Lovely Became one of my favorites! Best agricole I've ever had. In Haiti they want to make this an idividual category rather than "just" agricole rhum.

Habitation Velier Hampden LROK

Fantastic The first sip burns a bit but it smoothens in the end. Oak, molasses spice, cinamon, smoke, funk, floral, exotic fruits, dark berries, wood, sugarca

Havana Club Maximo Extra Anejo

Tasting session I was attending on a tasting session where this was introduced. One of the guys described this perfectly: When you have a perfect wife who is beautifu

Santiago de Cuba Isla del Tesoro

Just had a small dram Great. There is a bit too much sweetness for me but great heavy tastes and deep flavours and a cliché bottle and giftbox...

Kill Devil (Hunter Laing) Jamaica

Fantastic Has a great funk in it not so overwhelmingly rough but has a great punch. Great stuff from Hunter Laing

Great Back Story! I really like every Clairin but the backstory of this is why I prefer this as one of my favorites. Pure, spirit driven, round and tastefull, it is wha

Good one Now this has captured my heart. Balanced almost off limit and the aromas are really outstanding. I'll try all the other Quorhums...

Clairin Communal

Not as much for sipping Altough every other Clairin rhum is a treat when sipping but this I find better for mixing... Anyway I won't pour it down the drain if I don't have a

Punta Cana Tesoro Single Malt Whisky Finish

One great rum from Oliver y Oliver This became my favorite from this producer. A bit sweet but great aromas and tastes of vanilla, sourdough, caramel, banana, pineapple, coconut, gras

Kill Devil (Hunter Laing) Jamaica

A great Jamaican style rum I was lucky enough to try it when we were just over tasting a lot of Jamaican rum. but pretty much that stayed the best for me.

Dictador Best of

Yummy!! Mind blowing comlexity. I like the unique viscosity and the unforgettable deep complexity.

Clement Canne Bleue

Canne Bleue Great stuff. Not too harsh, fresh, lime juice, grassy, tropical fruits, soft finish.

Worthy Park Single Estate Reserve

Great stuff Strong aromas, with molasses, tobacco, cocoa powder, toffee and a slight hint of vanilla. Would drink this on the beach of Jamaica rather than in a ba

Dzama Cuvee Noire Prestige

It is for the Ladies! Yeah, a bit unusually sweet and too flavory, but it has became one of my favorite rum. Sweet, vanilla, caramel, a hint of banana. A little sweetend co

Don Papa Small Batch

Why isn't it called spiced? I know the answer for the question but a good question! It's really sweet and full of (artificial) vanilla flavor but I think it's quite balanced and

Finally! A good Zacapa. I was at Diageo's bar in Hungary and there was a presentation about the solera system and the ageing of this product. It was a bit fogg

Dos Maderas PX 5+5

Truly 5+3+2 So this is aged in (if I remember correctly) used bourbon barrels for 5 years and after 3 years in sherry barrels and after this gets in a PX casks...

World's End Dark Spiced

Suprise I was suprised by the fact that this spiced rum is way better than the overly hyped Kraken Black Spiced! It's good, but not great. Sweet, spicy, but

Don Papa Sherry Cask

Recomended to most Dried fruits and raisins, sweet but not too much and the molassed spiciness are also just hit. I recommend it to those who like sweeter and almost pri

Saint James Blanc 50

VS. If I had to choose between this and Clement, I'd take it home with a bottle of each and ask for a week of reflection ... then another ... and another

Kill Devil (Hunter Laing) Blended

I just want to give 9 * (bottles) for this but my finger couldn't push the button Overall a great blend of rums. True Jamaican funk with no overwhelming alcohol, perfectly small sweetness, molasses spice, but a bit of thin on the bo

Recommended to most This was my favorite Damoiseau rum but unfortunately I can't buy it anymore in my country...

Oliver's Exquisito Solera

Great value Cheap thats the good about it. For this quality it comes in a great retail price. Not the smoothest and most well balanced rum but in my case I would

Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva

Sweet, that's for sure! I think it's a solid 7. good (-ish) for value (depends where you buy it of course!), but I think it is not a real sipping rum. For this price there ar

Ron Zacapa 23 Solera

A bit Overrated Not as overrated as a Dictador 20 but it is near... Especially the price is a bit higher than it recomends for a rum at this quality. Sweet, spicy, lo

Gosling's Black Seal

Mixer rum It's a fine product. For my taste it's a bit too molassy and oily but the as the posts above says, it's the best for Dark N Stormy.

Recommendable to most A standard aged Jamaican rum. Nothing more and nothing less.

Kill Devil (Hunter Laing) Guyana

Starting with a bit of incomprehensibility On the one hand, deep and wide-ranging flavors. on the other hand, I miss a little body. overall I love and will keep it at home.

Plantation Gran Anejo Guatemala & Belize

I don't relly like the brand In my opinion, this is the best of the rums lined up at Plantation. Value for money anyway. Pleasantly sweet, but the spiciness floats on the surface

A good agricole nothing more A perfectly well-hit agricole rhum that is just as dry as it needs to be. it has no sweetish overtones nor excessive spiciness. dry, raw, banana, citr

Dos Maderas 5+3

Recommendable to most Loose little rum. It may lack a little body, but it is compensated by the harmony of flavors. Definitely a sipping rum.

Dos Maderas Luxus

Between 5+3 and 5+5 ?!?!?! All the other releases to the manufacturer are a much better item than this. I’m not saying it’s a bad rum, but it’s too sweet and the average body do

Oliver's Exquisito Solera

Lack of punch Could've been a great rum but I miss the lack of body and the thickness of the flavours. The ABV could be higher I think...

Hampden Estate Gold

Full of funk Good, but it didn’t become my favorite. You have to leave it a lot in the glass and after that its aromas will open, but unfortunately it is a bit thi

Clement Creole Shrubb

liquor not rum Elegant and great spiciness but in my opinion it's too sweet. Lot of orange zest, sugarcane, molasses, christmas spices and a lot of sweetness.

Ron Zacapa Ambar 12

Nothing special Round in its own way and appreciable rum, but considering that it belongs to the Zacapa brand, one would expect more

Pyrat XO Reserve

I like sweet rums but... ...This is a bit over my expectation. The merchendise what comes with it are cool and I use it as a key-chain but unfortunately this is the best part

Honestly I was very hyped about this before I tried it, and what a let down. ok! Not that as if the world had ended but big enough for me... Just by the label

Diplomatico Mantuano

Interesting is the word that describes it the most... Honestly I hated it... Absolutely not my type, but I must say that it is a well constructed rum. Quite balanced between oaky bitterness and caramel

Plantation XO 20th Anniversary

I was expecting more It’s too sweet, and the spiciness isn’t as round as I expected from such a batch. Unfortunately, I have to think it’s better in a cocktail than in a g

Kraken Black Spiced

I am more of a sipping rum guy... ...This is why the low rating. It's spiced (!) and not just a bit. Every drop is perfect for baking cakes and making Creme Brulée. Too much flavor (!!
