Trois Frères Distillery Takamaka Dark Spiced
Opinions here split hard: several people find it a good, fruity mixer for cola and cocktails, while a few call it undrinkable neat. The common thread is sweet vanilla, cinnamon and papaya, with tropical fruit and a bit of grass underneath. Made with flavor essences, it reads more like a spiced dessert pour than a classic rum. Best in a glass with cola, not on its own.
The community says- Good in cola
- Rough neat
- Tastes sweetened

Aggregated from 34 community reviews.
Sweet spiced mixer, better in cola than neat Most see it as a fruity, cinnamon-and-vanilla mixer that shines in cola and cocktails. Sipped neat it divides sharply, with several finding it too sweet or artificial.

Review by Oli Dekrell
Cinnamony nose & palate. Delicious on its own, but certainly also in fruit cocktails
Review by heckto🥃
Die Nase wird von tropischen Früchten begrüßt. Ein sehr süßer Rum mit Noten von Karamell, Vanille und Früchten (Papaya, Aprikose). Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis ist gut aber er ist eher für Cocktails als für den puren Genuss geeignet.

Review by DutchRumPirate
For a dark spiced rum I like this one. Sweet on the nose with vanille, dry fruits and cinnamon. In the mouth a lot of vanille and cinnamon but for a spiced not to dominant. This one is for me mainly for the cocktail and coke.
