A fantastic rum in a spectacular bottle. The fragrance is very nice and in the mouth you can feel exotic fruits and some cinnamon. The 43 % gives it also a perfect power.
I think it can compete with Appleton 21 at an much more competitive price.

Tørr, 46% uten noe utpreget alkohol smak eller duft. Nydelig duft av fat. Tenker whisky lovers liker denne.

Nose is pleasant and mellow with tones of cream, honey and wood berries.

Taste is very spicy and peppery, but juicy as well. Otherwise its pretty ordinary but nice Bajan rum (with all the honey and wood tones). And a very dry one. I like it more than Doorlys 12. Yet that spiciness is so high (much more spicy than whisky like Talisker 10 for example), that its less of a daily sipper. I had the export 46% version. I dont expect the 43% version to be that much different though. I find more interesting taste in MGXO. And its also more enjoyable on daily basis. On the other hand at least the 46% version has more pronounced tastes of dark caramel and honey than MGXO. Its really more "in your face". If you compare the two, I would suggest drinking RL Seale after MGXO. RL Seales will overpower your tastebuds. MGXO is more pleasant and rounded. I will definitely buy another bottle of this rum.

Solid 8/10 from me! I hope, that they will ditch the stupid bottle and lower the price slightly.

P. S. I now rate this one 9/10. Its the top daily Bajan for me. MGXO is still great. But with the new bottle its less of a bargain.

Hold on to yer boots, me hearties, this rum'll knock you on your butt!

Strong vanilla/cherry/oak flavor with a big ethanol bite (and kick)! It reminds me a lot of Bayou spiced without all the spice. It has a strong oak flavor. A decent all-around non-spiced rum.

Buttery finish, with a nice subtle sweetness mid palate and easy spice that doesn’t reach a burn. Oaky barrel and molasses traces on the nose.

Easily a go-to for home cocktail enthusiasts stocking aged bajan rum, or just looking to sip a suave rum neat or on the rocks.

Edit: Tasted this against Doorly’s 8 and it’s much smoother and complex. Way less fiery on the backend, and none of the sweetness up front from the 8.

YES. YES. YES. This is what I'm talking about! Great flavor profile that hits you hard up front and carries through. Thinner mouth feel with a great alcohol burn that keeps you coming back. If I had to compare, it's like El Dorado 12 but without the buttery sugar. Great tasting rum. Did not expect how good this one is! My new favorite. Got a bottle from TW for 22.99. Cannot beat that!

Excellent nose of caramel and wood. Warm & peppery on the tongue with a dry finish.
A pure and well balanced barbadian rum.

This rum epitomizes what a fully dry, unadulterated, and well aged Bajan rum should be. Starts with a peppery spiciness, followed by notes of oak and finishes with a bouqet of caramel, vanilla, and tropical fruit. Rich, decadent, and smooth.
Milder than the Doorlys series from Foursquare, but still well balanced and complex.
This rum deserves a special spot on the shelf - preferably close to a rocks glass.

Other than Saint Nicholas Abbey 12 yr rum, MGXO has been my favorite rum from a dryness with natural sweetness at an affordable price ($50 CAD in my area). R.L. Seale 10 yr rum has been on my wish list for some time and I finally acquired two bottles and hesitated to open one as it is so difficult to locate in my area. My initial appeal was the uniqueness of the bottle which resembles a bottles that had melted from extreme heat, very cool!

First impression is the sweet smelling aroma, which I know is NOT from added sugar but rather from natural sweetness derived by the process of distillation for which Mr. Seale is known for. First taste does not disappoint, this is the way rum should taste. It does remind me a lot of the MGXO but it has its own characteristic that makes it very unique. WOW, this is a great rum!

Cannot rate this a 10 as it is not as good as the Saint Nicholas Abbey 12 yr rum but it definitely has become one of my favorite rums. This sells for $27 USD in In the US. Unbelievable.

Thank you Richard Seale.
