Not to be had alone, itโ€™s ok in cocktails but all the promise of interesting aromas leads to disappointment when actually drinking it. Color is nice, aromas are complex with vanilla as the lead, but it never comes through on the palate. Unwanted grassiness and imbalance are the primary attributes. I really wanted to like it.

Great rum that packs a strong punch from higher abv. Carmel, oak, spice, allbalanced perfectly. Amazing job

This is my favorite rum of all time. As of this moment... Ohio has stopped selling this rum. Shame.

Remember not everyone's tastings are the same. I rated this low because I couldn't get any real flavors from it.

Not a highlight of my night, a bit rough for the list.

It's a young rum and it's 49% abv, so it's harsher than other rums in it's price range. But for as light as it is, it offers a lot of complexity with notes of grass and salt air.

Hits hard with a sharp clean aroma but finishes smooth. A fantastic mixer, one of the best with Coke, that carries its own through the entire drinking experience. I like this rum and believe it is a staple for the true rum fan...

The smell is dangerously smooth. The flavors are very subtle with a pleasant viscosity that feels syrupy without being too sweet

A bit strong straight up, but it mixed okay. I will give it some more time (and tastes) and adjust the rating as appropriate. A 5.5 on my scale..

The 49%abv makes this pretty bitey, but the flavor is still very good. It's a little dryer than most, but still has some sugar, honey, and vanilla to it. The spice is very interesting.

A bit spicy up front, get some barrel flavors, had it neat but I usually like ice but overall an excellent rum.
