You get beautiful presentation for a bottle but you expect that for something if this price.
Color: is a medium brown.
Smell: some where between Melaluka honey & Toffee and a touch earthy.
Taste: Burnt toffee, some spice yet smooth.

Now we're talking: complex, hints of caramel, fruit (orange?), botter, silky taste, hints of oak/wood, humus, spices... This one is a favorite one of mine, up till now;..
Ich durfte den Rum im zuge eines Dom. Rep. Urlaubs testen. Ich war sehr überrascht wie mild er doch ist. Ein Rum mit wenig süsse aber dennoch sehr angenehm.

Tenía bastante espectativa por este ron, por ser Dominicano, por el precio y por la presentación. Bastante flojito, sabor bastante tosco. Dificilmente se disfruta en las rocas, demasiado sabor a madera.

Recently on a trip to the Bahamas I had the opportunity to try RBIPB and concluded there are those who'll like it to no end but I thought it was extremely harsh with a burning aftertaste. It's not bad and in the right circumstance it could add depth to some cocktails but at its price I'll pass.

This is a premium rum with a premium price but it's not that great and sadly disappointed ... This did not taste like a 30 year rum at all

A special rum for my 300th
9
/10
out of 10
This is my 300th rating on RumRatings (I've rated rums from the exquisite to the vile) so I'm taking the opportunity to rate a very special rum I purchased several months ago. To get me in the mood, I'm listening to Bahamian music via http://www.portnassauwebcam.com/ (you can also listen to the music directly from the radio station at https://www.bahamianornuttin.com/) and watching live video of the Port of Nassau.
Now let's begin...
First off, this rum has a rich mahogany turning to an amber on the edges. Swirling the rum in my snifter reveals excellent legs. The aroma is fantastic. It's flavor is complex with an oakiness from tannins and I get the taste of vanilla, toffee, spicy pepper, black cherry, and a slight wine flavor. It has a bit of a bite to it due to the 43% ABV (86 proof) but the burn fades quickly leaving a finish of the oak tannins as well as the vanilla & toffee. This an awesome rum that I believe would be appreciated by those who enjoy bourbon as well as hardcore rum aficionados. Each bottle is hand-numbered. My bottle is # 2072 and was bottled in 2014. This rum is pricey but worth it and should only be consumed on special occasions. Like a 300th rating.
Now I'm going to kick back with another snifter of the rum while listening to Bahamian music. Have a good night, folks.
[NOTE: To those who ask why I don't rate it a 10. Well to me, a 10 means a PERFECT rum and I do not believe such a rum exists. The late, great Vince Lombardi once said, “Gentlemen, we will chase perfection, and we will chase it relentlessly, knowing all the while we can never attain it. But along the way, we shall catch excellence.” And that sums up my personal philosophy for rum.]
