Fine fine sipper. Really well done. I like it a lot.
I saw the positive reviews on this board, so i figured I'd check it out. First-off, and this is of minor significance, but online images gave me the idea that this had a cork-cap, yet i was dissapointed to receive my Scarlet Ibis with a screw-cap... sorry, I just hat screw-caps!
Now, little more to the point - the real dissapointment came when i took my first taste: The rum was completley off-balance, inelegantly bottled at 49% (which i don't usually mind). Before any flavours reached my mouth or nose, i was overwhelemed by blatant notes of acetone. After the overpowering ethanol died down there were supple of hints of vanilla and tropical fruits, but overall it was just way to harsh for me.
However, as a mixer it worked alright with coke but that's about it... Sorry guys, can't see what all the fuss is about

View: Pours light gold.
Nose: Very banana forward with a ltitle vanilla in there to boot.
Initial Tasting: Banana and spice up front; little bite.
Body: Vanilla lingers a bit with banana still ruling the roost.
Fade: Finishes with vanilla and banana on the tongue.

When it comes to my bar staples of rum for casual enjoyment I either swap between this and Pyrat. I remember the old recipe for pyrat, the one that was a little drier and a lot less sweet. This reminds me of that. The initial sip has a little more burn than usual, but that doesn't bother me.

I found this rum to be quite good, but not great. My tastes lean more to the sweetness of the El Dorado's or the whiskey like tastes of Bacardi Reserva Limitada or Havana Club aged rum.

The nose is quite light. .
"It is quite dry. The sweetness doesnโt last long on the tongue before being taken over by the more latin notes."

This rum may not be the most beautiful of rums, but it is - hands down - one of the best rums that i have tried.
The taste is sharp but at the same time delicate and savory.
If you prefer a rum that is not to heavy on fruit taste, you should try this.
