Interesting body with fruity taste. Kust enough sweetness and harshness.

Heel zoet met veel vanille, meer likeur dan rum...

Rhum avec du sucre ajouté (pas trop de tests sur ce rhum, mais je suspecte la vingtaine de grammes par litre) et qui se trouve plutôt couteux (40-50€).
Je ne suis en général pas trop contre le rhum sucré à une certaine limite quand il apporte autre chose que le sucre. Ici ce n'est pas le cas, c'est un bonbon liquide, pas un rhum, j'irai même jusqu'à dire que ça me fait penser à certains sirops pour la toux.
Bref à ce stade là, on sent le cache misère dont on ne devrait pas s'attendre à ce prix.
Il est possible de l'apprécier, mais pas de le conseiller.

I would doubt its real aged rum, but it just tastes good. Understandable that many rum lovers dislike it.

Eye: bronze
Nose: cacao and sacher torte
Mouth: pastissery, cinnamon, strong vanilla and cacao. Sweet flowers also. Rounded and delicate

Smells like some kinda kiddie sweets - maybe it's just the sweet volitiles on the top notes, but they taste saccharine and artificial to me, and they overpower all the other flavours.

Tastes like that. Vanilla, processed flavouring, kiddie boiled sweets. These may not be added at all, but the impression I get is they filled the barrel with boiled sweets!

Got given a sample. Had two sips. Then I've smelt it again, and the rest is going down the sink.

Tastes fake, like a bunch of E numbers. Gross. I just couldn't do it

A very nice sweet with a banana like date like aftertaste. A good sipper if you like a sweet drink.
Excellent with coke, it brings out nice vanilla notes.
It is quite mild with little burn.

Trochu zklamání, čekal jsem víc.
Hodně sladký rum s výraznou vanilkovou vůni i chuti. Cítil jsem i třešně. Velmi krátký dojezd chuti

Reviews suggested it's like marmite, love it or hate it. I wouldn't say I hate it, but it's not good. Aroma is sweet and chemical, like banana toffee sweets. Taste is syrup, vanilla syrup, banana syrup, and some sort of chemical. Aftertaste of burnt rubber and banana syrup, but doesn't last long

Could possibly work in a sweet cocktail
