How does this rum taste?
- Well suited for mixers
- Vanilla, cloves, cinnamon and saffron
- Winter spicy elements such as cinnamon
Dead Man’s Fingers Spiced Rum draws plenty of comments for its sweet, spicy nose—full of vanilla, cloves, cinnamon, and wintery hints. 'Artificially sweet full of winter spicy elements' stands out for rum_sk, while Stevie Slick Probert found 'vanilla, cloves, cinnamon and saffron.' Some catch orange and fruit-gum notes, while others lean woodier or even slightly coffee-like. Repeatedly pegged as a mixer rather than a neat sipper, with a 'medium finish.'

"06.2024 First impression: Chewing gum? Nose: synthetic, fruit chewing gum, orange Palate: sweet, orange, nutmeg, spices, unimpressive Finish: dry, medium length Overall impression: the nose promises more than the palate can deliver. I wouldn't even want to mess up a mixer with this, rating lowered from originally 6.0 to 5.5 2023 For €21, you get a strongly flavored and sweetened mixer that doesn't have much of a rum flavor because of the intense chewing gum aroma. Otherwise a drinkable party spirit."
"Unfortunately, this spiced rum is not my taste at all. In the nose rather spices, vanilla and caramel. The taste is a mixture of cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger. But very artificial and alcohol not well integrated"
"Only bought it at the time because of the cool glass that came with it. It took me ages to use it only as a mixer. I couldn't use it on its own. As with many others that I try out as a mixer for guests from time to time, it is also far too sweet. The artificial taste is like a slap in the face like most spirit drinks."
"Cool name and design, but that's about it. Unfortunately, to be an eye-catcher on the shelf, it also has to be drunk. It tastes artificially sweet on its own and the fruity note is also a disaster. Spiced rums are not my cup of tea and this has manifested itself with this flop. Just a 5 because it is suitable for mixing."
