had this rum recently
The Duppy Share Caribbean rum is produced using a combination of 3-year Jamaican and 5-year Barbados rums. Both are aged in bourbon barrels and brought to London for bottling.
The name 'Duppy Share' comes from Caribbean folklore where the dark spirit 'duppies' take their share of rum from distilleries, similar to the traditional term 'angel’s share' when rum is lost due to evaporation during the aging process.

Very nice classic Caribbean rum. Straight, with ice, and or mixer.
Ok but not my favourite so far. Easy drinking, smooth with a mixer.

Tried this as a sipping rum but doesn’t quite cut it I’m afraid- for the price you’d expect it would. Lovelly nose, hint of pineapples; however taste leaves a bit to be desired

It has that splashed alcohol on charred plank aroma and something towards bananas. Burns tongue quite a bit, but gentle on the throat. Pretty good whiskey like aftertaste. I wouldn't enjoy sipping it, but definitely in daquiri!

Vůně je dobrá s vůní banánů.
Chuť je dosti trpká...
One of my favourites, great hint of pineapple throughout.

Sweet. Not a lot else going on. Not terrible, but definitely not good.

Tento rum som kúpil v rámci akcie, s možnosťou vyhrať kvalitnejší XO, ktorý som krátko predtým ochutnal a aj keď bol dosť sladký, čímsi ma zaujal. V prípade hodnoteného Caribbean Aged ide o blend pomerne krátko stareného jamajského a barbadoského rumu, fľašou príliš nezaujme. Farba je dosť svetlá, vôňa dáva tušiť dochucovanie, okrem tropického ovocia presakuje škorica a iné korenia, pri silnejšom nádychu zaštípe alkohol. Chuť je nasládla, s dominanciou vanilky a karamelu, znova s ostrejšou dochuťou liehu. Záver fádny a nahorklý. Ničím výnimočný druh, ďalšiu fľašu rozhodne kupovať nebudem, tento drink hádžem do jedného vreca s Havana Club 7Y a Espero Reserva Exclusiva, teda k rumom skôr vhodnejším do mixu s colou. Na gurmánske popíjanie určite nevhodný, subjektívny rating silnejších 5.

Was given a set of 5cl tastes and this was one of them. Loved this over ice!

Rum, který je jemný a funky, zároveň trochu sprostý. Má nádhernou Jamajskou vůni. Krásně ladí k doutníků, do koktejlů i samotný. Vzhledem k ceně velká spokojenost.

I really like this blend; a dry Bajan spiced up with a drop from Jamaica. A very flavourfull rum with lots of floral and fruity notes both in scent and taste. Easy drinking for sure and always seducing to take a glass more than planned.
So why just a 7? Well that is because over the last year I tasted 3 more blends that are built around the same theme; Mates (by Mates), Selected Rum (by Ultimatum) and Sample Eleven (by Kintra) and they are all (a lot) better than the Duppy Share while still in the same price category (€25-30). The cheapest of them, and closest in taste, is Mates and that surpasses the Duppy Share by 4 steps; more flavour, more complexity, more fun and costing less money. So despite being a really nice rum and finishing this bottle will be no punishment there is no reason to buy another one; there are simply too many better rums around.
