Silverstone Echter Übersee Rum 40
Bakers and cola-mixers will get the most out of this one — that's where members put it. Neat, it's thin and watery, with only a faint caramel-vanilla note on the nose and a lot of raw alcohol showing through. One taster blind-served it to Havana-and-cola friends and it passed fine. Nobody here recommends sipping it straight.
The community says- Fine for baking
- But: Watery, thin

The look inside the bottle
How does Silverstone Echter Übersee Rum 40 taste?
Aggregated from 10 community reviews.
Thin, watery mixer — better for baking than sipping The verdict is blunt: too thin and boozy to drink neat, fine for baking or a cola longdrink. A budget bottle nobody pretends is more than that.

Review by Tim
Ein Discounter-Rum, der nichts kann und den man für irgendwas verwenden kann (Backen, Mixen, Feuerzangenbowle etc.), aber nicht zum Pur trinken. Sehr neutral ohne Aromen und verwässert. Nur eine leichte Karamell/Vanillenote ist an der Nase vorhanden.
Review by Johannes
Zum Backen ok.
