Stroh Original Rum 50 cl 60%

The 60% edition is Stroh's answer for those who want the fire in the glass without quite losing their breath. Still red, still Austrian, just made for drinking.

Expert description

Stroh Original 60% is a Rum from Austria, bottled at 60%, a milder version of the iconic Austrian brand intended for drinks and cocktails rather than pure baking.

Stroh was founded in 1832 by Sebastian Stroh in Klagenfurt and is known for its powerful, red bottles. Where the 80% edition is primarily a kitchen tool, the 60% strength is made to be consumed more directly, in hot drinks like Jagertee and Punsch or in cocktails where Stroh's characteristic caramel and spice profile is wanted without the extreme strength.

Sweet caramel and burnt sugar, more approachable and less sharp than the 80% edition.

Round and lingeringly sweet, with a hint of spice.
