    How does this rum taste?

    Kong Ron is a uniquely crafted Guatemalan rum from the Kong Spirit distillery, distilled from molasses using a column still. With an alcohol by volume (ABV) of 40%, this rum presents intriguing aromatic notes of eucalyptus, fresh floral, and milk chocolate influences. The sophisticated taste profile includes stapled eucalyptus tones, enriched by refreshing floral, vegetal, and minty nuances. Many users find its composition comparable to aspects of a floral gin, making it an intriguing choice for those interested in herbal-like spirits. However, its complexity and distinct flavor atoms might not be universally appreciated. A vibrant and bold character, it provides an unusual tasting experience with an earthy finishing touch.

    Dry, unsweetened spiced rum with a charity character for gorillas. But somehow it only smells fresh like eucalyptus 🤣 I don't really understand why it has to cost €80... I can also make a eucalyptus infusion myself😅

    You either like it or you don't.Powerful and complex rum in the mouth Nice lengthBeautiful story about the conception of the rumOutstanding design

    It's a very confusing piece which for me is closer to gin. I smell a lot of juniper and herbs. In taste a hint of cream otherwise sharper and sharper
