Etter Swiss RUM1823
Almost nobody here is sold on this one. The overwhelming note is orange — orange peel, orange candy, on and on — sitting on what tasters call thin, neutral alcohol. One member nailed it as chocolate-orange supermarket sticks; another compared it to cheap triple sec. A little caramel and vanilla show up, but there's barely any rum character underneath the synthetic orange.
- Strong orange note
- Light and easy
- Soft, not hot

How does Etter Swiss RUM1823 taste?
Aggregated from 12 community reviews.
Sweet, artificial orange, barely tastes like rum Most tasters land in the same place: heavy artificial orange over thin, neutral spirit, with almost no rum left. A few note sweetness; nearly all find it more orange liqueur than rum.

Anyone wanting real rum character or a dry, layered pour

Review by Mc Pirate
Nez orange et orange et encore orange, bouche typiquement liqueur d’orange, par contre, aucun goût de rhum dans ce breuvage !
Review by Vinkes89
Sehr süß und leicht...
Review by Johannes
Sehr dünn. Schmeckt nach Neutralalkohol mit Orangenaroma.
Review by Oliver
Unpleasant artificial orange aroma.
Review by Christian Rudt
Wer kennt sie nicht die Orangenstäbchen mit dunkler Schokolade aus dem Supermarkt. Genauso schmeckt das hier. Ernsthaft Rum kann man das schwer nennen und außer orange und etwas Vanille auch nicht viel mehr wahrnehmbar. Vielleicht kann man damit neue Orangenstäbchen machen 😁

Sehr Künstlich wie Kirsch Marzipan... Absolut nicht geil

Expert review by The Dunder Hut
"Seriously, wtf? Etter is a quality distiller but this is just horrible. It only gets some points for some orange aroma. But the rest is neutral alcohol. This feels like a very cheap triple sec. I have no clue in which universe this is acceptable..."
