Cayman Reef Double Black

Not a spiced rum--just aged in double charred oak barrels. It's difficult to pick out any particular flavors. I want my rum for sipping neat and this one's got the minimum qualities.

Nice tasting rum coming out through the aging in the charred barrels. Semi sweet with some spicy notes to complement each other. I have tried this rum neat and find it has a distinct flavor that is somewhat enjoyable, especially for the reasonable price tag. I am sure that the double black would do well in cocktails as well.

This rum is basically the same as the other caymans but, this ones a bit stronger and much darker. It was a steal at $15, I would consider buying at $20. Good for mixing with cola or (my favorite) a slurpee from 7/11.

I asked for it and I found it. I am still warming up to this rum. It is definitely dark in colour, not sure the flavour matches up. It smells a bit sweeter than it tastes, not sure if they use cherrie barrels but it has a hint of that kind of flavor to me. Definitely some oak flavour which I like in a rum. I was expecting a bit more molasses flavour but didn't get that much. I may stick to Cruzan Black and possibly mix it. The bottle itself has a great shape and will look good on the bar so I am pleased with the purchase overall.
