I bought this on the recommendations of several people I know in real life. The bottle has great presentation and looks appealing.

I was excited to try a new rum and I was seriously disappointed with this one. In fact, I wouldn’t call it rum at all. It has a very chemical taste. It’s sweet but with no definable flavors and the aftertaste is horrible. So bad in fact, I needed to wash the taste out with some good rum.

If this was the only rum available I’d pick any other alcoholic beverage first. Moral of the story? Find people here who’s ratings you trust and research before buying. I’ll give this back to the store if the guy wants it. I wouldn’t even give this to guests unless I didn’t like them :)

Vry heavy flavor notes of brown sugar and vanilla & Banana, very smooth, easy to mix or have on its own. Go to at stores.

And a delicious taste. It was on offer and I'm glad I had an opportunity to buy this.

a gave this one as a present to a friend and to be honest when i took a smell i was a little embarassed. holy shit, it smelled like a box of candy... fortunately it didn‘t taste as bad but still way too much sugar and unnatural banana taste... if you like candysticks this might be something for you...

Probably one of the better mixing rums there is. almost any casual person will enjoy however borders on the edge of being a liqueur rather than a true Rum. Be warned it is EXTREMELY sweet and syrupy. So if that is not your cup of tea steer clear.

This was sweeter than I was expecting but not so much that it ruins the taste, a nice rum to sip neat over ice and also mixes well with coke.

Sweet and easy to drink. I tried it in Jamaica for the first time and it’s different than other rums I’ve had before.

Pretty good. Maybe a little too sweat. Strong caramel notes with a hint of vanilla.
