Château du Breuil Pathum Thani Rum Explorer Thailand
Opinion lands right in the middle on this Thai column-still rum. The nose usually wins people over with tropical vanilla, honey and coconut husk, but the palate flips: several tasters find it turns woody, peppery and quickly alcoholic, with a short finish. A few call it "not very special, not much taste," while others enjoy the oak-and-vanilla warmth and compare it loosely to Antilles rums.
The community says- Vanilla-coconut nose
- Keep in mind: Alcoholic on palate

How does Château du Breuil Pathum Thani Rum Explorer Thailand taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Nice nose, woody and hot palate A pleasant nose that doesn't fully deliver on the palate. Most find it woody, spicy and a touch hot for 42%, with a short finish. Fine, not exciting.

The nose is full of tropical vanilla and coconut husk. Behind this there's modelling glue and candied fruit peel. The palate was lots of coconut and oak with vanilla, nutmeg and raisins towards the back. The finish is short. Red fruits with the raisins and oak from the palate. Overall, a nice rum. Similar to other Thai rums I've tried. Akin to Mount Gay Black Barrel in profile.

24 Days of Rum 2023, Blue Edition, Day 1 I initially like it much better on the nose than on the palate. Unfortunately, the fruity aromas fade within a few minutes and all that remains is a little vanilla and wood. After about 10 minutes, the palate is also furry and only alcoholic. Without wanting to be mean: a bit boring.
Review by Timo Groeger
Good night dear community. This rum tastes very alcoholic, but not too bad, still very tasty. Once again, I can taste a slight vanilla and caramel note. Delicious, good night :)
Review by Johannes
Nice fresh oak barrel with vanilla and caramel.
Review by Steffmaus🇩🇰
Part of 1423 "24 days of rum" Christmas rum-calendar. In the nose I found vanilla and some sweetness. In the notes I found some molasses and pepper, with a very fast fleeting kind of spicy aftertaste.
Review by TheJackDrop
An interesting product that I was able to re-taste recently. All in all, we've got some great stuff from Château du Breuil, admittedly still rather woody and marked by the barrel, but rather pleasant and reasonably priced!
Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
A quite woody rum. Somewhere in between Foursquare and Panama rum. Not overly complex or characteristic but enjoyable the same. American oak + vanilla very present.
Review by rum_sk
First sample of a 24 days of rum 24' and a very nice surprising one. 👃 is spicy with elements of black pepper, vanilla, oak and very distantly a coconut, medium alcoholic whiff. 👅 is very rich. Sweet tones of vanilla, chocolate, caramel and dairy such as cream are intersecting with spicy tones of black pepper and again very very distantly a hint of coconut. Short to medium finish full of woody tones. Very nice sample.
Review by Matthias Freynik
Sweet on the nose. Taste just alcohol
Review by epicsune 🇸🇪
Sample no.1 of the 24 days of rum calendar 2023. Nose: Sweey honey, coconut and vanilla. Some dried fruit like raisins. Palate: Not as sweet as on the nose. More of a warm spicy flavour. Peppery and tropical fruits along with wood from the barrels.
Review by Fayaman971
Et bien c’est une très bonne surprise que ce rhum venu de Thaïlande. C’est un 5 ans d’âge et pour moi , il ressemble beaucoup à un rhum des Antilles . Au nez , il est doux et fruité. Ça donne envi de le goûter . Et c’est là qu’on est surpris, il est fort pour un 42% . Il attaque tout de suite et j’adore . Seul bémol, final trop court . Comme quoi même en Thaïlande on fait du bon rhum!!!
Review by Richard Krupa
The softest pleasant sample.
Review by Lukáš Jarník
Pleasant, a bit spicy. I would definitely have it again.
Review by Schnapsschuesse
Lots of vanilla on the nose, a hint of glue, some wood and coconut. Then unfortunately immediately alcoholic and flat. On the palate surprisingly not sweet, but quite dry to even furry. Much of the nose doesn't come through, instead pepper and spices. Overall relatively unexciting.
Review by Irbis
Good nosing. Fruity and light, slightly sweet. Taste is totally different. Strong and spicy with medium finish that is pretty plain. Not good sipper but maybe can be good in cocktails.
Review by Robert Houba
Sharper and less complicated. The scent smells of alcohol, taste pleasant.
Review by Ondrej Czinege
Sharp smell, quite alcoholic. Taste is not bad (vanilla).
