Pull The Pin Spiced

A really tasty rum This is an interesting one. It's lighter in colour than I'd expected, but not light on flavour. Fantastic for drinking neat, it hits with a cinnam

Black Magic Black Spiced

Sweet, but moreish I was surprised to see that some of the reviews of this aren't overly complimentary. It's very sweet, which I suppose might put people off, but it

Rosemullion Distillery Dark

Very well balanced The usual suspects of caramel, coffee and clove are present, so nothing new on that front. However, the flavours and heat are incredibly well balanced

Flor de Caña 12-year

A good introduction to the next price point Having exhausted all the cheaper rums available to me, with a mixed level of enjoyment, I decided to take advantage of a black Friday sale to try a bo

Discarded Banana Peel

Don't be deceived by the smell Gave it a sniff first. Wasn't getting any banana. But when you drink it, it's a totally different story. A backbone of banana but enough complexity to

I like this more than most seem to The aroma is pure caramel. Drinking it straight you just get the caramel and the heat. With a mixer, vanilla comes through in a strong way. I enjoy dr

Rumbullion Spiced

Good stuff Fruity and spicy in equal measure. While it's not the cheapest rum on the market, it feels like vood value for money when you're drinking it.

Dead Man's Fingers Hemp

Unusual, but in a good way Tried this one recently, after already making myself quite familiar with the rest of the range. It's thought to be the world's first CBD rum. While

English Spirit Old Salt

A solid, serviceable rum This is a versatile rum with a smoothness that is characteristic of EnglishSpirit. It has subtle notes of raisin and banoffee, though the caramel i

Plantation Pineapple Stiggin's Fancy

My first impression was too harsh At first, I did not rate this rum. The pineapple seemed a bit synthetic, more like sweets than actual pineapple. However, mixing in a dash of ting has

Pyrat XO Reserve

A fantastic sipping rum Smooth, with just the right amount of fire at the end. Will be drinking again.

Duppy Share Caribbean

Better than some reviews on here give it credit for. I went into this one with low expectations after reading some of the reviews on here. I was presently surprised to find that it's a very pleasant rum,

Kirk and Sweeney 12-year

Surpassed expectations A very well balanced rum, with no real harshness to it when drinking it neat. When mixed, it retains a characteristic flavour, when many rums becom

Don Papa Small Batch

I don't understand the negativity around this one. I really enjoyed this one. Sweet vanilla followed by a citrus aftertaste. I could easily drink a lot of this.

Red Leg Vanilla & Ginger Spiced Rum

Good with ice If you're a fan of original Red Leg, you'll enjoy this. However, I've not found a mixer that really compliments it. While drinkable with most thing

Angostura 1824 12-year

A decent white If I'm honest, white rum isn't my favourite, but this is very serviceable.

Peaky Blinders Black Spiced

A guilty pleasure A lot of the reviews of this rum say that it's too sweet, and if I'm honest, it kind is. However, other reviews that are more favourable talk about th

Easy drinking with a mixer Perfectly drinkable without, but nothing to write home about.

Kraken Black Spiced

Dependable While there may be better rums out there, this one is dependable and served in most bars, meaning that it's a bit of a go to rum for me these days.

Appleton Estate Rare Blend 12-year

Drinkable As part of a rum board, this was my favourite of 4. Nothing truly phenomenal though.

Dead Man's Fingers Spiced

Not a bad alternative to Kraken I ended up having this when the local was out of Kraken. Not quite as tasty in my view but very easy to drink.

El Dorado 12-year

Deep flavours It may not be what I look for in a rum, but I can appreciate that it's a very flavourful rum with a depth that many will appreciate.

Mount Gay Black Barrel

Very drinkable A good rum for sipping or mixing. Pretty well balanced and very enjoyable. I would happily buy this rum again.

A tasty flavoured rum It's what you'd expect from a flavoured rum. Very drinkable with passionfruit.

Black Tot Finest Carribean 5-year

Toffee and caramel One of the sweeter rums I've tried. Very drinkable straight but nice offset with ginger beer.

Lang's Finest Old Banana

A decent banana rum There are better banana rums out there. Discarded Banana Peel for one. However, this is a very serviceable one.

Caribbean's Finest Coconut

Spoons and.... ...kind of what you'd expect. Disappointed that it turned up there.

Sailor Jerry Spiced

It's... okay It's serviceable. Not the best rum for sipping by any stretch, but you could do worse for a rum for a long drink.

Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva

It's good, but not really rum Indulgent and decadent but not really the flavours that I associate with rum.

Foursquare Spiced

Reminds me of biscoff Strong caramel flavour. Reminds me of biscoff, which is weird considering the lack of sweet finishing notes. Quite enjoyable if paired with a mixer.

