A clean and rich aftertaste mixed with a good amount of oaky flavor.

Heavy, smooth, sweet and spicy. On the palate it tastes like Christmas with raisins and oriental spices. Can't get much better for the money. One point gets substracted for adding too much sugar.

The smell is relative neutral and does not have the strong caramel smell of the 3-8 year. A great taste with a nice smooth finish and pleasant long after taste.

Een lekkere rum zeker het geld waard wou dat ik meer had gehaald
Great rum for on the rocks. Averagely smooth. Also a great mixer. Good gift as an introduction to the Guyana rum without being too expensive.
