How does this rum taste?
The Dead Reckoning Rum from Australia, crafted by Killik distillery in 2023, is piquing the interest of rum enthusiasts. This unaged, high-ester pot still rum offers a unique aromatic profile featuring notes of vanilla and plum, with a creamy, fruity palate marked by subtle ester nuances. Its 55% ABV is well integrated, delivering a surprisingly smooth sipping experience. Although labeled as a "high ester funky rum," users find the funkiness more restrained. This limited release of just 355 bottles is enjoyed in cocktails, like a Daiquiri, and stands as an intriguing example of Australian craftsmanship.

Extremely cool distillate. Noses like cheap vanilla cake icing, and the body follows through. Really bizarre stuff in a good way.

Good funky unaged white. The nose is subtle, not some funky beast. Mouth is creamy and smooth, strawberry and cream with some fruity elements. The finish is short, some esters but light weight again, more vanilla and strawberry but short. Was hoping for more but it sips well for an unaged white, look forward to trying more from the distillery and taking it for a ride in a daiquiri
