I have been seeing this Texas rum on the shelves of Total Wine for quite some time. I always left it there thinking what on earth do Texans know about making rum. So after reading reviews of this rum on Total Wine, I found out that this is actually from a winery in Tyler Texas on the far eastern side. They use their ex-wine barrels to age this rum from three different versions of molasses. This got my attention. Port wine is one of the barrels. So far so good. Syrah is the other barrel. Not so good for me since that grape is too spicy. One either loves it or hates it and I just cannot stand Syrah wine. With this last lingering doubt, I still bought my bottle today, mainly because of NO DAMN BOURBON NOTES!

Had they chosen Zinfandel instead of Syrah for barrel aging, this rum could have gotten my rating of 8 or higher while also giving Richard Seale a run for the money. I do give them credit for being very adventurous! And I will no longer frown upon Texas rum.

Floral nose, wood forward taste with a hint of port? solid and smooth, finish gets a little smokey burny though not a crazy amount but makes it lose a point. Surprisingly good rum.

I was in my local Total Wine and came across this one and thought I'd give it a try since it's from Texas and the review weren't too bad.

Overall it's pretty good even though I'm not convinced it doesn't have some added sugars and/or additive.

For the price this is a good Rum. I especially like collecting bottles of rum from around the country and This Texas bottle is great to sip on. Surprising complex flavors. Starts off sweet and ends bitter, not to dry though. The right combination!

Don't let the cheap looking bottle fool you this is a good rum. The hint of smokey flavor makes this stand out.

I've wavered back and forth from 7 to 8 . . . depends on my mood and what other rums I had recently enjoyed (or not). Seems I should give it the benefit of the higher rating. It IS good, but upon further review it only rates a 7.

I like to try most Texas rums, since I live here. Always a roll of the dice without other's reviewing. Give it a go if you get a chance. Widely available at this time at Total Wine & More and some Goody Goody.
