Ferroni Tasty Overproof
Ripe tropical fruit soaked in pear-and-plum schnapps, sugar cane, pepper and a metallic funky edge — that's the core of this 74% blend. Reviewers pick up banana, mint and lime zest, with a cooked-wine finish adding a vineous, fermented note. The trouble most agree on: at this strength the alcohol runs hot and can bury the fruit if you're not careful.
The community says- Ripe tropical fruit
- Funky cane character

Summarized by AI from 25 community reviews.
Fruity, funky Jamaican overproof, very hot Members find it original and fruity with real cane character, but several say the 74% alcohol is sharp and poorly integrated, tasting young. Good value, big power.

An extremely interesting rum because very original due to its blend of a big Jamaican molasses (WP) which is enhanced by two pure juices, one from Martinique (Simon column) and one from Mauritius (Saint Aubin), all finished in cooked wine casks. This blend offers us a lot of fruit passed through solvent (almost eau de vie) with lots of spices and a funky metallic side, the pure juices give us their freshness and vegetal sides. The finish in cooked wine casks brings a fermented and vinous side to all this, which we don’t dislike. Excellent!

Very very powerful, maybe a bit too much.
Review by TheJackDrop
Ohhh an overproof from Ferroni, that must be great! Ah yes, but no... because of poorly integrated and omnipresent alcohol. It feels like it's 80+%, which is a shame because the fruits are there, a little menthol, a certain freshness, a slight metallic note that doesn't bother, but it really hurts the head and palate...
Review by Johannes
Alcohol is already very present. Overall little flavor.
Review by Spirits-Museum Sven Brosens
Alcohol very sharp. But with 74% that's not surprising. Rather young distillate. A few more years wouldn't have hurt. A bit of both worlds, molasses and cane juice.
Review by LukaŽiga
8,3:What a funky nose! We're teleported directly to Jamaica and the cane sugar, very intense, thick, mineral has made the trip with us. The exotic fruits are very ripe, swimming in plum or pear schnapps. The red fruits are concentrated and greedy, as in a lightly sweetened grenadine syrup. The sugar is nevertheless powerfully expressed, but more through its cooking aromas. There are, of course, some heavy olive and resinous notes, even boiled egg notes, so a bit sulphurous, perhaps nitrogenous... On aeration, the profile doesn't seem to deviate much from its trajectory. But by some magic, in the blink of an eye, we find ourselves with an agricultural rum in the glass! Cane, lime zest, a touch of pepper, nuts as walnut, but what's happened? The cane schnapps is even very charming, and then the two styles gradually come together, it's superb and it's completely crazy... As the final addition, we could dig up even fruit schnapps notes!? 8:On the palate, the attack is typical of Jamaican overproofs, very fruity, concentrated but round. The honeyed cane with dark chocolate confirms this roundness, and the two rums complement each other extremely well. The synergy is perfect. The candied, honeyed just-peppered cane, mineral with licorice and the very ripe fruit come together, embrace and then drift apart, before starting again. 7,8:In the finale, the Jamaican monster has the elegance to let the pretty farmer express himself...
Review by Renato
The cane is well present, with fruits and lots of spices.
Review by Richard Krupa
Very warming, banana, pepper, overripe fruit.
Review by Jean Louisss
A good sugarcane presence from start to finish, supported by a cooked wine barrel finish that you can really feel. The whole is quite dry and fresh, maybe lacking a bit of aging. Very good value for money, though.
Review by Matthieu Leibbrandt
A very beautiful power balanced by fresh notes, a nice length on the palate.
Review by Martin Švojgr
Big surprise. Very good rum for this money!
