Nice rum with a powerful aroma and warming feeling. Dry oak, smokey, leathery. It has a bite. Very good value for the money.

Very good rum for dry rums lovers. Super good price for the performance (if it costed more I would give 7/10). If you are tired of the sweet pleasers, try this one. It will fill your mouth with many aromas, but none of them will be vanilla or fruity.

I was a bit hesitant to start but I found it smooth and tasteful. Full body taste to it. It was great both as it self and mixed with Dark Ginger Ale. I have not tried it with coke yet, but I do say that ginger ale is better with rum personally. The rum does leave a great after taste and is dangerous cause it is so smooth and easy to drink. :) Recommend to anyone wanting a great tasting rum without hurting the bank.

No acaba de convencer para beberlo solo y es demasiado caro para combinados

Sassy bottle; not for rookies!
Strong alcohol smell on the nose; it burns my nose hairs.
A tonne of spicy smoke on the palate.
The finish is super dry and leathery.
Maybe it's just me; but nothing goes better with a fine cigar then a dry, leathery rum.
