It's really not that good honestly. It's simple beyond words. Its 85% oaky 10% vanilla and some sugar and trace other things. The bottle is nice to have in the cabinet but really it's nothing special. Honestly buy 2 bottles of brugal anejo. They taste identical except brugal has a slight less oak flavour. Drinking this straight is alright. Slight burn but nothing bad. Honestly Brugal is made in Dominican Republic and so is this. It would be no surprise to me if this was made in the same place using the same formula as brugal just in a different cask. It might be slightly less smooth than brugal anejo. But for 20$ less I would take brugal. I also could just add sugar to my brugal and it would be this at a large cost savings. I give it 8/10 because it's drinkable straight and I like the oak flavor but it's still nothing flashy. It's just good, not great, not memorable. Just good. Much like that movie you saw a month ago that was "good" but not that memorable, what was it's name again?

Very enjoyable rum, if you like sweet rums, you should like this one.

Edit 12/22. This rum along with several others is just to sweet for my taste now. If you prefer sweet rums, it’s a very good one. Otherwise -

Very smooth rum.

I didn't like the nose that much , but i love the taste. I love the more commercial tastes over the agricolle and this one is very sweet. Nice aftertaste. It lacks a bit complexity

Smell: Alcoholic punch in the face that fades after waiting 1 minute. Apricot and Honey (could smell orange marmalade)

Taste: Sweet, smooth finish, warming and a slight alcoholic burn, honey and apricot with notes of vanilla.

A good introduction for people new to aged rums.

One of the best value on the market.
This Rum is authentic, very balanced, sweet but not sugary...it has a lot of oak.
Stop reading reviews, just buy it !

I really enjoy this rum. I would give it a 8.5 but since that isn't available. Excellent neat or on the Rocks, don't wanna waste it with more than a splash of coke. Excellent flavor and finish. I have 100 rums in my cabinet and I can pick this one out in a blind test every time.
Well worth the $ you will spend at a reasonable practical price.

Easy, with smokey oak flavours, enough sweetness and decent complexity.
