Its not bad at all, maybe not quite my style but you can taste the quality.

All in all very balanced but lacks a special twist.

I like it, well balanced, fruity, smooth and dry. Nice present for your friends, but I will try another next time.

I had the chance to try this on vacation in Barbados and really enjoyed it. On the nose there is a lot of oak, molasses and spices. On the palate there are small hints of fruit and vanilla. This rum has no added sugar so you might think it is reminiscent of either a cognac or whiskey on the finish. Overall it's not a bad rum. It is not too bad in a rum and coke either. If you like it sweet, this is not for you, but if you like that strong oak finish, I say go for it.

I guess you could call this an every day sipper. It tasted artificial ily sweet to me. There is much better out there.

Good balanced rum. It will go well with a quality Cuban cigar.

Barbadian rums can perform and this one can hold its own with most

Smells like vanilla, oak, and maybe a bit of light spice. Tastes like a light and balanced rum with maybe a hint of chocolate and dark fruit.
