Pabst & Richarz Paul & Virginie Eden Gold bottle

Pabst & Richarz Paul & Virginie Eden Gold

Don't come to this expecting a dry, spirit-forward rum — it drinks like dessert. The nose is all pralines and candied fruit, and on the palate the sweetness turns the body thick and almost oily. One member sums it up as a dessert rum or high-proof liqueur, and that's fair. At 40% it's soft and round, with vanilla and a touch of licorice. A few taste a fruity-brandy edge they didn't love.

  • Praline-sweet nose

How does Pabst & Richarz Paul & Virginie Eden Gold taste?

Summarized by AI from 13 community reviews.

Very sweet, dessert-leaning soft sipper Most land on the same verdict: pleasant and well-rounded but simply too sweet, edging into liqueur territory. Better in cola than sipped neat, a couple of members suggest.

sweet-tooth beginners wanting a soft after-dinner pour

Unfortunately, you have to say it's a dessert rum or a high-proof liqueur. Smells like pralines and other sweets. On the palate so sweet that the rum becomes thick and oily. No edges or corners, but a round overall impression in a way and unfortunately too sweet.

The Eden Blue was definitely better. The Eden Gold somehow only tastes of alcohol. I think it has a fruit brandy taste. Doesn't really suit my taste. It's probably best drunk with cola.
