Great looking bottle, love the colour of the rum. It's a sweeter one, I find it sips well later at night as a night cap. But more than two glasses will get a bit heavy. I believe it to be good value if you are looking for a sipper.

Smells and tastes of Banana. Not too sweet. Nice rum finish. Easy sipper

Sweet and tasty. It something else. Not a really great rum - BUT - it is interesting. Lots of banana and vanilla. Would recommend to try it if you are up for some long lasting sweetness

Very sweet, strange candy, banana and citrus sweetness, not entirely bad but comes with a weird aftertaste and smell, has some notes of rum actually being inside but still not sure… ladies did enjoy it. Slightly better than Don Papa for me.

This rum is a really good one to sip or mix with soda. The bottle makes it stand out as if it were a much higher priced rum so if you are looking to impress your friends, this is the rum to buy. I will say I have never been disappointed in the taste of this rum

Taste like candy. Spiced fruits with caramel. Not so strong. I it is a pity, taste very nice, but for better rating should stronger and less sweet.

An exceptional rum with hints of banana and cane sugar, quite flavorful and rewarding.

If they made an air freshener I would buy it. Easy nose that’s complex. Banana, toffee, vanilla are the big 3 notes. Not spicy whatsoever, smooth and sweet from start to finish. You can tell it’s a seasoned/modified rum but it’s still an easy drinker. No ice required. I agree with someone else who said it was a hipster rum. Not really with the hipster thing, but a damn good starter rum for someone that’s never had one neat before. I wish it was 80proof here in the usa. To me it would be perfect if it was 84-90proof.

It smells like crumble and taste like apricot pie. And it is super sweet. I enjoyed that.. I believe that there are occasions for this kind of rum. Ladies will love it!

Good filler for the cabinet. Slightly better in my opinion than Kraken. But you pay for the improvement
