Aroma visualization from community tastings
Braasch Rum Klassik
Sipped neat it comes across light and watery, with a bit of pineapple and raisin and not a lot else — most tasters wanted more in the glass. Even at 40% the alcohol reads poorly integrated, and the finish leaves a peppery, slightly bitter and furry tail. A few see it as a gentle, cheap first sip-neat rum; more experienced drinkers here find it thin and forgettable.
The community says- Light and mild
- But: Watery body
- But: Bitter finish

The look inside the bottle
How does Braasch Rum Klassik taste?
Aggregated from 13 community reviews.
Light, watery Jamaican with a peppery finish Verdict skews low: most call it thin, watery and lightly bitter on the finish, with poorly bound alcohol. A couple rate it a fair, easy beginner pour, nothing more.

Review by Henning
Leichter Rum. Gut geeignet zum Einstieg in die Welt des Pur Trinkens. Gutes Preis Leistungsverhältnis. Schöne Farbe. Leichter Rosinenton, sowie schöne Frucht-Töne bei älteren sehr beliebt. Weich und mild
Review by Timo Groeger
So, nun also der nächste. Ist ein ziemlich fruchtiger Rum, in der Nase sowohl am als auch am Gaumen. Naja, viel mehr gibt es nicht zu berichten. Fruchtiges Teil, ganz okay, mehr halt nicht, kann man nix machen.
Review by Rumpalumpa
Rum aus Flensburg. Da die Stadt eine recht lang zurück gehende Verbindung zum Rum hat finde ich es schade, dass die nur zu wenig geführt hat. (abgesehen von ein paar limitierten Abfüllungen) Dieser erinnert mich sehr an den billigen Pott Rum, auch aus Flensburg. Würde mich nicht wundern wenn der Inhalt weitestgehend gleich ist.
Review by Michael Schillheim
Nachverkostung des Braasch Klassik aus Flensburg. Ein Rum aus meinen Anfangszeiten dem ich nun ein paar Punkte weniger geben muss. Schlecht eingebundener Alkohol und im Nachklang eine unangenehme Bitterkeit und Pelzigkeit. Seine Geschwister stellen sich heute Abend ebenfalls einer Nachverkostung bzw. Neuverkostung.
Review by Lukas Jäger
Das ist mal dünnes Zeug! Irgendwie ist da nicht wirklich Geschmack vorhanden. Dazu noch schlecht eingebundener Alkohol, der trotz gerade einmal 40% in der Nase präsent ist. Am Gaumen wässrig und doch bitter-pelzig. Immerhin nicht totgesüßt, dafür gibts ein paar Punkte mehr.

Kaum Geschmack, trotz der nur 40% Alkohol schlecht eingebunden
Review by René Müller
Quite Watery On the boring side. Finish leaves pepper on the tongue and nothing else
