I hadn't heard of this one, but it was the "Staff Favorite" at Total Wine. As soon as I opened the bottle, I could smell the chocolate and caramel notes without coming near the glass. With the first sip, the sweetness hits the front of your tongue. There's a little burn to let you know this is a 94 proof (not the 70 proof you often see in a spiced rum). With an ice cube, it settles down a bit, but still too sweet for my tastes. Good for a sweeter rum & coke or a mudslide type cocktail, but not a sipper.

My gf has settled on this as her go to so I drink it most exclusively. It's grown on me for sure.

I purchased a mini bottle of this to try before buying a large bottle. It is 94 proof; however It has an excellent taste. There's a caramel taste with othe fruity notes.

Tasted in the Forbidden Hole August 18, 2023
Appearance: this is a dark amber rum
Aroma: vanilla, perhaps some cloves. If this was my 7th rum I might smell banana and misery.
Flavor: this rum hurts me. Tastes like cough syrup in the worst possible way. Not fun like Cheerwine. This is horrible.

In the nipper bottle from Total Wine for $0.99 cents. Pours dark brown with golden notes on light reflection. Aroma of black pepper and makes me cough. Maple, coffee, chocolate and vanilla flavors. Burning unpleasant finish makes me think this is hotter than 80 proof. This rum is way overrated at 6.5 average. Mix in Coke if thatโ€™s your thing.

Ok spice rum from Kentucky; price point makes you want to give it a try.

Mixes well.
Average price.

Very sweet rum, yet spiced well. If you are into dessert rums, this may be a good option for you. Can be sipped over ice in a pinch, but is better as a mixer for dark and stormy.

Very affordable, smooth, strong, and an all around enjoyable spiced rum that's good for mixing or sipping.

This was recommended to me by two people so I gave it a try...it's a comfortable mixer (though quite sweet) and outstanding in a hot buttered rum. To me the spice is not overwhelming at all, I get a nice taste and smell of vanilla, some caramel and little else. It doesn't pretend to be sophisticated and is popular with young partiers. I'm an old man, but I killed off a bottle in a fairly short time and might even buy another. Not exceptional but decent for the "spiced rum" category, which mostly sucks.

not bad aroma and nice dark amber color but that is where it pretty much ends. I did not try as a mixer and maybe that is my fault but neat or on the rocks this spiced rum is just way to artificial tasting for me and 47% abv is just a little over the top for me. If I want a spiced rum I'll stick with Foursquare spiced or Brinley. I am happy I only bought 2 tiny 50ml bottles to try it for a couple bucks. And I thought Bumbu was a sugar bomb! This stuff is nuclear compared to Bumbu.
