Rigtig flot mørk farve uden at være tilsat farvestoffer eller andre tilsætningsstoffer.
Duften er meget domineret af banan og vanilje og smager følger dette efterfulgt af karamel. Næsten lidt Werthers Ægte agtig.
Bananen er meget dominerende i smag også, men jeg finder det ikke negativt for rommen - det er blot en af karaktertrækkene og noget som gør den skiller sig fra mængden.

Flasken er ekstraordinær. Rigtig oldschool pirat-look! Giver næsten et point i sig selv

A nice bottle to handle.
Smooth and sweet flavour.
Maybe a bit of to much banana..
Not bad at all

I read the ratings after I bought it. I was apprehensive upon reading that it was sweet and had “no burn whatsoever”. Well I tried it, and it DEFINITELY tastes of bananas, which seemed weird but actually tastes good. What I didn’t taste was an overwhelming sweetness, and it did have a pretty nice afterburn that doesn’t stay in the throat as long as others but long enough for me to appreciate. Overall I’d say good for variety, and probably amazing in a rum based tropical cocktail.

interesting rum if you're open minded, horror if you're a "purist". lots of sweetness and external flavors. for the bartender a great rum to experiment with. out of the box rum, just different.

Extremely sweet rum, with too many added flavors, rather some juice

Different from other rums, the aroma of bananas is really strong.
Not a rum to drink often but nice as a different flavour.

Nice color and I really enjoy the subtle after taste of banana. Excellent rum for after a meal.

Bought this based on great reviews and because the bottle looked awesome. Bottle is indeed awesome and rum inside decent. Is it worth upwards of £30? Probably not. But drank well and enjoyed. £20 rum in a £30 bottle

Een redelijke rum maar niet spectaculair. Hij heeft een vrij zoete geur en hele zoete smaak

The nose is very banana with some vanilla and toffee. The taste is less banana, very sweet, with toffee and vanilla. The added spices are well blended in and don’t assault the palate. Overall, a nice rum based liqueur for expensive cocktails.

Now I am rating this one with a bit of bias to it, but I do thoroughly enjoy this rum, as well as the XO version. I am the only one in my family whose liquor of choice is rum, most prefer whiskey or vodka. That said this was my first experience of drinking a good rum. My brother bought this for himself and when I had a taste it opened the door of rum to me, before this my only experiance with rum was Captain Morgans spiced rum. It was a sweet, soothing taste that I had never experianced before. I prefer this rum clean or on the rocks, but I have yet to put it in a mixer besides coke before. I would buy this again, even though I have since found many better rums.
