Thomas Sontheimer T.Sonthi Plum Cake Edition (Ron Zuarin)

Reviews here run hot and cold, and the split is really about expectations. This is a flavored, plum-heavy rum spirit — sugared stewed plums, honey, vanilla and a walnut edge, thick and syrupy enough to stand in for dessert. Beginners who dislike gummy-sweet profiles found it a pleasant surprise; drinkers wanting an actual rum called it plum liqueur with a name change. At 40% the alcohol still nips through the sugar.

The community says
  • Rich plum flavor
  • Keep in mind: Very sweet

How does Thomas Sontheimer T.Sonthi Plum Cake Edition (Ron Zuarin) taste?

Sweet plum dessert spirit, more liqueur than rum Loved as an easy sweet sipper, dismissed by others as more plum liqueur than rum. Some also find the alcohol bite jarring against all that sugar.

sweet-tooth beginners wanting a dessert pour

This is clearly a nice entry-level "rum." Very sweet, lots of fruit, no rough edges. Perfect for beginners who don't like Don Papa chewing gum profiles. At least I am positively surprised by this rum.

Uiuiui a really tough number the part. It was once a side dish from some order, don't worry, I wouldn't have bought such a sample voluntarily. Would certainly have been suitable 35 years ago to loosen up girls at their first parties, but now it's nothing at all! Sweet, artificial and even sweeter. Reminds me of that plum liqueur you often get as a gift from Chinese shops. Nothing to do with rum in my opinion, A.H.Riise is a grail in comparison 🤣

#6339 06/08.02.2026 My first visit to The Village in Nuremberg and it was a very pleasant surprise. I will definitely attend again as there is more than enough rum going around. I hate these rums, where they infuse all kinds of stuff. I was spoken into trying this one and I regretted it afterwards. A sweet to very sweet rum with fruit especially plum and light wood. This is definitely not my cup of tea.

Whisky'n'More Hattingen March 2026. Took as a sample. To fill the last brought sample bottle, after some searching this rum spirit (liquid dessert) from T. Sonthi was found, which had not yet been tasted. Nice fair :)

The smell already suggests that this rum comes across as sweeter. Well-balanced fruity aroma with sugary sweetness. What it promises at the beginning carries through from start to finish. Vanilla, fruits, and caramelized sugar. A pleasant honey note spreads in the finish.

Nase: Gezuckerte, eingelegte Pflaumen und Vanille strömen einem kräftig entgegen. Schon in der Nase ist der Rum Spirit sehr süß, begleitet wird er von Walnuss. Mund: Am Gaumen gibt sich der T.Sonthi & Ron Zuarin Plum Cake Edition Rum aufdringlich süß und leider gar nicht soo pflaumig wie noch in der Nase. Mir fehlt leider die gewisse Frische und Fruchtigkeit, die dem Stoff Abwechslung beschert hätte. So ist es m.E. eine sehr süße, homegene, zähflüssige Rumspirituose, die für meinen Gaumen deutlich zu süß geraten ist. Eine gewisse Würze von Eichenholz schwingt ebenso mit wie der nussige Unterton aus der Nase. Vanille und Pflaumen kommen vor allem beim Abgang wieder deutlich zurück. Wer es sehr süß mag, der wird mit diesem Tropfen sicher gut zurechtkommen. Auch als Ersatz für ein Dessert (auch von der Zuckermenge) gut denkbar. Rumnoten, insbesondere Barbados, aber auch ein Hauch Jamaica, kommen leider für mich etwas zu kurz. Hatte wahrscheinlich einfach eine andere Erwartung.

The rum tastes and smells like what it promises: sweet, fruity plum. What doesn't quite fit is the sharpness of the alcohol. It's quite pronounced and personally too intense for such a sweet rum.
