Couple of friends enjoyed this rum straight we felt the caramel came through. Wife liked it โ€œ for rumโ€ so I would have to say for some here this would be too sweet. However 6 people with different pallets enjoyed this rum straight. I think safe bet for entertaining.

Smells like bananas and caramel apple to me. Not the smoothest, but very nice. The bottle is what sold the rum.

Reminds me of a banana flavoured cough syrup, nice at first few sips, then it becomes too much. Wife liked it more...

I won this as part of a competition and thanks to that I have found one of my new favourite rums. Brilliant after a long day with ice, wee splash of ginger beer and rum

Very smooth and easy to drink straight. Wonderful banana bread smell and caramel taste!

Rhum รฉpice de qualite pour un epice.par contre en degustation le rhum est trop sur un le gout banane caramel.le nez est sur des notes balsamiques et de bananes sur muries.mais la sucrosite et un gout qui s estompe n en font qu un rhum festif pour des non connaisseurs .le gout ne vaut pas ses 36 euros.par contre la bouteille est magnifique et fait voyager a l epoque des pirates.....fan du flacon mais moins de son contenu qui se rapproche d un arcane extramora mais en vraiment moins bon.

Very smooth but for my taste, too sweet and too much of a banana note.

It taste like very sweet banana but don't worry, it's really good.

Like candy. Lots of vanilla and cooked banana flavours.

This was a new addition at our provincial liquor store so I figured, time to try something new.
Yes, the nose is (as others have noted) banana, with toffee, caramel and some vanilla notes. First sip, I was taken back to my youth, and the marshmallow banana candies I used to eat.
Sweet for sure, but the finish was quick and lacking in body to back it up. I'll try it again, but found it to be a little lacking on the qualities that make a true, high quality liquor.
If the site MOD can use the pic attached for the bottle, that'd be great.
