Longueteau Grande Reserve

One of a kind Pure pleasure. Fruity with a floral and woody finish that never ends

Magnifique Beautiful mineral finish, very suble. Gets better over time.

Abuelo Centuria

Fantastic Great balance. Café, vanilla and eventually chocolate! A long beautiful finish. It has everything. I don't even know why I'm not giving a 10. I guess

Subtle Caramel, coffee, citrus, greens. Slightly leathery in the nose. Smooth mouth with caramel, coffee again. Complex. Orange zest. Lingering finish, wa

Plantation Jamaica Xaymaca Special Dry

The taste of great piracy Great body. Strong but round and with a delightful lengthy ending.

La Hechicera Extra Anejo

One of my favorites Very easy to drink. Fried banana aromas in the nose, sweet entry with a more smoky mineral finish.

Origenes Reserva Especial

Roundness An authentic carribean rum with sweetness and strength. Beautifully round. Just missing a liitle touch of madness to be perfect

Dictador XO Perpetual

Worth a sip or 10 Mineral nose with walnut and light caramel aromas. Very similar in the mouth which makes out for a great original sipper. Notes of coffee, walnut, sli

Plantation Nicaragua

Dates A favourite mixing flavors of passion fruits and dates into a round rum that finish beautifully.

Caroni Trinidad

With a kick A powerful yet subtle solution to your overproof needs. Very beautiful sharpness that elevates your senses with power.

Well done!! Beautiful as a digestive. Slightly spicy (anis, wood skin). Smooth lingering finish with vegetal notes.

El Dorado Special Reserve

Well done!! Lightly spiced nose. Fruity at first then bending towards an exotic cognac. Great balance, nice finish.

Santa Teresa 1796

Balance I liked it from the first sip. Very balanced rum. Great nose. Smoothness. The finish is a bit short maybe with a spice, maybe clove.

Not quite then amazing Perfumed first nose, intense. Creamy caramel, peach then mineral. Green fruits, smoky cheap wood. Discreet later. Creamy caramel mouth, grilled bread

Delicious Great surprise. I tried this rum in Barcelona with initial scepticism but was happily surprise to find this very well made white rum. So good that it

Compagnie des Indes Jamaica

Ripe banana skin The nose is insanely aromatic with overly ripe banana. It has a slightly fermented smell, in a good way. In the mouth the rum literally explodes, note

Trois Rivieres Cuvee de l'Ocean

The special one Very unique batch. Cuvée de l'ocean brings you mineral flavor, iodin, dryness and subtil flower notes.

Barbancourt 5 Star Reserve Especiale

Very fair quality product This is a very good starting point in the carribean rum enlarged family. Barbancourt 8 is smooth, easy to drink, with very tipical notes from its 8 ye

Plantation Gran Anejo Guatemala

Candied fruits and cognac Beautiful nose with candied fruits and café. The mouth is smooth cognac and finding again soft tones of candied fruits. Nice one.

Isautier Rhum Arrangé Café Vanille

Nice enough Same as for the banana one, it's tricky to rate a commercial rum arrangé. This one performs well though the vanila tastes a bit artificial.

Nice discovery Finally a spicy rum that is not overly flavoured. Blended rum aged in Frnce in cognac barrels. Nicely done.

Havana Club Pacto Navio

Interesting Agressive nose. Mineral and herbal mouth. Very interesting product. Well made

Millonario Reserva Especial 15

Sweet Nose candied apricots, dry fruits, mouth like a zacapa, rond très sucré, burned wood, long perfect finish

Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva

Yaarrrrr Roundess at its best. Excellent mix of vintage Diplomatico. Very sweet feeling that makes it too easy to drink...

Abuelo Gran Reserva

Floral honey Miel fruity nose, hay. Leathery mouth with miel, banana, oak.

Ron Zacapa Centenario 15

A reference under $40 Great nose, smooth in mouth. Caramel, vanilla, light café that make for very nice, easy to drink and affordable drink. Lack a bit of ending in my opin

Dos Maderas PX 5+5

Nice originality Very dark in color. Agressive nose at first that then evolves very nicely. The Jerez is very present with aromas of cherry wood, toffee, fig and candi

Trois Rivieres Cuvée du Moulin

Martinique roundness Really enjoyable cane rum. It has the attributes of Martinique origin without the agressivity. Beautiful.

Plantation 3 Stars Artisanal

Interesting enough for a whity Interesting as a white rum, but it's not a true white rum in reality. Easy to sip. Tastes flowery but lack length. Very short.

Rum Nation Panama

Sweet toffee A bit too sweet. A nice hint of exotic fruits but unfortunately the sweetness takes everything..

Plantation Guyana

Lacks something Powerful in the nose with sweet notes. Rpund in mouth but somehow too typical with a feeling of deja bu!

La Favorite Coeur

Dried grass - Hay Very vegetal rum. Not for everyone but I enjoyed the originality of its flavors. I feel this is a very natural product without any additives.

