As of may 2017 this is my new fav!!!! and my current sipper on ice. I'm getting closer to finding the pet sipper. I'm a total amateur at this but I'm getting lots of brown sugar and real caramel on the noise and on the pallet. It smells like lots of other aged rum, sweet but goes down super smooth. Love it. Can't wait to try the 15yr then the 25yr

Quite similar to Malteco 10Y or 15Y. Very good choice.

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

Very sweet and tasty, recommended for cocktails. But alone will satisfy you as well.

I really enjoy this rum. It is my go to when I want a treat. Any other rum is judged against this. I have tried some other but for the money this is the real deal.

When I first tasted this I thought it was a bit short on the aftertaste. Then I realised it was that smooth. Fairly sweet and that's something coming from me who is keen on the sweet stuff. Can only drink one per night as I'm too greedy so use a mixer mostly. But not with this one. Oh no.
