Very heavily spiced. For those who are a spiced rum drinker, this will probably be great for you.

A really lovely banana flavoured rum Excellent when you fancy a change

went to where it is made had a tour and some tastings it was a great experience the rum is smooth and has nice finish

Hard to find in the states, I generally have to bring this up from Grenada. Not a spiced rum, but quit spicy. Notes of vanilla, nutmeg, cinnamon, and coffee give this rum a completely unique taste.

Jeg har lige været på cruise og der var vi blandt andet på Grenada hvor vi var på besøg på Clarks Court destilleriet.
En af de rom vi kunne smage var denne rom, men for mig som europæer er den frygtelig skarp, den virker ikke færdig, den er så skarp at man ikke kan smage noget.

Den hab ich direkt aus Carriacou bei unserem Segeltörn erworben :-) ist nur für meine Segelfreunde bestimmt :-)

But not all of it is good. Smells sweet, tastes like vanilla and bananas, might be good mixed

Truly the fruitless rum I've ever tasted. Can be difficult to find but well worth picking it up if you can. Very unique from other rums. One of the lightest I've experienced as well.

This is a decent rum that is hard to come by in the States. Usually, I can only find this in the U.K. Clarkes Court is the largest distillery in Grenada and uses dark molasses to produce this lovely golden colored rum. Smooth with notes of oak, various fruits and spices linger long after the last sip.
Interesting tidbit is that Clarkes Court uses the old technology of steam to run and produce their rums.
Enjoyable neat or mixed...

This is quite a special one with a pretty distinct scent of banana in the nose. Positive: tastes less artificial than Bumbu (also banana). Not very complex though. A bit alcoholic and sharp, not very well balanced.
Serve it on the rocks on a hot summer eve.

Edit: after the tasting of many other rums, i have to raise the rating: 6.5 now
6.8
