Nice Jamaican rum, notes of vanilla and ripe bananas. Quite some esthers but not over-bearing. No added sugar or anything, but still surprisingly smooth. Looking forward to try more rums from Mezan! :)

Meget lys i farven. Overdreven duft af fermenteret frugt, blandt andet banan. Man får lyst til at holde sig for næsen og frygter det er en ny White overproof. Smagen er heldigvis bedre. Utrolig tør, som desværre tager fokus. Eftersmagen er peber og måske en anelse banan. Tørheden ødelægger desværre oplevelsen, men den er heldigvis bedre end duften lægger op til. (6. December 2018 i MacY)

Trop léger. Peu concentré. Pas mauvais mais un peu cher. 40€.

This is a rum that any tequila or mezcal drinker will love. Peppery, pungent, citrusy, unsweetened, very light color. Fun!

I was very suprised with this one. Very nice pure exotic taste, that colour ect.
Light yet rough, very suprising.
Truly one of a kind rum that someday probably I will drink it again with pleasure. Pitty that is hard to buy in Poland.

Final verdict:
Will I buy it someday? Probably, why not.

Very fruity smell and taste of banana, but not sweet, and a slight oaky essencence. All very subtle and very sympathetic to the overall taste of a rum that does not have a lot of additives. I like bananas and believe elegance often lies in simplicity. It this case it does show. One I'll definitely be looking out for in future again.

Not terribly harsh, but the sweetness is weird - almost glue like.

Wow, after leaving the rum just sitting in the glass for a short while the smell from this rum really hit home. As time wore on the aroma permeated into the air and I love it. I think I finally understand what people mean about the funk of Jamaican rum. Anyway, the taste...

My initial thoughts were that it was clean and I understand the references to tobacco and on the swallow banana but not in an overpowering way. I tried this with cola and a slice of lime, too much coke and the unique taste is drowned but just right and you have a premium mixer. However, for myself I will generally be treating this as a sipper. There’s some alcohol burn but it’s short and adds positively to the sip.

this has a strong nose, like unaged spirits over raw peeled bananas. but the taste is surprising. the rum has a strong approach when you first sip it. it gives a strong tingle and burn, like a good whiskey. the finish is very very light. often i fall for that "darker is better" with rums and then one like this comes along and I really like it. what a lovely surprise value bottle. this makes me want to try all the different mezan blends.

I didnt hear about this rum before I've seen it in the shop. It cost about 30$ so I decided to try. It tirned out very intresting rum with very unexpecting taste. It wasnt so heavy like classic jamaican rum but with its own "funk" taste. It excellent neat with no ice.
