Parrot Bay Passionfruit
Fruit Liqueurs — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed
October 31, 2022 (edited March 26, 2023)
Nose: A sweet, vaguely fruit-like smell that could be almost anything but by the power of suggestion faintly resembles passionfruit.
Palate: Extremely sweet, both from the amount of sugar in this liqueur and the sweetness of the fruit flavouring itself. Chemicals – this actively tastes like something concocted in a lab more than it does any sort of fruit.
Finish: Not short enough. The lingering saccharine sweetness of the flavouring compound sullies the taste buds.
It appears that there are many Parrot Bay bottlings available in different parts of the globe. This review relates specifically to a passionfruit flavoured “malt beverage” that is sold in Australia (and perhaps other areas).
This is not Parrot Bay flavoured rum. It is something like a cross between flavoured vodka and flavoured moonshine. It is very sweet, low proof and is properly classified as a liqueur, not a spirit.
It is by far the least enjoyable of the four Parrot Bay … substances … I have just endured.
For more details about this range of Parrot Bay liqueurs that is exploiting the reputation (?) of Parrot Bay rum, see my review of Parrot Bay Coconut.
