Je to jeden ze skupiny jednodušších rumů typu Abuelo Anejo, Contadora 12, Plantation Grande Reserva. Za zmínku stojí spíše jeho upravení bratříčci, Sherry Cask, Port Cask u těch sudy přidali mnohem více charakteru.

I've given up on trying different rums. I've tried enough to know what I like and stick with it. I drink Flor de Cana 7 because it's the best I can get in a 1.75 L bottle. This one is a s good as that but I can't buy it even at Total Wine so it earns a good rating based on my tasting, but it loses a little since I can't buy it.

Fine rum in a variety of classic cocktails, didn't stand out in a good or bad way. Not sure I'd buy it again just to prioritize more interesting things.

Long aftertaste, bananas, good candy snack after dinner.
Very acceptable mixing rum with lime and tonic. Very happy to find it in Sarasota !

So a 7 for me although I can understand some ratings a bit lower. As a few have mentioned this rum does seem a bit flat and depth is lacking a little but still I cannot find anything really bad to say. And for well under $30 it is priced fairly. Semi-sweet and a little dry nothing tastes artificial either. I am not disappointed.

This is a fantastic rum with at a ridiculously low price! It has a well balanced and smooth taste with vanilla and oak notes. A perfect rum for every day. Especially with this price (20 EUR).

It’s nothing extraordinary but it’s a great rum for what it is. A go to for either mixing with Coke or even neat. A very mild nose hints of oak and slight cinnamon. Not the smoothest sip but not harsh either. Light and warms the mouth. Notes of vanilla and oak on the sip.

Boozy in de mond. Afdronk is zacht. Kost niks🤷

To me, this rum ticks most of the boxes. It has an age statement, it is not overly sweet, it says where it is from, price is about right.
And the nose is quite nice. Woody, fruity. And a hint of mouldy cardboard. Which I do not care for at all.
Seriously, I thought the cork had gone bad. But that is not the case, I believe.
Taste is medium sweet (I assume some sugar is added, but not in excess), vanilla, more fruity than I would have thought, pear, cherry conserve, sugar cane. And something like mouldy cardboard or a musty cellar. Very strange and not really that appealing to me. It might grow on me, but so far (about two years) it has not. The bottle has improved with some oxidation overall, but I still get more mould then I would like.
On the other hand, it is a relatively light rum, which still has quite a complex profile. Since it is the only Antiguan rum I tried so far, I am really in no position to judge. But in comparison to other rums that I know, this is quite unique. Which is good.
No idea where people get the whisky analogies from. This rum tastes nothing like any normal whisky. And I only add "normal" to rule possible freaky experimental rum-cask whiskies and the like.
Since everything comes together very nicely in this rum, I assume that it is meant to be that way. And that is fine ultimately. Might even grow on me further. For now, I find it OK-ish, not very good.
