N. Kröger Wagemut First High Ester Batch of our very own Rum 2025
People already deep into high-ester rum are the audience here — this is a fruit-ester bomb at 71.7%, all pineapple, glue, rubber and overripe yellow fruit. Several tasters say it drinks more like a fruit brandy (pear or apple schnapps) than a classic rum, and one missed the grubby Jamaican funk. Young and raw, more promising base than finished sipper.
- Big fruit esters
- Alcohol well integrated
- Pineapple aroma

How does N. Kröger Wagemut First High Ester Batch of our very own Rum 2025 taste?
Aggregated from 12 community reviews.
Raw, brandy-like pineapple ester bomb Loved by ester fans as a fruity, brandy-like "Fruchtesterbombe," and the alcohol is well integrated — but it reads young and flat to some, and one tester called it undrinkable as is.

Review by Rumantisch
Die 71,7% merkt man doch deutlich im Mund. Trotzdem sehr lecker viel funky noten von Banane und Kleber in der Nase und im mund. Absolut nichts für Anfänger oder Fortgeschrittene das ist eher was für Erfahrene Rum genießer Ich würde ihn auf jeden fall empfehlen.
Review by Tom 1968
Uhh … Ich habe ihn erst pur und dann mit Waaser verdünnt probiert. Ist schon ein starker Stoff, aber irgendwie mild im Abgang. Geschmacklich im jetzigen Zustand ein Unding. Mir fehlt die Fantasie bzw. Erfahrung was aus dem Stoff mal werden kann. Ich werde mal etwas „Rummixen“ und hier und da eine süße Sherrynote einfließen lassen. Falls das alles nicht hilft, muss ich mir etwas anderes überlegen.

Sehr schöner Esther Anteil, wird sofort warm im Mund aber brennt nicht
Review by Killa
Super heftiges Brett, welches einen beim ersten Schluck aus den Socken haut. Ultra viel Geschmack auf kleinster Menge. Super Basis für das was noch kommen mag. Bin gespannt wie es in ein paar Jahren gereift schmeckt.
