Aroma visualization from community tastings
Etter Swiss RUM1823
Members here mostly agree, and it's not kind: this drinks like an orange liqueur, not a rum. Expect a big hit of orange and orange peel over a thin, sweet, neutral-alcohol base — one taster compared it to those chocolate-orange sticks from the supermarket, another to a cheap triple sec. The orange note is the one thing people credit; past that, there's little rum character to find.
The community says- Strong orange note
- But: Tastes artificial
- But: Very thin

How does Etter Swiss RUM1823 taste?
Summarized by AI from 12 community reviews.
Sweet orange liqueur, barely rum-like The verdict is harsh and consistent: too sweet, too thin, and the orange aroma reads artificial. Several tasters struggle to call it rum at all.

Review by Christian Rudt
Who doesn't know the orange sticks with dark chocolate from the supermarket? This tastes exactly the same. It's hard to call it serious rum and apart from orange and a little vanilla, not much else is perceptible. Maybe you can make new orange sticks with it 😁
Review by Oliver
Unpleasant artificial orange aroma.
Review by Johannes
Very thin. Tastes like neutral alcohol with orange aroma.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Very artificial like cherry marzipan... Absolutely not cool.
Review by Vinkes89
Very sweet and light...
Review by Mc Pirate
Orange nose and orange and more orange, typically orange liqueur on the palate, but no rum taste at all in this drink!

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...
