Jaffa Cake Rum

On the nose Jaffa Cake Rum predominantly smells of orange with just a hint of chocolate. Drank neat the orange continues to be the more dominant, because what you experience on the palate, but not so much in the after taste, is an orange tasting rum that is sweet but thankfully not overly zingy. All well and good, but for me this rum comes alive when mixed with Coca-Cola. The coke brings out the chocolate flavour, making Jaffa Cake Rum much more enjoyable. And not only that, the fizzy dark stuff also makes this rum smell more like chocolate as well. So the way I see it, you have two simple choices. If you would prefer this rum zesty with a very slight spicy kick, then drink it neat. However, if like me you have a sweet tooth, then adding Coca-Cola is an absolute must, because then you will experience a whole new side to this rum. A sweeter, calmer and much more chocolatey side.

makes a mean daiquiri and an even better Mai Tai
good value

Personally I felt it tasted more like a Christmas cake rather than Jaffa cake.
It was nice, but I think that if the rum was lighter (like captain Webbs, or Old J), it would let the orange flavour come through more.

Bought this as I had it in a pub in London first so I knew what I was getting. It's fine on its own but the sweetness soon dissipates leaving a slight alcohol after note. But, add cola to it and this is perfectly balanced. Super tasty and highly recommend.

Lovely tasty drop……I like mine neat with no nice and it hits the spot without being harsh.

Fantastic love love love, just get it and buy the jaffa cake vodka while your at it! Such a great kick of taste

As a primarily whisky drinker, I enjoy an occasional glass of this, and also enjoy getting friends to try it blind. when i ask them 'what does this taste of' they always get it right. Sure it's on the sweet side, and bordering on a liquer, but i like it for a change and drink it neat. I bought a bottle of Jaffa cake gin for the wife last year which is also good, and as long as you dont take either too seriously they are nice drinks to have in the cabinet.

The Jaffa Cake flavour isn't as prominent as it is with the gin, but I think it actually goes better with Rum than with Gin anyway. Very enjoyable.

Tastes absolutely nothing like Jaffa Cakes whatsoever, barely tastes of orange. Just tastes like a strong rum. Why try to lure in sweet toothed people with a quirky distinct flavour and then not deliver on it, would not recommend

Absolutely abysmal. Probably the worst rum I have ever tasted
