Hell and furies! This be nearly as complex and bewilderin' a rum as the amber! 'Ceptin' this one don't smell like tequila. Aye, if you sniff it long enough, she starts to smell like a traditional rum, but at first sniff, there be a bit of funk tryin' to beat the other smells back. It be a warm, sweaty, raw meat kind of funk you'd expect from a hard-workin' swab... not a fine rum. On second sniff, there be a bit of savory sweetness with oak and a hint of vanilla. On the tongue, she be not too sweet, but there be a flavor of burned sugar and black pepper. The middle be warm and invitin' with buttery, nutty, and savory spice flavors, and the finish be smooth with little burn goin' down the hatch. Sure now this be a complex and tasty rum that gets more and more tasty the more you sip. Keep this one handy, mates! arrgh!

The rum itself was okay, better mixed than straight. While the frosted bottle was a nice change from what I usually see, a busted rubber cork did not help the drinking experience.

It is great for pain killers and zombie beverages.

Although this is considered a white rum it does have a slight color to it. Sort of what water looks like with a slight mineral content. Just a hint of a straw color. Just barely. Gives it an interesting look in the frosted glass bottle. This rum is produced in the Oaxaca mountain region of Mexico and is designated by the USDA as "organic". This is a handcrafted artisanal rum produced in small batches. According to the lower yellow label my bottle was made from sugar cane harvested in 2011 and is from barrel 15-03.

The aroma reminds me of agricole rum. I am unsure if they distilled this entirely from cane juice but it wouldn't surprise me (UPDATE: Just confirmed that it is agricole rum). Has a little astringent sting to the nostrils. Nothing objectionable at all.

The flavor is surprising unharsh even though the rum has been aged a very short time in oak bourbon barrels. Just a hint of the oak is present. I do detect some sweetness and cane flavor. What is unusual is that I detect a mineral taste to it as well. Just a little that is noticeable on the finish mostly. A little fruit flavor present as well. Somewhat complex and surprisingly smooth. Although I recommend this as a mixing rum, try it neat at least once. This could be enjoyed as a sipper by some. I prefer it as a mixing rum. For me it works GREAT in Coke Zero. Good stuff. A bit exotic. And a pretty good buy. Not expensive at all.
