pgrahmm Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 I'm a rum & coke guy....In Big C & Lotus there's a white rum marketed as Uncle Tom.... It's in a square shaped bottle.... I find it smooth, with a good taste.... They market 3 products, I just look for the square bottle with a red R label....It's 279B, so an easy taste test to see if it agrees with you..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CecilM Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 Since my picture was removed, but none of the others… text only: Look out for the ‘blue label’ Sang Som. It is very decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natway09 Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 Hong Thong is not rum. It is blended spirits which in Thailand would be rice based, with flavour added. Sangsom is a fairly light rum, as stated made from molasses which in turn is a product resulting from the process of refining sugar. It is not your real dark rum colour but drinks OK with a mixer. Bundaberg (an Australian rum) is also not very dark but a good distinctive taste. All spirits when distilled have no colour. They are all clear. Colouring can be from used barrels imparting colour over time as in real scotch. I suspect the Sangsom colour is added as barrel time would be limited & also a distinctive taste of it's own 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the owner of the distillery says it is made with molasses, I tend to believe him. http://www.interbevgroup.com/brands-spirits-hongthong.php Smooth and easy drinking, Hong Thong is a golden spirit made from molasses at the renowned Bangyikhan Distillery near Bangkok. The name 'Hong Thong' translates into 'Golden Phoenix'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
