Per the reviews on this site, I picked up a bottle for about 45 bucks. The initial feeling is smooth followed by a full tongue burn that nicely lingers after you are done with your sip. Nice mellow and balanced flavors. You can taste the bourbon notes. The first sip is really wonderful. A great bottle for those who appreciate aged rum.

Good rum, enjoyable. One I always keep on hand in the cabinet. Probably my favorite.

Picked this one up not knowing much about it and really like it. Have been drinking it neat and as a choice for a rum old fashioned.

This is my go to rum. A single ice cube and this is sweet, smooth, and truly the most enjoyable rum I’ve experienced so far.

Na nose i v chuti znatelný bourbon. Velký elegán mezi sladšími rumy.

A nice rum, someone else here described it good, where sweet rum drinkers start mellowing out a bit. It is still quite a sweet rum, with lots of caramel, vanilla, brown sugar, raisins and some light chocolate, but also has some oak to it. Good flavours and well balanced.

If I had to pick one favorite rum to drink for all times this would be it. Super smooth and nice flavors.

This is definitely tasty and I appreciate the bourbon-like caramel nose, but not much happens on the finish other than a sustained sweetness with little evidence this has spent 21 years in a barrel. It's solid, but I expected more.

Only giving this a 7. It's decent, but for 21 years old? I guess I expected a lot more, especially given the hype. There are a lot of rums less than this one, even half this price, that I like a lot better. It opens up with time and has a decent flavor overall, right level of sweetness (for me), interesting - but lacked overall complexity. Nice thing, not overly woody. For the price, I won't be buying it again. I'm bummed out about it! I don't know that I'd ever splurge on the 30-year one now.

You hear people talking about this rum like it’s the best. You try it and is good, really good. However it doesn’t quite live up to the hype. Very good sipping rum.

This is a good rum but, it is too Bourbon-y for me with big oaky wood notes...
There is unfortunately, a huge trend in finishing a lot of different kinds of liquor in Bourbon barrels... I do not understand this because, I think it ruins a lot of liquor...
