrums. Hat eine leichte Süsse, geht dann geschmacklich in Richtung Kaffee und Mokka. Ich mag diese Kaffeerösterei ja. Von daher ein solider Rum, kann man nix mit falsch machen.
Review by Michael Ihmels 🇩🇪
In der Nase leicht würzig. Und meiner Meinung mach ein wenig nach Kräuter und eine leichte Kaffeenote. Im Geschmack sehr durchschnittlich. Man kann ihn trinken aber auch wirklich nichts besonderes. In Ordnung
Review by Pavel Peknica
Nezajímavý, lehce kořeněný. Tuctový, lehce alkoholový
Review by Schnapsschuesse
Recht spannende Nase die unerwarteterweise wenig Rotwein hat. Dafür mischen sich zu den recht fruchtigen Grundtönen röstige Aromen bis hin zu Schokolade und Kaffee. Honigartige Süße. Kann er im Geschmack dann leider nicht halten und wirkt äußerst dünn. Fühlt sich gar an wie ein Rotwein, wobei das Aroma davon nur im Abgang wirklich durchkommt. Die vielversprechende Nase bleibt leider fast komplett aus. Schade, hier ist irgendwo - sicherlich unbeabsichtigt - wirklich Potential verloren gegangen. Waren wohl auf sehr junge Rums im Blend.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Preis Leistung ist echt miserabel, Rotwein Finish entweder nicht bemerkbar oder hat den Rum kaputt gemacht. sehr flach und lasch und dünn und verwässert... schade.
