Old Pascas Dark Rum
Anyone looking for a cheap bottle to pour into cola will get what they came for here — and not much beyond that. At 37.5% it tastes thin and spritzy despite the low proof, with glue and a little wood hanging around, plus faint caramel and tropical fruit. Neat, most tasters found little to hold onto; several called it "barely ok with Coke."

How does Old Pascas Dark Rum taste?
Summarized by AI from 34 community reviews.
Thin discount mixer, best in cola Most people treat this as a mixer only. Neat it reads thin and spirity, with glue and light wood; fine in cola, not something you'd sip.

Just a cheap discounter
Review by Rumantisch
Der Old pascas von mir früher gerne old Oettinger genannt (weil er so billig ist) war mein absoluter Preis leistungs Sieger früher als ich noch 26 jahre alt war und party gemacht habe. Er ist der preislich bessere Bacardi Ersatz. Viel mehr oder weniger wie Bacardi kann eh halt auch nicht
Review by heckto🥃
This rum really isn't a pleasure on its own. Despite the low alcohol content, it tastes fizzy. Glue and a little wood linger on the palate, that's all you can taste. It is acceptable for rum and cola.
Review by Timo Groeger
Day trip Bielefeld April 2025. Pub Three Sixty. Really lousy pub, only has cheap rums sold for 1/3 of the bottle price. Whatever, mostly tastes alcoholic, but it's a new point :)

Nur in Cola und sonst nichts. Pur ungenießbar.
Review by Portman
Another mixable discount rum, but it's hardly suitable for anything more than cola.
Review by Jakob Deiner
Recht typische dunkle, röstige, würzige Dark Rum Noten mit etwas Fass und einem leicht kräutrigen Anklang, der sich in den relativ kurzen Abgang durchzieht. Angesichts des günstigen Preises solide. Drinks: - Pur: 3/5 - Rum Cola: 3.5/5

Barely ok with Coke...
Review by JanWolf
Wirklich nur zum Mixen geeignet, Dunkel in der Farbe aber kein Geschmack zum so mischen, hoher Alkohol Geschmack, wirkt hoch wertiger als er ist durch sein Etikett Cola Eis und der rum mehr taugt er nicht