Angostura 1919 8-year

Passable I don't mind it. Can drink it quite happily, but not my thing as it lacks a sweetness that I look for in rum.

Captain Morgan 100

Good enough A rum that's perfectly drinkable, but isn't going to blow anybody away.

Pusser's Gunpowder Proof 3-year

Harsh This rum has a very harsh flavour. Not for everybody.

Havana Club Anejo Especial

Good for the price It may not be my favourite rum, but it's pretty good for the price range it finds itself. Easy enough to drink and easy to pick up without spending a

Mount Gay Eclipse

It's fine... ...but there are nicer rums available in the same price bracket. Mixed with ginger beer, coke or pineapple soda, it's very drinkable, but nothing t

Dead Man's Fingers 2019 Lime 0-year

It's just okay I'm a fan of Dead Man's Fingers spiced rum. I also quite like the hemp one, though I realise that's an unpopular opinion. This flavoured one thoug

East London Liquor Company Demerara

A fairly robust rum It might not set your world on fire, but it's inoffensive and hard to find any major fault with. A decent rum with a mixer and not awful straight or w

Dead Man's Fingers Banana

A bit artificial As is sometimes the case with flavoured rums, this one tastes a little artificial. That said, it's not entirely unpleasant and is quite drinkable w

Okay if you're mixing This seems to be a rum that's been made to cash in on the current popularity of Kraken. It's heavy on vanilla, but has a somewhat more synthetic taste

Brewdog 2019 Five Hundred Cuts Botanical

It's...okay It claims to be aromatic, and it is, at least a bit. The problems comes in that's not really want I want from a rum. I realise I sound close minded

Old Hopking Dark

Pretty bland If you have to mix it with coke it won't kill you, bit it isn't good rum.

Appleton Estate Signature

It works On it's own, it really isn't great. With a mixer, or as part of a blend in a cocktail, it's serviceable. There are better rums in the price brac

Captain Morgan Black Spiced

Lots of comparisons to Kraken... ...which is understandable. There are certainly some similarities. Personally, I'd put this below Kraken, though feel that those who like this styl

El Dorado 3-year

Really nothing special Drinkable white rum, but nothing to write home about.

Santa Teresa 1796

It's not bad It has a certain depth of flavour, and may suit some palates. I didn't find it completely unpleasant, but it didn't do a lot for me.

Bacardi Superior

We all know it isn't great Yes, it's Bacardi and it isn't fantastic. However, for making Pina Coladas, it serves a purpose and it isn't expensive.

Twin Fin Spiced Golden

This was sold to me as a slightly upmarket rum... It isn't. Don't get me wrong, I've had worse rums, but there's no subtlety to this one. It's like getting hit with a sledgehammer which is comprised e

Dark Matter Spiced

Too heavy on the clove and peppercorn Not the worst rum I've ever had, but far from the best. Clove and peppercorn flavours overpower everything else, to the extent that mixing with coke b

Havana Club 7-year

A bit harsh This one is a bit too harsh for my taste. It needs a mixer to be palatable in my humble opinion.

It burns, it burns! An overwhelming burning sensation that makes it hard to think about flavour.

Captain Morgan Cannon Blast

It's bad Really bad. I didn't expect much but Jesus. It may be one of the toughest drinks I've ever had.

Appleton Estate Reserve Blend

Incredibly harsh This is not a rum to be drinking neat. If you must drink it, it needs a whole lot of diluting to become even slightly palatable. It is cheaper than

Real McCoy White Single Blended 3-year

Not amazing To be fair, I'm biased. I'm not the biggest fan of white rum. That said, I take no pleasure whatsoever in drinking this without a mixer. Ting makes

Captain Morgan Spiced

It is not a good rum Only worth drinking for drinking's sake. Not a tasty rum, but comes with the advantage of getting you too drunk to care. Unfortunately, (or fortunatel

Cut To The Smoke 3-year

Too much smoke It should not come as a surprise to anybody that this rum has a smokey flavour. However, it is so overpowering, so lingering, that it drives away plea

Flor de Caña Añejo Clásico 5-year

Well, it gets you drunk There's really not much else to say that's positive. I suppose it's cheap. Smells clinical. Tastes fairly rotten straight. Not fantastic with a mix

Chairman's Reserve Original 4-6 Years

Not for me At first I had to double check the percentage as I thought I might have bought an overproof rum by mistake. It's a fairly standard 40% but tastes much

JW Spicers Dark

Sweet Jesus, it is bad Neat, this is bloody awful. Sweet but terrible in every conceivable way. The only two ways to drink it are drowning it in mixer or generally giving
