It’s pretty smooth but it has some faint flavors, It says some spices actually used. Not much in terms of barrel etc. Slightly sweet but nothing close to a liqueur.
Not sure why the low scores. It’s fine

I enjoy this representation from Thailand! Yes, it has a very different taste than many of us are accustomed to, but that is what separates rum from one country to the next. Distilled from sugarcane and rice with herbs and spices indigenous of that region creates a nice combination of flavor albeit with a subdued 35% alcohol by volume. I have not tried Mekhong other than by itself as I feel that the distinct flavors and aroma would be sacrificed by adding soda.

The taste is a bit like the smell entering an asian supermarket. Definitely something different. Can like it or hate it. I enjoy it, but it will not become a regular buy.

I wont open this Thai Rum, since i have bought it for my collection only.
Its cheap, but hard to find in my country, thats the reason for not opening.

What I have been told, should it be good with cola, so i go with that.

Hints of vanilla which I don’t hate. Just didn’t go down that easily. Not bad though. Could certainly be worse.

Sattes Bernstein im Glas.
In der Nase ein wenig wie beim Medizinmann. Da liegen sackweise Gewürze in einem niedrigen, dunklen, feuchtem Raum. Currykraut, Liebstöckel, Oregano liegen in den oberen Säcken.
Am Gaumen seht weich, geschmeidig und süsslich. Karamell im Kräutermantel in Vanillesauce getunkt.
Im Abgang schnell vorbei, doch die Kräuter bleiben länger.
Legale thailändische Partydroge, mehr nicht.

Rich amber in the glass.
In the nose a little bit like the medicine man. There are bags of spices in a low, dark, damp room. Curry herb, lovage, oregano are in the upper bags.
On the palate it looks soft, smooth and sweetish. Caramel in herb coating dipped in vanilla sauce.
In the finish it passes quickly, but the herbs stay longer.
Legal Thai party drug, nothing more.

It's labelled a whiskey but it's sweet and more like a spiced rum. Quite Unique for what it is. Similar but not as good as Sangsom. Goes well with Coke, Sprite or Soda. Worth trying for something different!

Tonight's Rum: Mekhong from Thailand. On the nose, it smacks of almonds and slightly herbal. It's nice and welcoming. On the pallet, it continues with the almond but adds a bit of sour fruit, not exactly what you expect. Perhaps even bitter and without sweetness. On the throat, it's clean and disappears as you swallow, no burn. It finishes with a nutty flavor and bitter flavor. Not a favorite, 4 out of 10. Perhaps a bit better as a mixer with a sweet juice like mango.

A bit better in taste then the sangsom. But like I rated the sangsom it's more of an nostalgian rum for me. Drink it with pepsi in Thailand on a beach then it tastes good. Do not drink it straight, tastes like petroleum.
