I'm a amateur mixologist and professional bus driver from Finland. I love Tiki drinks but also more classic style cocktails with or without rum.

Plantation Overproof O.F.T.D.

The alcohol burns Oh, the alcohol has some burn to it. My tongue went numb for a minute or two. Flavorwise (neat) this is 4/10 but everything about it looks very nice a

Plantation Isle Fiji

Very nice rum! Look forward to mixing with this! It's a bit light in the color but the bottle is nice. Flavor is 8/10 which is a lot for me who doesn't like any booz

Single Cane Estate Worthy Park

A watered flavor The flavor: 5/10. A strange watery flavor in there. 7/10 for both aroma and look/feel of bottle. 10/10 for the color of the liquid.

Flor de Caña Extra Dry 4

Just say no! Ok, so I tasted this highly awaited rum by itself. It tastes like nail polish remover and turpentine mixed together. I'm really hoping this will mix w

Not the most exciting rum, but nice I only tasted a spoonfull of this neat and got no negative feelings about it. Instead I did get some promise of that this will most likely be good in

Mount Gay Eclipse

A little boring, isn't it? This was my first try of any Mt. Gay rum and I have to say that there was nothing really special about it when I tried it neat. Nor was there anything

Should be good in cocktails As I don't really enjoy any alcohol neat, I use my own rating system, taking into consideration (in addition to flavor) also the aroma, the look of th

Plantation Original Dark Double Aged

Quite nice actually On it's own this has too much ethanol flavors for my taste. But then again, so does every other over 10% ABV spirit as well. I like to use rum in cock

Smith and Cross Traditional Jamaica Navy Strength

A nice rum for cocktails On it's own this tastes too strong for me. I like the funky (almost rotten) banana flavors, but only in cocktails with fruit juices. Nice color, nice

Appleton Estate Signature Blend

I love this in cocktails As part of a cocktail I would give this a 9/10 as it gives lots of great flavors to any cocktail. However, on its own it's only 6/10. It has some swee

I thought this would be different I have never tasted any rhum Agricole before. Based on what I've heard and read, I was expecting something very different from other rums. It wasn't.

Don Q 151 Overproof

Fire in a bottle This is my first 151 rum. The burn that the ABV gives overpowers the flavor in this kind of drink so it's not really meant for sipping. Really look fo

Wray & Nephew White Overproof

Just say no There's no way to drink this as is unless your taste buds are out of order. In a cocktail you can use a small amount of this and actually get nice fun

Great in cocktails I love this in cocktails but on its own it burns too much in the throat and tastes a bit too ethanoly.

Bacardi Superior

This used to be my go to rum... ...until I found Tiki and realized the wide selection there is in the world. I still love the smell of a Bacardi & Coke and I don't hate the fruity

Nice twist of lemon... ...but that's not enough to make this too interesting. Don't know if I prefer this to a unflavored Baradi or not. Easy to drink with Coke when your on

Bacardi Razz

No need for refill On the up side, this is easy to drink without mixer or ice even if you don't like straight up booze. On the down side, it can't be mixed with anything
