    First time for me to try a rum from Thailand. I love it even though it is a rum of mystery. Nice sweet notes of honey and sweet spices.

    Ich dachte mir so - 60 Geld für was, das sich richtig interessant anhört, auch wenn ich bis jetz noch nix aus Thailand hatte, was mich so richtig vom Hocker gehauen hat - aber die haben mir gesagt, der hat viel, von nem Panama-Rum und ich mag Panama und das finde ich, trifft hier auch krass zu. Die Nase is spannend hier hat man erst mal ganz viel karamell und dann kommt noch sowas zwischem verbranntem Zucker und verbranntem Gummi durch. Am Gaumen macht er sich auch wunderschön, auch noch Vanille,Zabak und ein bisschen fruchtigkeit kommen dazu. Der Abgang ist eher kurz. Wenn ich Alkohol pur trinke, habe ich am liebsten was spannendes, komplexes, mit dem ich mich ewig beschäftigen kann, aber den sippe ich auch so trotzdem gerne. Der ist lecker, vor allem für den Preis.

    Interesting column stil. Flavorful with surprisingly intense impact from the barrel. Can hold up to the more interesting columns out there imo.

    Not bad at all, not to say: pleasant surprise. As Andi wrote here, the rum has a very present Panamá impression, you think you have a Spanish-style rum in front of you. If you like the style, you can make a relaxing evening with this Easy Sipper. Why not a kind of "style imitation" at a very good PLV and successfully integrated alcohol?I assume that Thai aged rum is on the rise and we can still expect a lot from the country.
