Pott Der Gute Pott Echter Übersee Rum
One member sums it up: this is mostly alcohol. At 54% it comes across hot and sharp, with raisin and brown sugar poking through and a rough, young edge that several tasters found hard to get past. A few grew up with it and keep a soft spot for it, but most agree there's not much rum character beyond the burn. It's a mixer, not a sipper.
The community says- Strong for mixing
- Very alcoholic, harsh
- Tastes young

How does Pott Der Gute Pott Echter Übersee Rum taste?
Aggregated from 27 community reviews.
Hot, sharp overproof for mixing only Most find it hot, young and thin — more alcohol than rum. A couple keep it for nostalgia, but even in cola it stays sharp. Best used for a rumtopf.

Strong but interesting
Review by Portman
Of course, there's no need for an extensive tasting at this point, but I can't help but rate the "Guten Pott" as pleasant, as I practically grew up with it! :-D
Review by JFehr
Zu süß. Alkohol schlecht eingebunden. Sticht nicht positiv hervor
