One of the first higher quality rums, that I bought. It has been a while, but I can confirm that this rum does not disapoint...

Un rhum correct, avec beaucoup de rondeur mais pas assez de longueur en bouche c'est dommage.

Me gusta mucho este ron dulce y aΓ±ejo, yo lo prefiero tomar convidado con Coca-Cola, sin embargo sabe bien con soda y un poco de limΓ³n como lo toman en RepΓΊblica Dominicana

Balance in all things. Not strong, but not pungent odor. The taste is complex and without unpleasant bulges. Alcohol blurred. Lulling long aftertaste. Bottle breathed 2 weeks and alcohol emerged harsher.

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.

Average sweetness and quite easy. Fruity taste with oak/wood, some honey

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.

For me yet again a tasty well balanced rum.... I like the sweet toffe smell with hints of vanilla flavour...with an ice cube and you make my day...
