    How does this rum taste?

    • Vanilla gives sweetness but otherwise fairly dry taste
    • Les arômes du rum restent sur une seule trame
    • Bon rum pour un débutant

    Zaka Trinidad leans on a trio of woody, vanilla, and light citrus notes, with a recurrent thread of honeyed sweetness throughout the tasting. RumX voices often point out its easygoing nature—'a rum I pour when I want to drink well without analyzing too much😉' (Claes Nilsson)—and its focus on oak and vanilla from nose to finish. Opinions are divided about its depth: some find 'a fairly dry taste, a little peppery' (Claes Nilsson), others say it's 'nothing in it is dominant and extra' (Dos Marios Kristos), but most agree it's easy enough for newcomers, with little added sugar or color. Expect a straightforward sip, with not much deviation from the core profile.

    "Almost boozy but mostly oak and vanilla on the nose. The vanilla gives sweetness but otherwise a fairly dry taste, a little peppery. Fairly short finish. 42% feels a bit low, would probably lift with 50+%. 7.3 out of 10. A rum I pour when I want to drink well without analyzing too much😉"

    "C'est très plat et le produit est presque trop fort en alcool en bouche malgré son faible titrage."

    "Alcoholic 👃, nothing special to be found. No fruit, just a little bit of oak and vanilla somewhere in the distance. 👅 offers again alcohol very badly integrated, slight sweetness of oak barrel so vanilla, and maybe cocoa beans at the very far spectrum. Not a fan."
