Sugar Island Spiced

After a sip my first thoughts were 'smooth, not to harsh' after swishing it for almost a second the burn started to kick in. Nice nose and decent flavor. Could be a sipper if you don't mind the burn, might be best mixed with some ginger ale or sprite. I would buy it again.

I really enjoy the sweetness. A good value rum. Great for mixing.

I had to mix this with a lot of coke. Burns heavy and smells like gas. cool look of the bottle but the taste was strong!

The burn is just way too harsh! The taste is great with hints of caramel and chocolate but this could never be a sipper because its just too harsh. It does work very well with coke...as a matter a fact, it seems to get better while enjoying with coke....could be the alcohol talking. Overall I would recommend this rum as a mixer or with cola.

The taste of this rum is sweet, but it has a very sharp bite from the spice and the alcohol.

I am sure it would be great on the rocks on a warm day, but it seems more suitable as a mixer. Definitely good with cola.

I wanted this rum to be good but unfortunately I didn't even find it adequate .I found it artificial tasting and bitey (if that is even a word) and harsh . Love the bottle and the artwork so instead of investing in the actual juice you'd be better off just buying a tee shirt with the coo mermaid design .

It's a clean, no drama spiced rum that tastes good and has no aftertaste.

Nose has an excessive burn. Not a sipper either, nice initial taste that is sweet and spicy but hits the back of your throat with a revenge. Mixing it is very nice; citrus cut the sweet some but brought out the sweet, coke added some body and took out the burn. Would not go out of my way to get it but at under $20 may keep a bottle around for a change.

Very enjoyable the spices are just right not over bearing and quite enjoyable. I think this could be a sipper and of course a great mixer.

Enjoyed a bottle of Sugar Island Spiced rum with my friend at the conclusion of a 5,000 mile road trip across 18 States. Unique bottle and label design for sure. Offputting artificial vanilla smell is far from pleasant. Unfortunately the taste test reveals way too sweet profile, and no burn at the end at all. Does not mix well either.
