How does this rum taste?

  • Vibrant spice profile
  • Great in cocktails
  • Winter festive feel

500 Cuts Hand Made Spiced Rum, crafted by Brewdog Distilling Co. in the UK, offers a vibrant blend of cinnamon, orange, and clove aromas. Tasting notes highlight cinnamon, sweet honey, and wintry orange peel flavors, making it reminiscent of festive gatherings. Predominantly praised for its aromatic spice explosion, it is often described as a blend for the cooler months or creative cocktails. While some find the spice appealing for mixed drinks, others feel overwhelmed by the artificial-tasting cinnamon, comparable to Don Papa's style. Its base rum is masked by the potent spices, prompting mixed opinions on consumption neat. This rum is a distinctive option for those exploring spiced variants, especially during winter festivities.

"Very tasty spiced rum. Aromatic in the direction of Falernum. But less sweet"

"Oh well, I was really looking forward to this rum based on the reviews. But unfortunately it didn't live up to my expectations. It tastes too much like Christmas and orange for me. Unfortunately worse than expected."

"Similar to Don Papa, for example, this spiced rum only tastes like artificial flavorings, not a bit like rum. I can't drink it neat. I mixed a tiny cable car with the rest of the sample, also disgusting."
