If you love natural Jamaica rums, go for it. I think it's cheap and good for the money.
There are not that much esters and it could be more complex.
It's not watery but it should have more fruit aromas in my opinion.
Maybe the dilution to 40% was not a good decision.
If you have more budged, go for Hampden Estate 8y Jamaica rum.

Smell: citrus, some ester, fermented fruits, some vanilla, oak
Taste: little bit sweet, oily, some vanilla, spice, some bitternes (oak)
Finish: middle long, citrus and bitterness (I would enjoy more fruits)

Casks: ex Bourbon casks (white oak)
Style: English, blend, pot still

Sweetness: 1.5/5
Spice: 3/5
Fruit: 3.5/5
Mildness: 3/5
Value (30€): 2.5/5

The nose on this is of bug killer. The taste is of some medicinal treatment for skin rash. This stuff is horrible. I have at least 6 Jamaican rums in library and this stuff is going down the drain. Not drinkable by me or any of my rum-guzzling friends! Avoid at all costs.

Vůně lehká technika-Jamajka, příjemně ovocná, koření, va
Chuť stejná, plus ovocný kvas, nahořklá, štiplavá
Dochuť sladce bourbonová, slabší

I can't say, that Navy Island is disgusting or awful... But it isn't close to Appleton Estate rums. This one is good and tasty rum, but harsh and heavy. At the same time this rum has incredible scent.

Navy Island XO je blendem rumů z jamajských destilerií Worthy Park, Monymusk a Hampden.
Aroma: Krásná a intenzivní vůně nahnilých banánů, medu, třtiny a lepidla.
Chuť: Trpce medová, náznaky travnatosti a decentního okořenění.
Dozvuk: Záchvěv bylin a medu - a dozvuk je pryč. Velmi krátký a mdlý.
Sladkost: 0/3
Ochutnán vzorek
Vůně je parádní, chuť taková ucházející a velmi jemná, ale dozvuk je tristně plytký a krátký. Navy Island XO se velmi podobá Single Cane Estate WP, který je však celkově o něco lepší.
Pro začátečníky může tento rum být dobrým vstupem do světa jamajských rumů, ale pro zmlsance zvyklé na plnotučnější kousky toho kromě vůně moc nenabídne.

Nothing special to sip. Lighter bodied medium sweet. Harsher edge despite saying aged rums used. Now as a mixer it's a different story. That harsh edge with some cola now becomes something special. Skip the sip and grab the mix

Rumy zrají v tropickém klimatu v sudech, ve kterých byl předtím uložen bourbon. Navy Island XO má svůdné aroma jamajských rumů a vyváženou chuť s tóny vanilky, šťavnatého zralého ovoce (banánů, pečených jablek) a karamelu. Závěr je dlouhý, harmonický a příjemně suchý.
