Rum SixtySix Family Reserve ABV43 12-Year

I sampled this at Foursquare in Barbados and then brought a bottle home. It is one of my favorite rums. This is not available in the states. Pick up many on your next trip to Barbados or the UK.

Slightly sour initial punch, too much for my taste. Then finishes with a rubbery finish and a hint of a surprising spice. An oily coating lasts for a little while.

Not a great mix mix with cola

But not for all occasions

I actually thought this run was better with a little coke. It helped open the flavors and the spice gave it a nice touch.

Good, nice oakey adventure. healthy level of foliage and a decent underbrush make for a quality tasting experience.

Fruity and complex and excellent example of a Bajan style golden rum

Light aroma, and complex taste, yet still easy and relaxed to drink

Ok

Initially not blown away as it's £32+ in the UK, but the more I drink this rum the more I enjoy it.

If you like Doorlys you'll like this. I can see what some reviewers mean about it being oily but i think it coats your palette which is really enjoyable. Basically it's not watery ... You're drinking something that's been tropically aged so it's going to be rich...

Nice rum with full bodied flavour, not as smooth as some other 12 year olds, but still nice to sip.
