I really enjoyed this bottle which I got for around €64 on Amazon great colour to it good flavours and a delicious aroma. Not quite up there with other XO's such as the Zacapa XO but at the price its very affordable.

A tad astringent initially but quite complex when given time to breathe. Praised for being a true rum without any added sugar or flavourings.

I guess you could call this an every day sipper. It tasted artificial ily sweet to me. There is much better out there.

Medium color - VERY long on the palate - not too sweet, definite rum flavor unlike some rums that taste more like vanilla extract, perfume or molasses. This is the real deal in sipping rum.

Love the nose of this rum especially the longer it sits in the glass. It gains more complexity. Molasses, cinnamon, oak and hints of citrusy fruit. Not to be mixed. Sip away my friends.

Zezacatku lehke zklamani, asi dane velkym ocekvavani. Muj prvni rum z Barbadosu. Dubova sladsi chut, kourova, peprovy konec. Ale za tu cenu jsem cekal vic...

Vyborna koupe, doporucuji, spis whiskovy, malo sladky, nedoslazovany. Vune nasladla, jemna, je citit vanilka a dubove drevo. Chut jemna, kulata a hladka, na jazyku je citit drevo a staroba. Mohu doporucit jako zajimavou alternativu k podobme drahym rumum zacapa a legendario, kde se lisi hlavne svoji sladkosti

I like this better than old cask. It's very balanced, not as much fruit, drier than I expected, but in a good way. Price is great. It's not as versatile as eclipse, but it is more flavorful and definitely a great sipping rum.
