    How does this rum taste?

    Blackforest Wild Rum from Germany, crafted by Brennerei & Weingut Wild and bottled by Franz Wild GbR, stands out for its intense vanilla, sweet, and citrus notes. Users note its spiced profile dominated by vanilla, honey, and caramel. While praised for its sweet toffee and orange peel aromas, some find its vanilla-forward taste more reminiscent of a 'spirit drink' than a traditional rum. Its sweetness is likened to toffee and syrup, creating a unique but divisive flavor profile. This rum was distilled from Uruguayan molasses, adding an intriguing layer to its German craftsmanship.

    "Jetzt wird es wild. Ein Spiced Rum von der Destillerie Wild. Wenn es kocht auf der Flasche stehen würde, dann hätte ichvhier nicht die Basis als Rum erkannt. Sehr stark mit Vanille versetzt. Einige Gewürze, aber nicht wirklich definierbar und irgendwas mit Zitrone. Eher ein Likörchen."

    "Das ist mal „interessant“. Ein Rum, der so arg gespiced ist, dass ich ihn vielleicht gar nicht mehr als Rum erkannt hatte. Vanille, Vanille und nochmal Vanille. Dazwischen eine Spur von Orange und alles, was süß ist. Karamell, Honig, Toffee und Sirup. Wer ihn mag, soll ihn trinken, ich werd kein Fan davon. Nur bitte nicht sagen, das sei in irgendeiner Form noch Rum."

    "if you hat given me this blind and said it was a vanilla liqueur I would have not doubt that for a second. this is at the best and mediocre spirit drink but calling it rum on the front label is as insulting to rum as it is misleading. I doubt they even distilled it themselves it would work as a vanilla pudding spirit drink. therefore still a good rating. as a "rum" it is plainly bad..."
