    How does this rum taste?

    The Dominican Republic 474 Esters is an unaged, high-proof rum bottled by Romdeluxe. Distilled from molasses using a column still, it boasts an extraordinarily high ABV of 93%. Users describe potent aromas of glue, solvents, and alcohol, with undertones of citrus. On tasting, the profile reveals intense glue-like and synthetic flavors, accompanied by alcoholic and solvent notes, with hints of lemon. Although some find its extreme potency surprisingly drinkable, most agree that its overwhelming characteristics make it better suited as a mixer or industrial cleaner than as a sipping rum. This unique expression generates strong reactions for its unprecedented intensity and unconventional profile, marking it as a niche choice for adventurous rum enthusiasts.

    I expected it to be undrinkable, but I wouldn't call it 93%. I mean, yeah, it tastes like I've put rubbing alcohol on my tongue, but it's sweet and nice.

    Brutal. Extrem.

    You really don't expect this to be drinkable. Surprisingly mild and fruity! In particular, I wouldn't have expected to find any big flavors at all at 93% and Dom rep rum, but you can actually recognize some apple, mint and citrus here. Chapeau 😂 but nobody needs it and I think €80 is exorbitantly overpriced for a white rum at distillation strength....

    Wow. Patex in liquid form.
