Naga Malacca
Most enjoy the intense mandarin-kumquat sweetness in mixed drinks. Critics say it’s more kumquat liqueur than rum: very sweet, light, and one-dimensional. Consensus: fun, candied, but niche.
Sweet-toothed newcomers and cocktail fans who like very fruity, mandarin–kumquat driven spiced rums for tiki drinks or longdrinks rather than neat sipping.

Nr. 8 für heute, na ja, eigentlich wären wir jetzt auf dem Heimweg aus Witten :-(. Bitter. Dieser Rum ist überwiegend fruchtig, vor allem tropische Früchte sind erkennbar. In der Nase außerdem sehr alkoholisch.
Ein spices Rum. Aber einer der Besseren. Ich trinke ihn gerne. Besonders gut macht er sich in fruchtigen Cocktails wie Pina Colada. Wer allerdings keinen Spiced Rum mag, sollte die Finger davon lassen.
there's not much for me to say, it's not rum but a spiced flavored with kumquats. of course, the fruit is very present and takes up all the space, as do oranges and mandarins. But there's nothing else! it's light, watery, sweet, a bit meaningless. I'm really not a fan of spiced, either too sweet or completely ghostly! It's just right to get beginners started.
Für das, was es ist gehts klar. Leider nicht so mein Fall
