    How does this rum taste?

    • Strong coconut flavor
    • Great for cocktails
    • Natural coconut essence

    Takamaka Coco Rum from Seychelles offers a distinctive coconut-forward profile with a sweet, vanilla undertone. Distilled at the Trois Frères Distillery using a blend of pot and column stills, this 25% ABV rum is crafted more like a liqueur. Ideal for cocktail enthusiasts, it shines in tropical mixes like Piña Coladas, although it leans towards a sweet, syrupy taste. Users enjoy its natural coconut essence but note its artificial sweetness and low alcohol content. Perfect for summer drinks, Takamaka Coco Rum adds a unique flair to mixers, resembling a higher-quality alternative to Malibu. While some criticize its overly sugary palate, many appreciate its role as a versatile cocktail base.

    "Extrem süß, fast schon seifig und sirup-artig und eher künstlich wirkend. Hat was von Bounty Kokos Riegeln und dazu auch noch leicht sprittig... Da gibt's deutlich bessere Vertreter von Kokos Rum meiner Meinung nach!"

    "A 25%, on le qualifierait plutôt comme une liqueur de noix de coco. A utiliser exclusivement pour des cocktails long-drinks (type Pina colada ou autre ...), très sucré avec un léger goût de vanille mais très bon au final."

    "Ein Besuch der Takamaka-Destillerie lohnt sich! Während der Pandemie hat sich die Destillerie neben ihrer qualitativ hochwertigerem Pot-Still aus frischem Zuckerrohrsaft von den Seychellen in sehr kleinen Mengen ein zweites Standbein durch eine dreifach Column-Still aufgebaut, die mit Melasse aus dem Ausland (Mauritius) arbeitet. Damit kann kontinuierlich in großen Mengen produziert werden, wobei hiermit das Cocktail- and Anfängersegment bedient wird. Durch die dreifache Destillation entsteht ein sehr neutraler Rum, der im Nachgang mit Aromen (z.B Fruchtessenzen, Zimt, Vanille, manchmal auch mit Farbstoff und Zucker) versetzt wird. Dieser Rumlikör ist etwas besser als die Ananasvariante. Das neue Segment hilft der Destillerie finanziell, aber ein Qualitätsrum entsteht dabei nicht."
