Edelbrände Senft Rum Jamaica Wood-Finish 2021
Peach, honey and pear lead here — one taster half-joked it could pass for a fruit brandy if not for the light oak. It's a German-made, molasses rum aged three years, and it drinks sweet, mild and very fruity with only a faint whisper of ester and wood. Most agree it tastes sweetened, closer to a sweet fruit sipper than a classic Jamaican.
The community says- Peach and honey
- But: Tastes sweetened
- But: Little complexity

Sweet, fruity, mild — more dessert sipper People find it pleasant, fruity and easy, but nearly everyone lands on "too sweet." Fine for dessert or newcomers; anyone wanting real rum character or complexity walks away unconvinced.

Review by Tim
Dieser Rum ist von Jamaika-Rum inspiriert und aus echtem jamaikanischen Zuckerrohr destilliert. Man kann das Jamaika-Flair im Ansatz nachvollziehen, da dieser Rum sehr fruchtig ist und eventuell auch etwas Ester mitschwingt. Allerdings könnte man auch meinen, einen gesüßten Birnenschnaps vor sich zu haben. Im Mund gibt es dann neben der fruchtigen Süße auch eine brennende Alkoholschärfe. Aber all das wird stets von einer dominanten Honig/Sirupnote überdeckt, weshalb hier definitiv nachgebessert wurde und das finale Produkt sehr zwiegespaltene Gefühle zurücklässt.
Review by Philipp F.
Das Bouquet kommt sehr fruchtig daher, ganz klar Birne, Pfirsich, Mirabelle, man könnte fast meinen es handelt sich um einen Obstbrand, wäre da nicht noch die leichte Holznote. Geschmacklich bestätigt sich das ganze, der Rum ist relativ süß, mild und sehr fruchtig. Honig und Birne sind klar im Vordergrund, die leichte Holznote ist aber immer noch dezent vorhanden. Ebenso leichte, kaum wahrnehmbare Esternoten. Der Abgang ist kurz, mild, süß und fruchtig. Insgesamt ein guter deutscher Rum, man darf eben keinen echten Jamaikaner, Kubaner oder Venezuelaner erwarten. Trinkt sich sehr angenehm, ist aber wenig komplex, was nicht negativ gemeint ist. Er macht Spaß und ist sehr süffig. Gut für Anfänger ist er alle Mal geeignet.
Review by Galli33
Nice smell and taste of peaches! Other than peaches you smell honey, sugar. In mouth it‘s very sweet. It has a light mild body. It‘s sweetened, isn‘t it? The finish is short with tastes of honey, sugar, vanilla with some notes of peaches and oak at the end. It‘s a good rum for desert. It‘s not what i like to drink, because it‘s very sweet(ened?) and to weak, light, without character or complexity
Review by Jürgen Gigl
Ich konnte ihn beim Hersteller verkosten und er hat mich noch sehr überzeugt. Da ich eher nicht so süße Rums mag, ist er nicht in den Favoritenkreis gekommen. Er ist angenehm mild im Mund, sehr süß und fruchtig und hat einen eher kurzen Abgang. P.S.: Eine kleine Flasche hab ich mir trotzdem mitgenommen weil man ja auchfür Süßrumfreunde was bieten sollte 😏🥃
Review by MarcT
A sweet surprise during a visit at a friend's place. It is clearly sweetened, a liquor, but not a bad one: it's not overpowered by artificial flavour. Also, one can get a hint of wood and Funk, which makes it a bit more interesting. To me it is too sweet, but my wife liked it (she normally does not taste my samples).

Etwas zu süß und zu kräftig.
