Cane Run Number 12

Crystal clear in color and very little smell. Maker is right that this is smooth and honestly could be sipped but ideal in your classic drinks like a coke. Worth the less expensive price

I'm not familiar with the #12 classification, but this review is for Cane Run light rum: my personal go-to rum for the perfect Mojito.

nose - vanilla
taste - grassy, vanilla, light, almost no burn

I'm a novice tikiphile. In my opinion, the Jamaican + Agricola (more generally, sugar cane rum) combo in a Mai Tai taste the best. I've done a blind taste test, this rum versus Clement Select Barrel in Mai Tai's. Both my wife and I said the both taste very similar. Find the Cane Run version was more grassy and the Clemete version had a rosy taste. So if your looking to make budget friendly Mai Tai's, try this with some J Wray Gold.

Filler/base rum for mixed drinks.

a flavorful donQ, light burn smell nose, clean crisp rum with a slight burn and a slight spice. Good for mixing a bit boring neat

Light, almost tastes like watered down vodka. No rum taste when tried on the rocks.

This is a very light, fruity, semi-sweet rum. It's not amazing. It's good enough to enjoy drinking it, but just barely.

A little harsh nose. Sweet with bananas. Not overpowering. Not a great rum but works for a daiquiri.

Sugar: 0 GPL but you’ll need a sweet mixer to drink it. I had this at a liquor store tasting stand and it’s a cheap and cheerful rum. Tastes and smells a bit like vodka and gin mixed with fresh distilled rum. It’s drinkable with a mixer. I have tasted worse.

No bones about it, this not be a sippin' rum. She has very little smell with barely a hint of sweet and a lot of alcohol. Not a terrible aroma! As flavor goes, there be barely a hint of sweet, but there also be the slightest hint of either vanilla or caramel - hard to tell - with an even smaller hint of fruit. She be confusingly smooth given the burn that follows... all the way down the hatch. Devil a doubt, but this rum would be a good startin' point for a more flavorful, spicier rum. If this be their 12th blend, I would be interested in seein' what lucky 13 had to offer... arrgh!

Bottle purchased at Cornhusker Beverage. Clear. Aroma of bananas and acetone. Slightly grassy but that’s subtle. Flavor is candy sweet with a bolus of banana emerging mid palate. I’ve had far worse. Burning tingle finish.
