This is ethanol with caramel. They can call it rum because Austria was in the EU before the food and drink labelling rules came in. Czech Republic and Slovakia have similar products, but now can't call them rum, so use names like 'um' (common sense) or 'tuzemak' (the domestic one). Anyway, nobody but nobody drinks this straight. You put it in tea or coffee. I suppose you could mix it with coke, like the Thais do with their 80% not-quite-rums.

The ultimate rum to carry in a hipflask on a night out - and secretly upgrade a plain coke into a rum-and-coke. Strong flavour and ditto alcohol, not for drinking neat, but definitely recommended for cooking.

Only if you are real drinkers you can manage to feel the wonderful taste of this rum.
it is not true that you do not hear that it is a rum if I didn't known that it is Austrian I would not believe

Great mixer when used sparingly. Obviously you can't drink this straight-out.

Nice taste, but 80% is quite much. It is perfect for adding into the christmas Candy.

I debated whether this deserved a 1 or a 2. It's terrible. There's no doubt about that. But, if you expect that, and it meets your expectations, does it still deserve a 1?
Yeah, I think so.
This is on the short list of undrinkable "rums". (There's still debate over whether this is actually a true rum).
It smells strong.
It tastes stronger.
I try all rums neat before with ice or mixing. This, neat, is like drinking turpentine. Simply horrible.
Mixed, the taste is still overpowering. It's 80%, so it's still going to shine in regular measurements. But even mixing at half strength, you cannot get over that horrible taste.

If you want to mess someone up, give them this. But there are *far* better overproof rums, that are actually tasty.

All the people who rated it lower than 4 donโ€™t know that this rum is not intended for sipping or mixing. This is a rum you need to have because it works pretty well in pastry and for keeping your sugar syrup fresh.

This is the only rum I have spit instantly into a Kleenex as going to the sink would be too far. And I was in the kitchen.

Tastes like sore or strep throat spray medicine. Absolutely junk. Would rate it with a minus if possible. It makes the Brugal I rated a 5 seem like a 99.

Absolute garbage. Do not buy. Stay away. Cannot find any redeeming qualities.
