Cihuatan Cinabrio 12-year

Pretty spicy for a rum that old A light, naturally sweet rum that still is surprisingly spicy for it's age. Great taste. A good sipping rum.

Dictador 1985 Best Of 38-year

Great vintage rum The "Best of 1985" is a great example of Dictador's Best of line of rums. I just wish it had a little bit more strength.

Similar to Oliver's Exquisito 1985 Vintage Solera A sweet, well rounded, not too spicy premium rum. Great for sipping.

Diplomatico 2002

Significantly less sweetness compared to the Reserva Exclusiva, also more spice Surprisingly it has significantly less sweetness compared to the Reserva Exclusiva. The taste is definitely more demanding. I recommend you give t

Plantation Pineapple Stiggin's Fancy

Great! I don't like flavored rums at all. But once you read the text on the label you know that this isn't a typical flavored or spiced rum. It's great!

Doorly's 12-year

Great cheap sipping rum from Barbados The screw-cap is a turn off and when I filled my first glass I regarded the scent more neutral than rounded but after taking my first sip I was in lov

Clement VSOP 4-year

A great Rhum Agricole Smooth and well balanced Rhum Agricole. There certainly are other even better Rhums out there but at it's price point Clement's VSOP is really har

El Dorado 12-year

Great value The El Dorado 12 Year rum is sweet but spicy. I always catch myself comparing it with the even sweeter but somewhat similar Ron Botucal. I like El Dor

Oliver's Exquisito 1985 Solera

A. H. Riise XO Reserve Superior Cask

Good rum for those that like it sweet A rather sweet but natural tasting premium rum. Surely on of the best sweet rums out there!

Rum Nation Demerara Solera No 14

Good Demerara Rum! A typical Demerara rum. Despite costing about as much as a El Dorado 12 this one appears much older, revealing a well rounded, warm yet spicy finish t

Real McCoy 12-year

An unpolished real rum with a hint of sweetness The Real McCoy 12-Year Rum tastes younger than other 12 year old rums. I would describe it as unpolished. Yet it has a hint of sweetness to it that re

Bellamy's Reserve Rye Cask Finish 12-year

Solid and honest sipping rum from Barbados A light and natural rum from Barbados. No added sugar, just great rum. It reminds me of the Doorly's 12YO but it has unique rye cask finish taste.

Havana Club Selección de Maestros

Honest Cuban rum The Havana Club Selección de Maestros is an honest Cuban rum. Good value.

Decent Panamesian Rum If you like premium rum this one will probably more to your liking than the original Bumbu. It's a "real" rum without added sugar. It's worth to note

La Hechicera Extra Anejo

Great light sipping rum from Colombia The scent is oddly sweet for a rum with no added sugar but the taste reveals that he is one of this kind. The taste is rather light and unobtrusive. A

Plantation Barbados 5-year

Plantation Barbados Grande Reserve

Great rum for mixing and sipping The Grande Reserve has a gentle sweet taste. I can taste a distant hint of vanilla. In contrast to the XO 20th Anniversary this one definitely has a b

Dictador 20-year

Good rum, but doesn't stand out when compared with the 12-Year-Old Spicy scent but rather neutral, well rounded taste. A good rum but almost identical to the 12-Year-Old, it's just a bit smoother. The 12-Year-Old is b

Havana Club Anejo Reserva

Sippable mixing rum Like its 3 years brother this one this one shines as a mixing rum. If you sip it you will notice complex tastes. Its not too spicy.

Dos Maderas PX 5+5

A tasty special rum? A great scent, well balanced taste but a little too much Sherry taste for me to make it a real favorite.

HSE VSOP Reserve Speciale 4-year

Good but pricy rhum agricole It has a sweet scent that reminds me of sweet rums from Barbados. Its mild but complex and rather rough. I like it but when I take it's price into

Legendario Elixir de Cuba 7-year

Super sweet rum liquor Ron Legendario Elixir de Cuba is no real rum, it is a rum liquor. It is very sweet. Far out sweeter than Ron Diplomatico, A. H. Riise and other rums t

Mount Gay 1703 Old Cask

Good rum but somewhat I bought this rum because I liked the XO so much. The bottle and cork pledge premium but it somehow lacks the well balanced flavors that make the XO g

Diplomatico Reserva

Tame sweet rum The Reserva Exclusiva stands out from other sweet rums because it is so well balanced. The Reserva isn't. It's sweet but just a little bit too light,

The Duppy Share Caribbean

Very fruity and spicy rum The Duppy Share features a fruity and light aroma. Yet it is very spicy. Unpolished perfection?

Centenario 12-year

Light and sweet rum The Ron Centario 12 Years is light and sweet but at the same time has a very noticeable ethanol flavor.

Cruzan Single Barrel

Mediocre Very (too?) spicy and a little bit of sweetness. For those who like a strong rum. Probably great for mixing as well.

(Too) sweet but well composed I was skeptic when I tried this rum and in deed it isn't my taste. It is quite sweet (8 out of 10 on the sweetness scale) and tastes a bit artificial.

Beckschulte Weisse Schokolade Likör

Sweet liquor but too litte taste Not too sweet but the taste is underwhelming. Almost no chocolate aroma noticeable. Maybe for white chocolate fans.

Drinkable chocolate liquor rum Tastes like ready to drink cacao out of a TETRA PAK, somehow artificial, has some sweetness, strong alcoholic note

Promising smell, disappointing taste Ron Aldea Anejo 3-5 years smells sweet and fruity but you will also notice a heap of alcohol. I tastes very dry, has minimal sweetness and a harsh alc
