unlike the others, i dont mind the orange and all the shades of the taste there, its rather different from what i have had. Juicy and fruity, its somewhat weird to say when comes to alcohol, at the begining it had strong taste but then fruity flavours appeared and kept it till the end. I would call it sweet. Also strange/unique combination is with coke, not exactly i could directly describe, still eligible for drink shots too.

I try to keep this around as my drinking rum it what I have when I am just wanting a drink or three. Nice Amber color with a smooth finish. Hints of Orange and spice

We all know that Pyrat marketing has been phenomenal, but does the rum live up to the renown? That depends.

Many people depend on this rum to be one of their only stocked rums - and what a shame that would be.

This is a niche rum. Part Bacardi, part Grand Marnier, with an odd rush of overwhelming orange nearly rendering the underlying complexity imperceptible, or worse, irrelevant.

Because of its uniqueness and compatibility with citrus juices, stock it in a deep collection for its wonderful oddness - but certainly don't make this a mainstay until you've stocked Flor de Cana and younger Angosturas for cocktails.

i got a deal on this rum and gave it a try. Not bad but I mostly use it for mixed drinks, not straight up. Decent nose but nothing special.

Does havr a strong orange flavor, not unpleasent, finishes with some heat and altogether a nice experience.

Pleasant and smooth but with definite orange flavor.

Its very good but honestly, if I am going to spend the money, I would rather spend the extra five and get a bottle of Cruzan Single Barrel. I am hoping try the Pyrat Cask 1623 someday.

Pyrat rum does bite. I find it very rough. Citrus taste and strong..I'll pass...

Très chouette rhum pour pas cher et assez différents.

Une odeur et un goût d'agrume avec un retour typique de rhum.

Limite proche d'un grand Marnier avec le caractère caramel d'un rhum classique.

Déroutant mais sympa, maintenant faut pas être gêner par ce côté zeste...

Assez grande déception pour ce rhum qui a clairement un goût d'orange synthétiques (rappelle les médicaments à l'orange).

This is a smooth and unusual rum for me, the citrus flavor overwhelmed everything, very different to the rum flavors I go for. Would not be surprised if someone gave this to me blind and said it was a orange derived liqueur. The packaging is neat but I probably won't be restocking this till Xmas!
