An overpowering aroma of cloves upon opening the bottle , you think this is too much but when sipped seems to redeem itself with a nice mouth feel and no sickly burn. Goes well with both a decent fever tree cola or ginger beer. But for me if this is a Christmas spiced rum then Rumbullion spiced beats this hands down..

I tried this at the recent Manchester rum festival and have since been and bought a bottle. It has some combination of herbs and spices that reminds me of Kinnie, which is a bitter orange Maltese drink - a bit like a soft drink version of Pimms, if you can imagine such a thing. I have made a mental note to try this with some Kinnie when I can get my hands on some. So far I have tried it with cola, and neat. The effect it has is like no other drink I have ever had, I'm sure it has some sort of magic 'relaxing' herb in there! Anyway, it's our new favourite bedtime tipple. I think it's amazing.

Cloves and more cloves is pretty much all I got from this. I really wanted to like it as it's made not far from wher ei grew up but I really couldn't get into ti, the clove was just overpowering

Not for me. Enjoy the story. Not the spiced. Woof.

Crazy spicy! Nice, but maybe too spicy for its own good. Like when you get those ginger beers which have too much real ginger, and it blows your socks off. Like that, but with spicy rum. I do like my spiced rum, but this was a bit much for me. Had to pile in a few ice cubes to take the edge off, and eventually found a good drinking balance.

At first I wasn't too sure what to make of Dark matter. At first I felt it had too much going on but after a while I have really grown fond of it.

I just love this rum. It has a very strong flavour base and is not for the faint hearted.

Took a while to get my hands on a bottle of Dark Matter and, unfortunately, the reward was sadly lacking. The shop told me that it was a little taste of Christmas and I understand what he means. It tastes incredibly harsh with undertones of cloves and spices. A real sipper. Maybe save for a couple of glasses at Christmas.
