Casa Barú Double Crop Geisha Coffee Pure Pot Still Rum
The gimmick is real: sugarcane fermented with Geisha coffee yeast, and coffee genuinely leads here — mocha, milk chocolate, caramelized burnt sugar. But at 40% and only 3-4 years old the palate reads thin, and even fans call the alcohol a bit rough for the proof. Green apple and a surprising chili note keep the nose interesting; several tasters just wanted more body.

Coffee-yeast experiment, thin at 40% A curious coffee-yeast experiment more than a great rum — most land around average, calling it too thin and wishing it came at a higher proof.

Review by zabo
Auch hier erstmal wieder zuerst wieder vielen Dank an crazyforgoodbooze für das überlassen der Flaschen für umme. Scheint das man so wohl noch nicht an diese Abfüllungen ran kommt, was nun auch wirklich kein großer Verlust ist. Auf jedenfall ist diese Abfüllung durch seinen Geschmack eine neue Richtung die ich so noch nie probiert habe. Mit einem ordentlichen ABV bestimmt um einiges geiler. Positiv überrascht. Als Mixer eher unpassend m.M. nach.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Basically an exciting experiment to ferment the sugar cane molasses together with the yeast from the geisha coffee, the coffee aroma definitely sets the tone here. It certainly makes some delicious cocktails, but I don't really see the point of such a young rum with coffee yeast fermentation on the market. Especially not for over 40€.
Review by primus
Im Vergleich zum ungealterten hat dieser hier eine deutlich fruchtige Nase. (grüner) Apfel dominant und eine überraschende Chili Note. Geschmacklich ergänzt das Holz gut. Angeneu karamellig mit Mokka.
Review by DomM
I like this „coffee spiced“ version better than the 5y. Still not overly fond of this one either.
Review by Johannes
Etwas interessanter, aber leichte Fehlnoten nach vergorenen Früchten.
Review by Leo Krüper
Leider ist der Alkohol trotz des jungen Alters schon schlecht eingebunden und das bei nur 40%. Ansonsten wäre hier sicher was gegangen. So ist man wieder ratlos, was genau das hier sein soll. Erweckt zumindest etwas Interesse.
Review by Tim
An der Nase unweigerlich Apfel und Rauch, das schreit nach einem dominanten Bourbon-Fass. Begleitaromen wie Schokolade oder Holz sind vorhanden, verbessern diesen Rum aber nicht wesentlich. Tatsächlich auch noch mit Finish im Whisky-Fass, mhm, das holt mich nicht ab. Langer Rauchnachgeschmack.
Review by Christian Rudt
Schmeckt wie ein Kaffeelikör. Aber da gibt es einigere die in Geschmack und Aroma deutlich voraus sind. Dennoch Stärker an der Nase. Am Gaumen wie die anderen Abfüllungen schlicht und einfach zu dünn.
