Brinley Gold Shipwreck Vanilla

I honestly didn't expect to like this much, as I generally don't care for flavored rums. But this has a really nice thick creamy texture that appeals to me.

I wouldn't call this a rum though. It's really more of a vanilla liqueur (the Zaya Vanilla is much more of a rum). But since it's on this website and I tried it, I'll go ahead and score it.

Has just a light vanilla smell, but the sugary vanilla taste is much stronger than the smell. Not much else to describe this.

Only 36%abv, this can EASILY be drunk straight without mixing. I like it!

Intense vanilla, too intense. Sweet, dessert like. Smooth enough to enjoy on the rocks.

This is great just like there spiced but with a strong vanilla taste and sweeter then the spiced.

This stuff is very sweet, almost like drinking candy. If you have a sweet tooth, this one's for you.

Good rum has a great amount of burn
If you like strong vanilla rum this rum is for you. Not bad for sipping and amazing in coke

Syrupy and smooth, overwhelming vanilla notes. More of a cold weather rum.

This rum is exactly what I expected of it. It’s a very sweet vanilla rum a little on the thicker side. Good as a mixer or by itself.

Very strong vanilla taste. Sweet. Not to be mixed with soda. Sipped over ice is best. Nice taste but not the type of rum to drink a lot of all at one time.

My initial thought was that it was syrupy and extremely sweet, but I ended up coming around and really enjoying it. Easy sipper on the rocks. A little too sweet as a neat sipper. Was the absolute life of the Christmas party mixed with eggnog. At the very least, it has me curious about their other rums

This bottle had been sitting on the bottom shelf of my favorite liquor store for months. Finally, it begged me to take it home, so I finally did. It is almost as thick as pancake syrup. It would go great on pancakes or waffles. It also goes great in premium coffee. It is capable of putting any vanilla latte over the top! You can also use it to mellow out those rums that have too much wood in the flavorings. As a neat sipper or on the rocks, this would only be for those with a sweet tooth. It is better than their Mango, but not as good as their Coconut. Their Spiced is still by far my favorite from them.
