86 proof. Bite at the finish. Nice for the price. Blah blah blah. Am I to 50 characters yet?

Full natural rum, with no artificial ingredients. Smooth taste, but vanish quite soon. Worth having in the cabinet

Un bon rhum, trés agréable en bouche, la bouteille est originale.

Normale, senza particolari sapori e profumi. Sicuramente va bene per i cocktail. Va giu ma mi aspettavo più carattere e complessità da un rum 10 anni.

Dry, but nice. Alcohol sharpness goes smoothly, yielding woody notes. Comes a long aftertaste with hints of spices and confectionery.

Great aroma, good vanilla and oak taste, the bottle is pretty cool as well.

Got this as a gift and i was so excited to try it. Great looking bottle, nose, and it's kinda fun to pour into the glass. The drinking part makes it obvious why it's not on any shelves. I sip and don't mix or make home cocktails. I suspect this is mainly a mixer. Way over rated. Far better rums to be had.

Great example of its origin. I love to use it when introducing the scale of tastes rums are capable of. (I work as a bartender in rum/whisky bar in Prague).

The first thing that struck me about this rum was its deceptively light (but beautiful) amber color. Tree nuts, dried fruit, vanilla and alcohol come through on the nose. Opens up with some bitterness on the palate, with something warmer underneath... the rum has a bit of a thin body, but it finishes softly with some oakiness and caramel, and lingering warmth. Throughout the experience is just shy of too much alcohol burn, that transitions into a warm tingle that lasts and lasts.
Altogether it's a shockingly solid rum with no gimmicks or delusions, apart from the fun (and actually really satisfying to hold and use) bottle. If someone were to ask me to introduce them to a real rum, I would point to this first and foremost. I think the only reason this doesn't reach higher than a 7 for me is that nothing it does really gets me curious or excited. It's still a finely executed rum, and is great to keep around to compare to drinks that try to play off rum's foundational profile.
