Noxx & Dunn 2-4-5

Herbal light taste Sweet and a bit woody. Not a sipper but nice with sprite. Gold light colour. Neet smell not sweet not alcohol too much. A special herbal light taste

Bacardi is not for me. With its dark colour I was expecting a more pronounced taste. It smells a bit the oak drum but has a medicine like after taste. It's good for mixing.

Barbancourt Pango

Sweet punch As far as rum goes, this rum is more of a punch. It has more taste than a traditional ti-ponch (sugar sweet) because of the mango and piña. It is ok t

Plantation 2005 St. Lucia

Not smooth The Grand Terroirs has an oak smell, it taste like alcohol and is harsh. Not a great rum for me who likes the sweetness.

Flor de Caña 18-year

Not what I was hoping for. For an aged rum, it still remains a bit of the hay taste of typical agricultural rums. Not to my liking. The bottle is classy.

Cruzan 9 Spiced

Vanilla extravaganza This rum is only good in drinks where the extra vanilla taste is not detrimental to the drink. The vanilla is too much.

Barcelo Gran Anejo

Not a colourful flavour The bottle is nice. The smell is of alcohol. No specific smell. The taste is neutral. No spice and not specificity. Unusual for Dominican rums. It is

Saint James Royal Ambre 18-Mois

Ok agricultural rum Smell of tobacco. The hay taste is not too present. The finish is tobacco and sweet. It's better mixed with soda.

Mulata Elixir De Ron

Not the best flavoured rum Mulata Elixir de Ron Smells a little like tobacco. It has a amber colour. The taste is very sweet but hard to describe. This sweetness is it cherry?

Bacardi Gran Reserva 8-year

Not very good I’ve had worst Bacardi rum. I was expecting more from this one. Still not a very good rum. I come to the conclusion that Bacardi rums are not for me.

El Ron Prohibido Habanero 12-year

Bitterness This rum is not sweet. No caramel taste nor is it oaky. It masters only bitterness which is hardly diminished with soda..

Too much vanilla It looks like rum but it smells and tastes vanilla. Too much vanilla for sipping. The vanilla takes over your mouth. I would only have it for sweet dr

This is not a Cuban rum This rum is called Havana Club but it is not Cuban. It's Puerto Rican !!! They are stealing the name. It has no special taste nor smell. At best coul

Elements 8 Gold

Elegant name Nothing elegant about the rum itself. I found it harsh without significance nor specific traits.

Bacardi Oakheart

Cherry to mix No character. I think it was designed for drinks. With Sprite you can tastes the cherry flavour. It makes an ok drink.

Harsh on the tongue This rum has little character. It's a bit harsh on the sides of the mouth. Not a general bad taste but nothing special. It is ok to mix.

Leatherback Special Reserve

Ordinary rum The Leatherback rum at 57% alcohol has a nice amber colour. The taste has nothing fancy. It smells like Home Depot. It is ok mixed with soda.

Daufuskie Island Gold Edition

Artisanal but disappointing Daufuskie Island rum gold edition has a light golden colour. The taste is not harsh but has a strong agricultural hay taste that I personally dislike.

Tastes like solvent It's first impression it made me was that I was drinking toluene. It is more like a chemical solvent than rum. I do not recommend it at all. A very fa

Admiral Nelson's Black Patch

One of the worst This rum is a shame to the name. It's like a chemical liquid. I would say it should not even be used for flambés. It ruins the taste buds and the nose
