Deadhead Dark Chocolate

Very sweet with almost no feeling of alcohol, notes of cocoa, vanilla and coffee

Gennemtrængende duft af vanilje. Nærmest som at stikke næsen i en bøtte med vaniljesukker. Smagen er også gennemtrængende af vanilje, men også chokolade. Jeg har smagt den to gange, og første gang var chokoladen meget dominerende, men anden gang var det mere som lidt mælkechokolade. Med sine 35% er det en mere end likør. (10.

Fudge, vanilj och choklad. Både smak och doft. Som godis. Känns mer som en likör än en rom.
Får lite Kahlua vibbar.

Got a sample of this from RR Tasting Club, but I must say that this is nothing I can recommend if you’re looking for rum.
It’s more a liquor than a rum. I’m quite sure it works if you’re looking for a sweet liquor to your coffee.
They call it dark chocolate, but it’s the vanilla that’s dominates together with the sweetness. In the end there’s some hints of dark chocolate.

This is truly an amazing rum. The flavor is distinct, unique, smooth and with no heat. This would be fantastic as a desert rum after a really nice meal. This is something for anyone one that enjoys chocolate. Not overpowering, just the right amount of flavor. Try this and enjoy.

I am not impressed, taste is weak, too much chocolate, I do not like smell of this rum

It's easy to drink, the chocolate flavor is not so annoying as I expected

Aroma is full of butterscotch and cocoa.
Taste overriden by chocolote and there is sadly no hint of rum and this makes this just a chocolate liquer.
Even as a mixer this is not a good choice.

Given the name you kinda know what your getting into with this bottle. In general i’m more of a purits, apriciating additive free honest rum but it can still be fun to try some of all the wierd ofsprings out there once in a while. I must admit, beeing slightly positively surprised with this one.
The nose is extremely perfumed with notes of chocolate, caramel candy, cream, vanilla and cough syrup. The depth of the syrup note raises the bar a bit. It’s gentle in the mouth (35% vol) with notes of coffee, chocolate, caramel and vanilla. This is a funny pour, but not much more than that. Could be used with a desert. One was enough for me.
