I drank it in a whisky glass so not great. The smell is not great and it smell like a cheap mixing rum. Once you drink it it reacts like a bourbon. long taste but not complex at All. Just the taste of caramel lasting. The Finish is the part I don't like. Very plain. Only the caramel/ honey traste but no complexity

Nice smooth rum, much flavour. Almost like bourbon oak taste. Sweet sugarcane nose

Je serai difficilement objectif. Je l'ai dΓ©couvert en fumant un Siglo VI et ce fut un sacrΓ© bon moment en compagnie d'un bon ami. Il faudrait le rΓ©essayer dans un autre contexte. Une sensation de bourbon agrΓ©able.

Coming from a person in their early 20's, this is a nice change of pace from Captain Morgan, with a nice price tag as well. One of my go to drinks when I'm at the liquor store

on first taste I almost thought I was sipping a smokey whiskey...agree with the bourbon comparisons...too good for anything but sipping

definitely a rum to change up the pace a bit. I get the bourbon conparisons and agree but also felt it had a nice flavour and played well with others in cocktails that called for Barbados rum.

I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this. Dark, rich with great run attributes. A very good subtle sweetness.

This is a nice mixer. In the mouth when you try it neat it is is smoky, woody with citrus hints.

Mixed with cokeir gingebeer and you're onto a winner and the notes of the rum will compliment it well.

In reading some of the other reviews, I would have to agree that it does have a bit of an oakiness. A fairly clean rum but not a lot of body as compared to others.

Drinkable but XO is better value. Can drink straight up or mix.
