N. Kröger Wagemut Fasssprache: Caucasian Oak Rum N. 07 2023
One reviewer pinned it as "holzig, fruchtig, frisch" — and that's the gist: a young Trinidad cask-strength rum finished six months in Caucasian oak, which deepens the color and pushes it toward maple syrup, passion fruit and a smoky tobacco edge. The base is spirity and the wood influence is light, so most tasters found it interesting more than wowing. Notably earthy, nutty and spicy, not sweet.
The community says- Earthy, nutty depth
- Spirity base
- Hot alcohol

Earthy, woody cask-strength experiment Part of a wood-comparison project, scoring around 7/10. People liked the earthy, nutmeg-and-licorice character, but several felt the base rum was thin and the alcohol not fully integrated.

Review by Frank
Fasssprache N. 07 Caucasian Oak vs. N. 01 Basis Rum. Die 6 zusätzlichen Monate im new-make Eichenfass aus dem Kaukasus-Gebirge haben die Farbe um 8 Stufen dunkler werden lassen. Nase: zu Beginn kurz alkoholisch, aber weniger als die Basis, auch weniger pfefferig, dafür fruchtiger und süßlicher. Die Frucht wandelt sich von Limette und grünem Apfel mehr Richtung süß-säuerlicher Maracuja. Hinzu kommt eine angenehme Ahornsirup-Süße mit einer fein rauchigen Tabak-Note . Angenehm. 7,5 Gaumen: starker Fasseinfluß, holziger, würziger, voller. Zu Beginn auch bitter-salzig, aber schnell intensiver in Richtung Muskat und Lakritze, diese gibt auch eine herbe, speckige Süße, die intensiver als die der Basis ist. Kräftig-herb-süß, gut. 7,5
Review by Johannes
Wenig Fasseinfluss, Alkohol könnte besser eingebunden sein.
Review by Mirco
Wagemut Fasssprache Projekt (Cask Strenght) Zu erwarten ist, dass für solch ein Projekt nicht der best-mögliche Rum verwendet wird. Der Basis Rum ist vergleichsweise spritig ohne besondere Ausprägung. 1.Flight: Base Rum / alle Oaks Interessant, wie sehr doch die Unterschiede bei einzelnen Eichen-Arten sind. Mizunara hat mich besonders überrascht. 2.Flight: Base Rum / Spezial Hölzer Wahnsinnig unterschiedlich, von schlecht zu gut war alles dabei. Besten Dank für dieses interessantes Projekt.
Review by Jarek
Wagemut Fasssprache, 16 mal der gleiche Basis-Rum in Fässern aus jeweils unterschiedlichem Holz gelagert. Sehr interessantes Projekt (danke an Flo für das Teilen). Irgendwo zwischen den fruchtigen No. 3 bis 5 und dem würzigen No. 2. Von den Fässern mit „Oak“ im Namen haben mir American Oak und Caucasian Oak noch am besten gefallen.