Plantation Trinidad Overproof

Interesting overproof Its an overproof with its share of ethanol smell initially. Though it opens up to beautiful toasted flavors, citric zests, wood skin. A killer!

Ron de Jeremy The Adult

Has to seat in the glass for a while Dry, too dry with powerful ethanol smell and flavors. After 30 min it becomes drinkable. Mineral rum with soft tones of stones. I lile mineral rums bu

Good Very classic Caribbean rum with the usual flavours

Tanduay Superior

Fair A very competitive mixer with Coke. Slightly spicy, smooth. But 12yrs old? Flavored 12 yes old? Can't really feel it's natural...

When in the Philippines Can't say it's great but it is a nice easy to drink rum with tones of oak and vanilla. A bit weak maybe but for $5 what can I say.

Good enough to avoid mixing it Great entry level rum. I prefer it on ice, lemon and mint with loads of ice but can easily be appreciated straight.

Peppery Decent rum. Vanilla, more mineral and spicy than sweet. Still gotta try the 18 and 25...

Medellin Gran Reserva

Better go for the 10yrs 95th anniversary edition Not bad but... Nice fruity first nose, more oaky afterwards. The mouth is a bit disappointing though it has a long warm finish. Vanilla and baked appl

Santa Teresa Gran Reserva Linaje

Rough venez Smooth sweet first nose then more mineral. Strong in mouth, burnt caramel. After taste not too good.

Classic Young rum that already has character. Great mixer for Coke or mojitos

Gimme fruits Classic flavours from Martinique. A classic fruity scent that comes with its lot of agressivity. Powerful in mouth. Compare well to Dillon. Perfect to

Union 55 Salted & Spiced

Not my slice of gouda Overly sweet and spiced rum that would disgust the toughest palates. Thank you but no thank you.

Vanilla syrup Vanilla in the nose, vanilla in the mouth and vanilla after-taste. Too sweet and full of vanilla flavour to be natural. Having said that Im a vanill

Diplomatico Añejo

Too much caramel Not a bad rum. Nose is full of caramel, too much for me. Fruity too though, with some mandarin and green banana. Mouth is fairly smooth, with flavours

Appleton Estate Reserve

A basic taste of Jamaica Good nose for a mild spicy rum. Not bad in mouth, a bit too peppery for me. Some good notes of honey and cinnamon. Hot smoky ending.

Don Papa Small Batch

Way too syrupy A very nice present to a non rum-drinker... It looks like a good rum. But as soon as you lower your nose into the glass you wonder what it is and how

Rum in Tetrapak Well well, curiosity... Cheap party rum, can't expect so much!

Rum for cola Not inspiring me enough to write anything. It says "rum" on the bottle!

Rond Nose plum, pruneaux. Smooth mouth. Flat finish. Good surprise. Conditions: partying

Maybe a bad bottle Had a very untasteful experience with this one. Not my thing.

Coconut licor Cocococonut well don't know why I'm even rating this one

Appleton Estate White

Oily Basic white rum. Bought it to infuse and left a dose to taste. Smell is very neutral, can let me think it's a rum issued from clean molasses. In mouth

Pyrat XO Reserve

Synthetic orange Not of my liking. For me it is just an awful spicy orange rum. Not very well balanced.

Captain Morgan Dark

Not a favorite Very spicy and strong after taste of not-so-good rum

Very dry I don't know the history behind the production of Rum Duran and got to try it in an event without any expectations. Nose is dry without any particul

Ron Viejo de Caldas

Banana Strong aroma and taste of candied bananas, kind of easy to drink (I assume it has a lot of added sugar). Disgusting!

Red as a warning The classic rum of the Phikippines. Found almost anywhere for less than $2 a bottle. Can't expect much at this rate. It is drinkable with cola.

Agressive Definitely not my favorite cachaca. Quite aromatic in the nose but way too aggressive in mouth.

Saint James Royal Ambre

Even doubtful in a planteur The taste of Martinique but not quite the standing

Syrup Syrup de caramel with strong smell of ethanol. Dull!!

So so is an understatement Overly sweet and artificially enhanced. Never ever again

Tanduay Philippine

Wrong like its color One of the national drinks in the Philippines (yes one is not enough). A good drink to forget how shitty is Manila and see the bright side of things.

SangSom Special

Rum? I had a very good time with a few bottles of that liquid but can't call that rum. I'd like to learn more about how it's made. More of a caramelly whis

Great for cooking, not drinkable Very familiar rum since I was a kid. Used for baking and some other French and West Indies' dessert recipes

Good to desinfect a wound maybe Horrible stuff, from beginning to end. Nothing to get out of it. I would use it as a chemical cleaner, for nothing else and certainly not for drinking

Naughty Horrible liquid! Not even good enough to infuse with some spicies. Lasting naughty after-taste...
