I found this rum in Reno, Nevada at a large liquor store that had an entire rack of it. I had never saw it before and it was from France, so I thought it would be an interesting rum to try.

I opened the bottle and out came a strong smell of an unpleasant aftershave, with a strong infusion of ginger.

The taste was a massive hit of ginger and spice, with a little brown sugar, licorice, and some lime. Surprisingly easy drinking for 42%abv, but just not great tasting to me. Way too much ginger imho. Probably intended as a mixer.

well, a lot but this is not bad, for a mixer. not so good alone. fusel aroma that hits the nose first but the ginger follows right behind with hints of spices and dark brown sugar and vanilla. not bad at all for the price.

This is a lovely rum that reminds me of a weaker rumbullion. It's a good sipper but for cost there is a lot more quality stuff Available at this price point ....

I found this rum in the Czech Republic. Knowing the previous two, I wanted to check it out. Pleasant, fruity aroma. Light amber color. Slightly sweet. Finish clearly alcoholic, bitter taste. Not good for me. Rum has disappeared from the Spytail website. Why ?

So much ginger!!!!
I tasted pepper, ginger and vanilla and was moved to take the time for an internal debate: sip this solo or dream up concoctions to highlight the delicious flavors within?
Ginger haters should skip this one.

Can’t remember where I bought this bottle. Perhaps Laka Lono? Pours orange in color. Strong aroma of ginger and cardamom. Same flavors with plenty of vanilla as well. Medium thickness to the palate with a pleasant tingling finish. Different good.

The flavor of this rum is off. It kind is tastes like it has chapstick in it

I’ve certainly had less enjoyable rums. I’m not running out to buy this again - wouldn’t be bad for a mixer in very specific cocktails.

Picked this up on clearance because of the cute submarine bottle. The ginger tastes artificial, the burn is awful, and there was a strong vibe of floor cleaner. I couldn't even use it for bananas foster because the acrid ginger was so bad. This has tainted my perception of rums coming from the French. Sorry France, this submarine should have stayed under the sea.

Pas un rhum de dégustation. Je ne crois pas que je vais l'essayer avec un coke ou un 7 Up. Ne pas le savoir avant, je n'aurais pas goûter que c'était un rhum.
