Had a great Dark N Stormy in Rum House Bar in Prague. (photo of homemade drink)

Very fresh taste thanks to ginger ale, and Goslings rum is the best choice for this drink.

Initially there are enticing aromas of caramel and burnt sugar. There is also an almost fruity sweetness that reminds me of baked apples which is followed by warm caramel. The rum is not too sweet. I can taste caramel, burnt sugar and butterscotch with just a tiny hint of bitterness. The rum is quite dry with a light spice. A must for mixing with ginger beer.

Color : Dark mahogany
Flavour : Treacle, ripped fruits, spices like caramel & cumin, toffee
Palate : Soft & gentle but rich, clean finish

It's THE rum to use to do a Dark n' Stormy (official Bermuda drink), a must to have in your cabinet...

This is my go to rum for mixing with cola.....but only a splash of coke.

Lest there be any doubt, this is for a Dark & Stormy. That's about it. Too prominent a flavor for anything else.

This is the rum that got me started on tasting different rums. It's sweet and has little burn. It works well by itself and a mixer.

Must have for a proper Dark & Stormy, an aquired taste as a mixer for other recipes, smokey molasses flaver can be overpowering.
