Union 55 Salted & Spiced

Good rum but the sea salt flavour needs some time to get used to.

Rum tasting in Amsterdam started with Union 55 Salted and Spiced Rum. Nice and unique bottle and label design. Light golden color. Unique salty taste straight away mixed with caramel to your nose and palate when neat sipped. Sweet and short burn at the end. Definitely a unique rum hailing from the Netherlands.

Lip smacking sea salt with caramel afterburner. Like a Red headed left-gander, unorthodox but acceptable 😉

I got this rum in my monthly subscription box and I was not disappointed. It is unusual to have sweet and salted but its really good. Straight up you get the hit on salt on your lips instantly and as you drink it the warm caramel sweetness warms your throat. I found that with ginger beer this is an epic mix. Highly recommended

Overly sweet and spiced rum that would disgust the toughest palates. Thank you but no thank you.

The salt really comes through, its a very unique tasting rum. Only tried straight up, but I also imagine the salt taste would compliment a sweet mixer too
