when you base rum quality with Bacardi as standard, it just shows that you would drink anything with three letters on the label. but if you base all other rums with this one, it will make you seem like a very well versed rum taster.

the quality of the liquid itself speaks for itself. great flavor and character. if you want a great sipping rum in your cabinet, this should belong at top tier selection. toss out those mediocre rums and make this your standard rum of choice stat!

Behagelig frisk duft med noter af citrusolier og noget jeg ikke kan definere.
Smagen er dejlig sød, fed og rund i munden. Den har noter af vanilje, karamel og fad. Den er frisk uden at blive for vammel sød, hvilket jeg godt kan li, da det hurtigt kan blive for sødt. Fantastisk rom til pengene.

I think this was the result of a pissing contest between Odin and Zeus. Result 'nectar' of the gods.

For me the 12 yo is a better taste (from recollection ) in comparison to the 15 and 22 yo. Silky smooth and sweet. I know it's nit a descriptive review on flavours and textures but it gets my vote

Great rum. Aged to perfection with a smooth finish. I prefer the 12 year over the 15 year old. Much bolder flavors on the initial taste and smoother on the pallet.
