N. Kröger Wagemut Fasssprache: Kiri Rum N. 13 2023
Opinions land around "interesting more than great" — this is one experiment in a 16-cask project, and members treat it that way. Aged an extra six months in Kiri wood, it stays close to the young base: recognizable oak, black currant, green apple, a clear tobacco note that runs into the finish, salty-peppery underneath. At 62.7% the alcohol reads well integrated. Several tasters wanted a longer rest.
The community says- Clear tobacco note
- But: Very young
- But: Close to base rum

The look inside the bottle
How does N. Kröger Wagemut Fasssprache: Kiri Rum N. 13 2023 taste?
Aggregated from 10 community reviews.
Young, woody Trinidad with a tobacco streak Rated as a fun tasting exercise rather than a bottle to chase — the Kiri wood adds tobacco and a touch of sweetness, but most find it too close to the young base rum.

Review by Johannes
Leichte Nuss, leicht speckig-rauchig, Alkohol besser eingebunden, insgesamt runder.
Review by Frank
Fasssprache N. 13 Kiri vs. N. 01 Basis Rum. Die 6 zusätzlichen Monate im new-make Kiri-Baum-Fass haben die Farbe um nur 3 Stufen dunkler werden lassen. Das könnte am schnell wachsenden Holz liegen… Nase: schon noch sehr ähnlich zur Basis, wenn auch etwas holziger. Geht Richtung jungem Holz Balsaholz oder Stroh. Eine karamellige Süße und ein Hauch Tabak kommen hinzu. Leicht fruchtig, aber nicht Limette, sondern Johannisbeere und dazu dann der grüne Apfel. Nur zarte Veränderung, aber ok. 7,2 Gaumen: viel weniger bitter aber ebenso salzig-pfefferig und holziger-würzig wie die Basis. Anders ist allerdings die deutliche Tabak-Note gleich zu Beginn, die bis in den Abgang bleibt. Das kommt sich noch etwas Muskat hinzu. Für mich zu nah am Ausgangsmaterial. 7,0
Review by Jarek
Wagemut Fasssprache, 16 mal der gleiche Basis-Rum in Fässern aus jeweils unterschiedlichem Holz gelagert. Sehr interessantes Projekt (danke an Flo für das Teilen). Würzig und mit schönen Noten von schwarzen Johannisbeeren.
Review by Mirco
Wagemut Fasssprache Projekt (Cask Strenght) Zu erwarten ist, dass für solch ein Projekt nicht der best-mögliche Rum verwendet wird. Der Basis Rum ist vergleichsweise spritig ohne besondere Ausprägung. 1.Flight: Base Rum / alle Oaks Interessant, wie sehr doch die Unterschiede bei einzelnen Eichen-Arten sind. Mizunara hat mich besonders überrascht. 2.Flight: Base Rum / Spezial Hölzer Wahnsinnig unterschiedlich, von schlecht zu gut war alles dabei. Besten Dank für dieses interessantes Projekt.
