A Clean Spirit Skunk Rum Hooded
Opinions run all over the place on this Danish pot-still bruiser. Most people smell tequila or mezcal before rum — smoke, tropical fruit, esters and a big wall of alcohol. Tasting notes range from "smokey burnt rubber" to chemical sweetness. A couple of tasters genuinely enjoy the funk; more find it spirity, dry and unrounded at 58%.

How does A Clean Spirit Skunk Rum Hooded taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Smoky, spirity, tequila-like pot-still oddity Divisive and very alcoholic. Some catch smoky fruit and esters they like; more find it chemical, tequila-like and rough. Better in a drink than the sipping chair for most.

Review by Eugene227
Fällt mit tropischer Frucht, fast Tequila-ähnlich, Rauch und deutlichen Ester-Noten durchaus auf, wirkt aber recht unausgewogen. Die 58 % bringen viel Alkohol und Schärfe mit, während es an Tiefe und Harmonie fehlt. Interessant, aber das chemisch-alkoholische Profil eignet sich eher zum Mixen statt zum Purgenießen.
Review by Timo Groeger
Ooooh yes, another very alcoholic rum. You can't really taste anything more like alcohol. But that's exactly what I like. A very strong rum if you only pay attention to the percentage. Very tasty :)
Review by Steffmaus🇩🇰
Part of the 1423 christmas rum-calendar of 2023. In the nose it's very tequila-like, with a fruity freshness and smoky hints. I found the notes to be very funky, with dried fruits, coconut and some spicyness
Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
Somewhat light alcoholic spirity smell. Tequila comes to mind. Taste very spirity too. Not unlike wodka. Weird chemical sweetness. Not sure what to think of this.
Review by Irbis
Well, it is not something you want to sip in a chair. Maybe it could work in cocktails but who knows. Nosing is smoky maybe peated, fruity and alcoholic. Nothing better you can expect of taste. It is alcoholic but expectable, dry, slightly smoke, and chemical. Im not a fun of such rums.. :) so 5 only for the barrel proof
Review by epicsune 🇸🇪
Sample no.2 of the 24 days of rum calendar 2023. Very alcoholic on the nose. A smokey tequila with a splash of tar. Taste is better than the nose but still alcoholic, but at 58 ABV you get what you’d expect. More of a smokey burnt rubber along the alcoholic tequila. This was not my style of rum.
Review by Emanuel S
An okay rum. Reminds me of a mezcal in some ways.Would be better in a drink than as a sipper.
Review by Schnapsschuesse
Mezcal on the nose, plus some fruit. Some ester, a little dirty. I like it. Some sweetness, quite warm on the palate. Alcohol relatively edgy. Then tips directly into allspice and dry wood - a bit of a shame, simply because it's quite unrounded.
Review by Mateusz
Quite sweet surprisingly actually. Strong esters and ripe fruits in both smell and taste
Review by Fayaman971
Ce rhum venu du Paraguay est vraiment spécial. Déjà il est à 58% d’alcool donc il est vraiment fort , on le sent passer dans le gosier lol. Au nez , une forte odeur d’alcool et de divers fruits tropicaux . En bouche…en dirait de l’eau de vie plus que du rhum ! Je ne suis pas habitué à ce genre de goût . Le final est court/moyen bref un rhum à tester mais pas plus.
