N. Kröger Wagemut Special Edition GRF 2022 2012
Opinions land in a tight band: most call it a good way to dip into cask-strength Jamaicans, a couple find it sharp and not quite rounded. Expect ester, ripe banana and a distinct glue note over light wood, with a warm, fruity finish. Worthy Park clearly leads. At 63.4% the alcohol runs hot — several tasters let it breathe or added a few drops of water.
The community says- Ripe banana funk
- Long warm finish
- Alcohol runs hot

The look inside the bottle
How does N. Kröger Wagemut Special Edition GRF 2022 2012 taste?
Aggregated from 19 community reviews.
Hot, ester-driven cask-strength Jamaican A well-priced entry into cask-strength Jamaican funk. Banana, ester and glue are all there; the main gripe is that the high-proof heat isn't fully integrated.

Review by Timo Groeger
Kneipe Alte Post Witten Februar 2025. Jetzt ein Worthy Park von Wagemut. In der Nase haben wir hauptsächlich Ester, Banane und Rotwein. Am Gaumen dann viel Ester Banane und Klebstoff, außerdem wirkt er etwas überreif.
Review by Fuwi
Zunächst metallisch süß auf der Zungenspitze, am Gaumen kommt dann eine Fruchtbombe an. Matschige, überreife Banane und Ananas, dann ein wenig bitter wie grüne Birne aber schwer Funky wie Jamaika eben auf der Zunge tanzt. Der Alkohol ist erst stechend, mit ein paar Tropfen Wasser kommt er gefälliger daher und man kann die einzelnen Aromen feiner heraus arbeiten. Macht Spaß!
Review by Oliver
Gelungener Einstieg, um in die Welt von Cask Strength Jamaikanern zu schnuppern.
Review by zabo
Quite a nice sipper, but unfortunately nothing more. Thanks to Jarek for letting me have another bottle. Edit: I've now tried it as a mixer. Yes, in my opinion it can do more than neat. Very drinkable. That's why it didn't last long.

Review by Balian
Nicht rund der Alkohol ist sehr dominant. Am 2.Tag runder deutlich besser. Empfehle längere Zeit atmen lassen.
Review by Johannes
Alles was drauf steht kann man herausschmecken-bis auf Hampden, den schmecke ich nicht. WP dominiert, Alkohol könnte besser eingebunden sein.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Find ich persönlich nicht so rund und relativ scharf...
