Viel Karamell und Toffee, holzgeprägt und Kakao

Überdurchschnittlich als Mixer
RumX community voice

A mild, wood-forward rum with notable toffee and chocolate notes, but a bit one-dimensional and faint at 40%. One to try if you enjoy easy-drinking Spanish-style spirits.

    How does this rum taste?

    Casa Barú Pure Single Rum leans on notes of toffee, milk chocolate, wood, and the faintest cocoa. RumX users often point to its 'viel Karamell und Toffee, holzgeprägt und Kakao' (@primus), with others noticing the rum as 'kräfiger Fasseinschlag' (@Tim) rather than fruit-driven. The mouthfeel is mild, and while 'verhältnismäßig trocken' (@crazyforgoodbooze), the lack of higher ABV leaves some wanting. As a mixer, it finds more love than when sipped neat.

    First of all, many thanks to crazyforgoodbooze for providing the bottles free of charge. As for the rum itself, I have to say that it's not really a winner when tasted neat, although as a mixer it delivers above average in my opinion. Unfortunately reduced to 40%, with a little more oomph it might have been more.

    Ja, wir sind beim Flagschiff Rum angekommen. Und ich erkenne hier tatsächlich einen Rum. Leicht gesüßt, typischer Lateinamerikanischer Art eines Rums. Nichts was man getrunken haben muss. In der Cola sicher nett.

    Hmm… irgendwie kann ich hiermit nicht so wirklich was anfangen.. am Gaumen habe ich so einen leicht muffigen Geschmack, wie feuchter alter Karton. Und das ist nicht wirklich aromatisch. Der Rest ist okay, mehr aber auch nicht

    Macht die Nase hier noch Spaß ist mit der Verdünnung am Gaumen einfach Schluss mit lustig. Gute Ansätze sind da. Schöne Kaffeenote. Dazu etwas Tabak. Am Gaumen mehr in Richtung Kakao. Das kann man trinken aber es ist schnell vergessen
