This is a decent mid-tier rum. I prefer the aged 18 or 23 year though.
Classic rum flavour. Quite rich, not a tonne of flavour but it’s enjoyable.
I had higher expectations... Not more than an ok rum...
Láhev velmi pěkná.
Rum slabší. Kromě štiplavosti na konci mi přijde nevýrazný.
Cannot find one really positive thing to say and only negative is that the aftertaste is harsh. Completely forgettable rum. Please try to find a mini 50ml bottle and sample it before dropping $35+ on this if you really want to try it. Back to edit after about a week after my first review and had to drop from a 5 to a 3. This rum has no character at all. Nice bottle and perhaps living off of a reputation and name from the past. There is no way you can tell me that they care about what goes in this bottle.
Ok K & S has gone from age stated to Reserva, Gran Reserva, Gran Reserva Superior and as far as I’m concerned it’s a downhill move to hold costs or increase profits. I’m washing my hands of K & S who did great marketing and branding so why fuck it up?
Disappointingly this promised so much but failed to deliver. I was really looking forward to tasting this effort and saved a night out for it. Alas, another samey rum with nothing to distinguish it from many, many others. I had high hopes of cardamom, oak, pineapple, not too much vanilla, something I could luxuriate around my palate and instead, well rather than prince buster I got Manfred man. I could cry!
I was expecting a little more than this K&S gave. Nice aromatics. Flavor ok, molasses rum, slight vanilla, faint spice. Above average.

A little cloying 5 out of 10
Not my preferred blend of flavors, it's a little cloying and i feel that the flavor notes can be a little too sharp and almost artificial.
