How does this rum taste?
Takamaka Overproof Rum leans heavily on fresh citrus, with lemon and lime at the forefront, often described as "fruity, citrus-laden" by RumX drinkers. The high ABV makes itself known, especially on the nose—"doch etwas alkoholisch in der Nase" (@Timo Groeger)—but those who give it time pick up floral undertones and litchi. Peppery spice and sugarcane round out the palate. "Once well-aired, there’s fruit, a bit of pepper, and some litchi" (@TheJackDrop), making it a white overproof with more nuance than just pure punch.

"Excellent takamaka, frankly, once it's well aerated, there's fruit, a little pepper and a hint of lychee. To sum up, my tasting notes: Nose: Alcoholic In the mouth: Fruity, Candied, Lychee, Peppery". For me, it's underrated!
A pretty elegant white rum for a 69%er. A bit of licorice/aniseed in taste. Rice wine. Not overly complex. A bit closed. But very drinkable.
Also für den Preis kann man nicht wirklich meckern. Aufgrund des ABV doch etwas alkoholisch in der Nase. Zitrusfrüchte sind auch erkennbar, außerdem leicht floral. Am Gaumen auch Zitrusfruchtlastig, außerdem etwas Zuckerrohr und Gras.
A good price-performance ratio. Too strong and somehow spicy on its own, so only a close 7. The fruity, citrusy aroma and taste predominate. Very tasty as a ti-punch. Can be recommended without hesitation as a starter.
