Banks 7 Golden Age rum is created from a combination of 23 rums from around the world, including Panama, Barbados, Trinidad, and others. The rums are aged between 1-7 years in ex-Bourbon casks.
The Banks name is derived from explorer Sir Joseph Banks, who sailed with the famous Captain James Cook in the 1700s.

I have been a fan of the 5 islands (white) rum for a while, this was pretty much what I expected with some aged components blended in. Again the Batavia arrack component lands a degree of funkiness that makes this one unique. Dry and spicey, with a good deal of clove flavor I have found in some other blended rums such as Scarlet ibis.

I had a higher expectation for this one. Too strong of an afterburn. No particular flavor either straight or mixed.

Smells and tastes of molasses, oak, spice (pepper), and walnuts. A bit dry, but still has a touch of sweetness.
A very good rum, especially for a gold rum.

Mellow, toffee, sweet, a hint of wood and a little bit spicy. Most likely there`s sugar added to the rum but I don`t know.

Tasted at Laka Lono 4/3/22 as a pairing with the Banks 5.
This "international blend" is not as sweet as its sibling, though it does hold onto its flavor. Still a good rum, I just prefer the Banks 5.
Like a trip around the world- multiple rum styles blended into a smooth, shippable golden rum.

Tasted at Laka Lono on 12/17/19. Pours dark amber. Bananas and acetone. Brown sugar. Palate is a bit harsh. Mild in flavor. A so-so rum.

In a bar at Parsons Green and it was good to see a selection on the shelf. Never had this rum before, plenty of vanilla not a lot of fire

Great complexity on the nose as it changes from time to time and reminds me of quite a number of rums.
Butterscotch, Salted caramel, toffee and with lots of sweets spices. Mild sour berries and unripe mango. The let down will be the slight burn on nose with strong ethanol.
Sweets spices on the first sip: vanilla, anise and woody. Dried apricot, unripe peach and light touch of funk towards the end.
Finish of chocolate bar with dried raisins and macadamia nuts. Alcohol tends to be on the strong side which numb the tongue altough it's bottled at 43% abv.
