Ron de Jeremy XO

Oh my gosh he is so gentle! Perfect advertising. Funny and also more importantly...true! Love the little touch of bourbon taste in combination with the extraordinary smoothness.

Zafra Master Reserve 21

really really good White oak after bourbon was a great choice. Very distinguished nose and mouth. This one doesnt bore you for a while

Dos Maderas PX 5+5

Want somethig nice and smooth? Very pleasing in nose. Sherry casks work miracles. Nice story about the aging process, get your attention. If you want something aperitif like or you

Mr. Mixer Perfect for mixing which it was made for. So...mission accomplished :) Very smooth for a rum that young, nice hints of vanilla and coconut. After t

Pusser's Overproof

Ahoy sailor! Now this is a navy rum as it should be! This is not a ladies drink, yet you can find some pleasant aromas if you keep it in mouth long enough.

Barcelo Imperial

Not for everyone Very good rum for dry rums lovers. Super good price for the performance (if it costed more I would give 7/10). If you are tired of the sweet pleasers,

Yes please! This is one of few rums I always gladly come back to after some tastings. I cant find a single thing I dont like about this rum. Perfectly balanced, a

Cubaney Gran Reserva

Suprisingly sweet, but rich Very woody in nose, didnt expect the amount of sugar. I am not a big fan of sweet rums, but in this one i found it quite pleasant. Nice and rich body

Where is my cigar Woody, long tasting rum with nothing gratuitous in it. Nicely balanced and rounded.

Mount Gay Eclipse

Very hard to rate... 8/10 as a mixology rum 4/10 as a straight rum Very unpleasant in nose, taste kind of synthetic. Yet works so well in drinks, never understood that

Now this is some good agricole Very clean and direct rum. I love the nose, so much cane in it. Also the aroma makes you think the rum would be smooth, which it really isnt which i f

Very distinguished This gentleman amazed me really soon. Great sweetish aroma, very pleasing and complex taste.

Cubaney Solera Reserve

Very simple, very smart I love aroma of this rum, pure sugar cane with just i little touch of wood. This rum is not big or complicated, but I love its concept. You get very l

Old Vatted Demerara (OVD) Dark

Bargain Great rum for the money. Clean taste that doesnt excite you, nor bores you.

Legendario Ron Anejo

Good for mixing One of my favourite añejos, makes nice cuba libre. I dont mind sipping it time to time. Good Cuban rum taste representation.

Havana Club Anejo Especial

Price is right Quite enjoyable on rocks. Good for mixing. Very good choice in this price level.

Mauritius Club Dark

Cherry baby Very intensive cherry aroma in nose. After smelling it I expected it to be much sweeter so it was a pleasant surprise for me as it got milder in mouth

La Hechicera Extra Anejo

Not for everyone Its very specific in nose as well as in mouth. People who enjoy aromatic rums will love its smoothness and fruity taste. People who look for something

Pyrat XO Reserve

You love it or you hate it Very specific combination of so much citrus (in nose and the mouth) and still pretty harsh taste gives personality to this rum and I like that. It is

Beach House Spiced

Fits the name This is something i would have in my beach house rum cabinet (if I had one :D). One of the best spices I tasted, yet I am not a big fan of spices. It

Atlantico Private Cask

Another sweet pleaser with no personality Yes the rum is good...but it tastes the same like so many others. I am very subjective with my rankings, I think thats the point. I want a rum to tell

Atlantico Platino

Matusalem Platino

One of few One of few white rums I enjoyed drinking straight. Very smooth, very pleasant, very rum-like. Of course there are batter ones, but not for this price.

nice sipping rum Significant and long lasting bourbon aftertaste. Otherwise pretty typical representative for Dominican aged rums.

Legendario Elixir de Cuba

Great for ladies or as a digestif time to time Very sweet but not only sweet, it also has some taste, which is nice. Almost every girl loves it....Hard to miss with this one.

Very intense Very very very intense rum. Bold combination of spiciness and harshness. Many people will think its spiced, but its actually aged 6-8 years in america

Atlantico Reserva

Too harsh Not a bad rum with some nice aromas. Needs to breathe for a while or some rocks to be thrown in. I personally prefer letting it breathe. Nice in nose,

Cubay Anejo Suave

Ron Zacapa 23 Solera

Too expensive I dont like Zacapa 23 becuase its overpriced. The rum is quite nice but in my opinion it belongs 1 level lower in the cost range.

Diplomatico Reserva

Poor guy Standing in the shade of his older and so much more popular brother... Never really liked it maybe beacause i always compare it to 12 in my head.

Okay... Not bad, it is a quality rum. But didnt find anything interesting in it. I always try to reveal the personality of the rum im tasting, trying to under

Don Papa Small Batch

very sheepish about this one Maybe over-infused is the right word? Really dont know what to think. If I blind tasted it I would swear to god its spiced, yet its aged...Very wierd

Too empty Really didnt find anything in this one, only alcoholic and caramel aroma, thats all. Kind of disappointed.

80 wants to kill you, 60 want to hurt you Very unpleasant experience, artificial aroma and taste. Might work pretty well as throat desinfection product...

Don't... Very synthetic, industrial-like taste that makes you frown. Works in hot drinks, thats it.

Stroh Original 80

80 speaks for itself Undrinkable straight. Usable in hot drinks. In my opinion not a rum...

No comment needed... Imagine a worse/cheaper version of CM spiced gold...

No way... To be honest I had no idea that this is considered a rum. Its not even an acceptable liqueur... Rum? No way!

What spiced should not taste like... Chaotic mixture of little bit of everything drowning in a pool of sugar. No thanks. Super synthetic taste, nothing pleasant in this rum.
