Silver Seal Classic Rum (Edition 2022)
"Sure this is not a whisky?" — that's the running joke here, and it's fair. Several tasters get malty bread, pear, apple and vanilla with a light ginger edge, more like a gentle whisky than a rum. The nose is the best part; the palate turns thin and watery, and the finish barely shows up. Pleasant, easy, but nothing to chew on.
The community says- Balanced, no off-notes
- Nice pear-apple nose
- But: Thin, watery palate

How does Silver Seal Classic Rum (Edition 2022) taste?
Aggregated from 17 community reviews.
Light, malty, whisky-like everyday sipper Most find it pleasant and balanced but far too light — thin on the palate, almost no finish. No off-notes, just not much character. Several wished for a higher ABV.

Review by Thunderbird
Endlich Zeit, einen von den Underdogs zu tasten. Der Rum ist gar nicht mal so verkehrt und hätte bei ein paar Prozenten mehr richtig Potenzial. So bleibt leider nur die Nase als positivstes Merkmal. Am Gaumen ist er viel zu leicht und dünn , die Aromen, die durchaus vorhanden sind, kommen dadurch nicht richtig zur Geltung. Der Abgang ist extrem kurz
Review by Lot-NAS
Sure this not a Whisky you have sampled here zabo? I like the malty notes accompanied by pears, apples, ginger, vanilla and toasted bread. Sure, it is not overly complex but I find it pleasant and really balanced. Not a dram you would spend long thoughts on, but it is a nice companion to pour a second glass while doing something else.
Review by Leo Krüper
Underdog #6 For 40€ this would be a great thing. But for the 65-80€ it costs, it's too flat for me. Not recognizable at all and quite watery. But no off-notes either, so you can drink it. The finish is virtually non-existent.
Review by zabo
First impression: Nice sipper without rough edges, not a high-flyer, but not a total flop either. For the 65€ as an underdog it's okay, but nothing more. For me, it's more suitable as a mixer. But there are better ones out there too.
Review by Jakob
Solider Blend ohne Ecken und Kanten. Im positiven wie im negativen Sinne - angenehm zu trinken, aber auch nur bedingt fordernd.
