How does this rum taste?

The Rhum Cambodia (Flag Series) offers exotic fruit, vanilla, and wood notes with a touch of bitterness. It evokes Jamaican vibes and Worthy Park comparisons but lacks depth. Promising yet divisive, better as a mixer than sipping neat.

“Interesting and of decent quality. Gives me some Fidji vibes with some dirty/plant-y notes on the nose and palate. Quite some sweetness and vanilla notes from the cask. Finish is a bit to woody/bitter to fully satisfy. Interesting profile nevertheless! Edit after some oxidation: evolved nicely, smoothing out the profile. Gives associations to the 2000 WIRD „Rockley“s, yet a bit more nasty. Same verdict: interesting profile!”

“Cambodia ... somehow artificial the whole thing, with wood, spice and some caramel... I had expected much more. The alcohol is also not so well integrated. I suspect that it will be some time before this rum is ready to be drunk by the general public”

“Ja. Schnaps. Als mixer vielleicht brauchbar. Pur nicht empfehlenswert. Stinkt nach Bahnhofspenner. Nettes Label und Lmdw Zugehörigkeit retten da auch nix.”
