A bit strong straight up, but it mixed okay. I will give it some more time (and tastes) and adjust the rating as appropriate. A 5.5 on my scale..

The smell is dangerously smooth. The flavors are very subtle with a pleasant viscosity that feels syrupy without being too sweet

Hits hard with a sharp clean aroma but finishes smooth. A fantastic mixer, one of the best with Coke, that carries its own through the entire drinking experience. I like this rum and believe it is a staple for the true rum fan...
It's a young rum and it's 49% abv, so it's harsher than other rums in it's price range. But for as light as it is, it offers a lot of complexity with notes of grass and salt air.

Not a highlight of my night, a bit rough for the list.

Remember not everyone's tastings are the same. I rated this low because I couldn't get any real flavors from it.

This is my favorite rum of all time. As of this moment... Ohio has stopped selling this rum. Shame.

Great rum that packs a strong punch from higher abv. Carmel, oak, spice, allbalanced perfectly. Amazing job

To be honest itโs just ok. I got interested in this rum after hearing it was commissioned by Death & Co. and that itโs made in Trinidad so I really expected a lot more out of it. Thereโs not much personality to it which may have been the point of it was intended for cocktails. Not sure Iโd buy this again.

49% ABV. I believe the bottle said the blend of Trini rums were aged 3โ5 years before bottling. Interesting nose. Some high notes. Mouth is a bit deeper. Starts light and cane-y, but dry. You can detect the oily, smoky Caroni. Surprisingly long finish.
Death & Company got something really good when this was developed for them. I love the proof, and I imagine this mixes like a charm. May need to make this my new "interesting" gold rum.
8-, 8
