Samai Kampot Pepper
Most love its bold Kampot pepper and honey combo; critics find it far too sweet and one-dimensional. Consensus: a polarizing pepper-spiced rum, better as a quirky mixer than a serious sipper.
Flavor hunters and cocktail enthusiasts who enjoy sweet, spiced spirits with a strong pepper kick and don’t mind the rum character taking a back seat.

How does this rum taste?
Sweet, pepper-bomb spiced rum
If you enjoy sweet spiced rums or pepper-infused spirits, this will feel like a fun twist; if you want clean, classic molasses rum, it’ll probably miss the mark.
Traditional rum fans, anyone avoiding added sweetness, and drinkers who dislike dominant pepper or expect a balanced, all-evening sipper.
This is just terrible. I smell and taste only pepper, nothing else. If the label wouldn't state that it is rum based, I wouldn't believe it.

Very nice sample of the 24 days of rum, and surprising as well. It is very fruity, full of currants, 🍋, 🍊, and as expected peppery but balanced with sweetness. It also has a bittery side to it, where orange and lemon peels come to the front but overall a great sample with only 1 problematic area. Aftertaste which is too short.
8.4.2025 Casa Havana Praha voni docela svěže, je cítit luční med a koření, nějaké bylinky barvu má jak čaj Chuť je famózní - hutná, mírně medová, po polknuti šimrá na jazyku a velmi dlouho je cítit ten speciální kambodžský pepř
