Khukri XXX

People after a light, sweet, spiced-style pour are the audience here — think vanilla, caramel and toffee up front with a floral, faintly menthol turn. Several tasters compare it to Don Papa rather than an aged rum, and the medicinal, near-neutral edge shows up neat. Most agree it's better in cola with plenty of ice than in a glass alone.

Light, sweet, floral pour with a medicinal edge Reviews run low and mostly agree: light, sweet and floral with a medicinal streak that turns some off neat. A few find it drinkable in cola, few would buy again.

4.2/10

Overall better than expected, but nothing I can recommend. The nose dominates by vanilla, caramel and som licorice. At the palate is the scents of vanilla, caramel and licorice still there but it’s also flowery and tastes menthol.

To be honest, you have to admit that the rum is not even that good on its own. It's a mixture of watered-down neutral alcohol with medicinal notes and a little sweetness. I decided to simply pour it into the cola with lots of ice, it's more pleasant but unfortunately not a hit either.

5.5/10

Sweet, caramel, a bit spicy, pleasant smell but nothing too complex or deep in the aroma or taste. A solid choice in Nepal, though it’s a shame they don’t have anything older or more refined in their lineup.
