Tastillery CINECANE Popcorn Rum Gold
Pour it over cola and you've basically got liquid movie-night popcorn — that's where most people land with this. Real popcorn is macerated into a 12-year Barbados rum, so the buttery, caramelized, sweet-corn note is genuine, not chemical-tasting. It's very sweet, low on actual rum character, and works as a dessert pour or in a Popcorn Daiquiri. Neat, the sweetness and some heat take over.
The community says- Real popcorn flavor
- Less suitable for: Anyone wanting a classic, dry Barbados rum
- Keep in mind: Little rum character

Sweet, buttery popcorn rum for mixing A fun, genuinely popcorn-flavored spiced rum most enjoy mixed or over cola. Very sweet with little classic rum left; a few sip it neat, but that's a minority taste.

Not a classic rum but very tasty with cola! Perfect companion for a cinema evening. Tastes strongly of caramel, butter and popcorn. Also delicious as a popcorn old fashioned.

This one is a “rum” for fun only. Way to sweet and boring for me. Nice to mix it with a coke😝. #freeway. For the sugarbabes out there: You’ll get a more sweeter experience, if you add some salt. 🤭
Review by Mirco
Clearly flavored rum that hardly has anything in common with the classic Barbados profile anymore. On the nose: butter, popcorn, vanilla, and sweet corn. On the palate: soft, very round, and clearly artificial, with toffee, creamy sweetness, and an overpowering popcorn note that overshadows everything else. The low proof further takes away any depth. Overall, more of a fun product than a serious Barbados rum.
Review by Oliver
Has little to do with rum, of course. But as a party drink and exciting cocktail ingredient definitely succeeded!
Review by The Specialist
Tried it again after a while. Very sweet and the rum takes a backseat. But this popcorn note is really intense and in small amounts, you can definitely drink it as a dessert. It also works in cola. Funny idea.
Review by Rumbaer
The smell inevitably reminds you of the cinema. Really well done. The taste also reminds you of popcorn. Very, very sweet with caramel and definitely nice popcorn notes. A pure fun product for the home cinema or with friends.
Review by Christoph
A fun rum for a nice evening at the movies. It actually tastes and smells like delicious, caramelized popcorn.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Funny, unusual product in the spiced rum segment, overall too expensive and a bit too spirituous. But definitely doable 😃. But surprisingly awesome in Cinema Libre and as a popcorn daiquiri 🍿🎉
Review by Gregor
Very sweet and intense after popcorn. Unfortunately, does not have much to do with rum. But it is a quaffable drink
Review by Rene Pfeiffer
Very sweet. As a dessert quite nice.in Cuba Libre comes the very good.
Review by Thunderbird
For me, this has nothing to do with rum....
Review by Jürgen Gigl
Cool popcorn flavor that has really amazed me. Creates cinema feeling at the movie night.Is but for me no everyday rum, but rather a good drinkable "surprise" for friends.
Review by Andi
Successful popcorn “rum” was well received by friends. ;-) Popcorn smell and taste, very sweet.
Review by Yannick93
In my opinion, you can't and shouldn't compare it to a classic rum, they're too different and too far apart for that. But if you see the Cinecane as a spiced rum and look for something in that range, you get exactly that for your money. A sweet, easy-drinking but still tasty spiced rum. On the nose, you immediately get buttery caramel popcorn and are reminded of a typical cinema visit. The taste doesn't deviate much from that either. Sugary sweet, with caramel, a slight vanilla note, and sweet popcorn. The finish is a bit short and again very sweet, soft, and caramel-like. All in all, I can highly recommend it with cola or as a cocktail ingredient, or if you like it very sweet, of course, also neat.
Review by DomM
Ok… on the nose I think the popcorn flavor is quite nice actually. There is sweetness and noticable notes of corn. On The palate this is revoltingly sweet. Popcorn still noticable, given the extrem high sweetness this is just nothing for me, however.
Review by Beach-and-Rum 🏖️🌴
You get what you expect when buying. Nice for mixing and a great dessert. Less suitable neat.
Review by Martin Ekrt
A sample for the wife, but I gave it to my surprise as well. A strange and at the same time interesting rum. It's just a shame about the ton of sugar.
Review by Vinkes89
Popcorn flavor perfectly hit! Very sweet.
Review by Schnapsschuesse
You have to like it - not much more to say. The craftsmanship fits here, all good. The popcorn comes absolutely naturally and is cinema-full. Apart from quite marked alcoholic sharpness and somewhat too burnt caramel in the middle, it remains popcorn, not much rum left here. Except in the surprisingly long finish. One of the few fun products that are not rubbish but really fun if you want to get into it. Wonderful roasted-obscene El Presidente, lively Mai Tai (tip: use Sloe Gin instead of Triple Sec or Dry Curaçao), really good popcorn Daiquiri. Guilty as charged here.

What happens when you throw heavily sugared and buttered popcorn into rum and then heat it (maceration)? You get a rum that tastes so much like popcorn and smells even more like it, a blast. Unlike many big producers who secretly and quietly adulterate their rums to make them sweet and pleasant, here the flavor addition is the core of the product. And since real popcorn is thrown into the rum, it is extremely sweet but doesn't taste artificial at all.
Review by Han
A rum for fun: really tastes and smells like liquid (good) popcorn
Review by Richard Krupa

Review by Anonymous
Crazy popcorn smell and also strong but not so extreme taste. Generally tastier from glass to glass 😊 Extremely tasty with cola!
Review by Daniel
One-dimensional, but definitely unusual spiced rum from Germany. As a cinema fan, you should definitely try it 😉
Review by Dirk E.
Glad to have tasted it, but it wouldn't be my thing often.
Review by IBzerbasteln
Truly fascinating. I blind tasted this one at a friend’s and I thought I was smelling a liquor, perhaps Disaronno. Super nice and sweet. Not a crazy complex delicacy but a really fun drink that I thoroughly enjoyed.
