The nose is faint citrus and vodka-like alcohol, the taste is very mild and smooth, fine vodka with a lemon twist turning towards sweet, which almost disappears when mixed. Considering the price and the fact that there is nothing in the smell and taste which would spoil any drink, it is a nice inoffensive mixer - sometimes you need just that. Much better to spend money on this, than a would-be premium white rums. I usually prefer the white rums with more distinguishable taste that this, but I have to rise my original rating 6 to 8 as this is truly a unique mixer with a clean and mild taste, for a bargain.

Lacks a lot of the real bold qualities I use rum for. Works for where rum is used but would certainly not be one of my first rum options.

Not much rum taste, a touch of vanilla and rum alongside harsh vodka.

I've wanted to try this for a while. Very good as a mixer. Slight vanilla and nut notes. Not much of a burn. I'll keep a bottle on hand and it's price can't be beat.

Don Q Silver with Diet Coke has been a favorite of mine for years. It easily replaced Bacardi Silver due to the medicinal taste of the latter. If a smooth rum with your rum and coke sounds good to you, try it. Canโ€™t hurt.

My go to inexpensive mixing rum after visiting Puerto Rico. Everything youโ€™d expect in a inexpensive white rum.

Tasted at Laka Lono on 10/9/22. Pours clear. Aroma of Dixie crystals sugar. Boysenberries. Menthol. Wintergreen. Slightly vegetal. Tingling finish.

This is one of my favorite light rums for mixing. Very crisp-feeling and clean-tasting. Mild flavor, but just enough to let you know it is still rum. Totally tolerable "burn", if you can even call it that. Makes a nice Daiquiri. Another one that delivers over its price. If you are a Bacardi Superior person and have not tried this one, seriously, give this one a try.

They make a decently consistent product. Good for mixing, not the best, but still good. Minimal burn. Pretty smooth for what youโ€™d expect actually!
