Stroh 160 Overproof Rum

Stroh 160 Overproof Rum is an 80% ABV (160 proof) Austrian spiced rum from STROH in Klagenfurt — the strongest, most aromatic expression of the brand, made in Austria's Inländer Rum tradition with butterscotch-and-vanilla character from traditional essences. This is a working spirit for the bar and the kitchen: flambé, baking, hot drinks, and high-proof cocktails — not a neat sipper at full strength. A 750mL bottle. Order overproof rum online at Del Mesa Liquor, San Diego, CA.

160 Proof of Austrian Fire

Landlocked Austria never had rum colonies, so it invented its own rum: the Inländer tradition, built on traditional essences for that signature butterscotch-and-vanilla character. Stroh 160 is the tradition at maximum — 80% ABV of warm cinnamon, baking spice, and buttery vanilla, with a fiery cinnamon-and-pepper palate and a long, powerfully warming finish. Bartenders float it on Zombies and set Feuerzangenbowle alight with it; pastry chefs call it indispensable for apple strudel, kaiserschmarren, and rum baba. (Outside the US it's labeled Stroh 80 — same bottle, ABV designation.) Find more Stroh spirits or browse the full rum collection.

Tasting Notes

Warm cinnamon, baking spices, and buttery vanilla on the nose. Concentrated vanilla-caramel sweetness on the palate gives way to fiery cinnamon, crushed almonds, and peppery spice; long, powerfully warming finish with lingering butterscotch.

How to Enjoy

A little goes a long way: splash into hot drinks and chilled cocktails, fold into fruit bowls and batters, or flambé — it ignites cleanly. Handle with respect; this is not a sipping rum at full strength.
