As with all rums that come in novelty bottles, I wasn't expecting much (especially after being burned by the $45 usd Pumpkin Face "Premium" white rum...).

I expected to have a few sips with some rum imbiber friends, have a few laughs at those few sips, then dump the rest of the bottle in a summertime Punch/Sangria at the next family BBQ and then just keeps the bottle as a display piece for the next TIKI night.

What I found was a NICE lightly spiced rum that is easy to drink.
Okay, that being said, I know it won't replace the Appleton Estate Exclusive or the Dos Maderas Luxus as my top 2 sipping rums, but I won't be hiding it from my guests that know I'm a serious rum amateur either.

I has a well marked pepperiness that will make (daytime) cocktails linger in your mouth without overpowering all the other ingredients; it's slightly sweet but not syrupy ; it was a hint of sugar cane but reminds me more of Cachaça than something made with molasses.

All in all, not a bad rum ...and it even comes in a pretty remarkable container.

Cool bottle, mediocre rum. Harsh burn with little flavor and no complexity.

The taste of the alcohol is a to much present for me. Not a complex taste. Not worth the price.

Small hints of leather and caramel, but the taste is very soft, as is the aftertaste

Wasn't expecting much of this rum, the bottle is really nice.
Nose: very interesting actually, feels like a rhum agricole or leaning that way, very floral and herbal.
Taste: a bit disappointing on the taste, was expecting more herbal flavor after the nose.
Finish: the aftertaste is better, definitely feels a bit like a rhum agricole.
Overall good price for a nice looking and sturdy bottle. The rum is not the best but can go well with some cocktail.

I love the bottle this rum comes in, but inside the contents were lacking. I ended up using it as a mixer for a generic rum to go through it.

Avis novice: achat compulsif, pour le look de la bouteille. Ce rhum m'a ouvert la porte au monde du rhum :).
Gustativement abordable pour 1 palais novice, plutôt sec

My purchase was solely for the Bottle. Once I picked it up I knew it was top quality packaging. So upon tasting I loved the aroma, color and legs. Truly a beautiful sipping rum

This turned out to essentially be an expensive plant pot for me. Much like the kraken, but more expensive and worse tasting, this is solely the success of marketing.
Probably one of my least favourite rums ever.

So I heard so many mixed reviews - I had to get a bottle to try. It makes an interesting Old Fashioned. I used Cardamom Bitters and Chocolate Bitters, a half oz Rock Syrup , 2 oz rum. I’m surprised how smooth it is.
