Alkohol: 35 %
Původ: Barbados
Aroma: Čerstvý banán politý medem a ozdobený vanilkou. Vůně ne zrovna běžná, ale ta banánová složka se mi líbí. K tomu sladké svěže působící koření. Voní dobře, ale ne úplně přirozeně. (84 b)
Chuť: Olejnatý na jazyku, hodně sladký. Sladké banány. Dochuť je největší slabinou, je krátká, prázdná. (80 b)
Body: 82/100
Shrnutí: Působí celkově uměle, až pouťově. Ale není to až tak strašlivě chemické a umělé jako třeba Redrum, to zase ne. Banánová složka byla fajn, zbytek už mě tolik neoslovil, nepůsobí na mě jako seriózní rum. Spíš jako pití pro babičky nebo naopak mladé holky na baru. Kolem tohoto rumu je spousta marketingových keců, které jim po ochutnání ale nebaštím. Navíc cena nějakých 900-1000 korun je snad vtip. Dobrá past na kavky. Za desetinu ceny zkuste Božkov Zimní speciál, velký rozdíl mezi nimi nevidím. Ochutnán vzorek koupený v českolipském baru Egypt.

I find this rum smooth and enjoyable. Sure it not a top rated expensive rum. But it mellow enough to sip and lovely to use as a mixer.

I am quite surprised at the absolute snobbery seen in these threads. Is this a premium rum? No. Is this sweet? Yes. Is there strong hints of vanilla and fruit? Yes. Is it a liqueur more than a drinking rum? Probably. Would I serve this and pass it off as top shelf? No damn way, the gimmicky bottle gives it away. Is it fun, easy drinking, and a way to get the less tipple-trendy people a way to have a sip that won't make them spit it out? Yes. Will the rum connoisseur spit it out, roll his eyes, and feign grievous injury and insult to his haughty and pretentious pallette? Hell yes, and it will be fun to watch the antics just before you slap his prideful, pompous, petty personality back to earth!! Enjoy it for what it is, don't expect more, and pour it over ice cream...giggling while your betwixed and bemused friend balls up in pain! :)

Taste just like a desert your grandmother would make. Great flavor and good to drink however you like it.

This one has become the sipping rum in the family, even my 99 year old granny loves it, it's so smooth and flavorful that is easy to love, great on the rocks, good for cocktails too

Very sweet rum, significant banana flavor with a caramel undertone. Nice bottle. Highly recommend it to women's.

Only tried as a sipping rum so far. It is smooth with hints of vanilla and caramel. Some reviews object to the amount of banana and having read that I expected to be disappointed, but no! The banana is not overpowering and does not detract from the flavour. I enjoyed my first glass and will now try it as a cocktail base.

Does not taste bad, but in my eyes the "rum" taste is to much in the background, the taste of fruits is too strong

Deze rum is goe voor mensen die niets van rum kennen. Suiker bom
