46,2% abv
Spicy, burnt coffee, chocolate and chilli on the tongue.
Cherries, raspberry and rotten pineapple on the nose

A bit weird on the nose, but that is expected from 46.2° and relatively young drink.
After breathing for 10m the taste gets opened and it is delicious. Definitely 3 parts are detected: sweet, hot Guyana; fruity, a bit smoky Barbados and funky Jamaica.
Minus one point for short aftertaste; minus another point bacause it is overpriced.

A bit salty? Good for seafood? Maybe the navy vibe is influencing me, but solid rum nonetheless

Revisted years later, gives me a pot still nose, slight burn, still solid

Manly bottle, sorry lassies. Doesn’t indicate abv, though.
Nose is quite scotch. But the palate is def Carib. Decent funk. Surprising long finish. Will buy again. Slainte! to a surprise from Scotland.

I'd have to agree with many of the other reviews, this rum is decent, but not a cut above many of the others that are about $10-$15 less than this one.

Zpočátku mě vůně dost odrazovala, ale nakonec po chvíli vyvětrání je to lepší. V chuti převládají typické ovocné tóny, ale je cítit i káva, která mi osobně moc nesedí. Závěr dlouhý, jemný... I tak jsem rád, že jsem měl možnost ochutnat.

A sugary sweet and smooth rum which just lacks character for the cost. Almost an eight but just lacks uniqueness.

barva žlutá
- ve vůni se prolíná blend Guyany (káva), Jamajky (ovoce), Barbadosu (vcelku mladý, syrovější, ovocný)
- chuť jemná, mírně nasládlá, opět káva, mléčné karamelky, ovoce
závěr hutnější, koření, káva

6/10 c'est la meilleure note que je peut donner à ce rhum.... un peu déçu.

Black Tot 46,2 % . Den smager ude mærket, men lader dog også lidt tilbage at ønske.

This is pretty young, but much more cohesive than Smith & Cross for example.
Smell is quite solvent-y with a backdrop of layered sugar. Taste brings up the demerera flavours first - the liquorice and slightly dirty, burnt sugar from DDL - then there's the Bajan element coming in, reminding of typical dry Foursquare. The Jamaican element is pretty subtle. Just a slight touch of funk coming through, yet more noticeable on the finish.

This is young rum. It's flavours are definitely Demerera focused. It's a bit like El Dorado 15 in profile, but younger and fiery, no sugar, and with a finish tempered with Bajan and Jamaican notes.

First time round I only had a sample and I wasn't that impressed, but saw a bottle on special and took a punt that time spent with it would be worth while. And it has been. I'm enjoying this. It's good value, robust in flavour, complex enough to keep me interested. Short of Tiger Shark, this is the best blend I have come across!
