i bought some more bayou rums after the pleasant surprise i had with bayou spiced.
Unfortunately this one was not that great. Honest for the price but needs more aging.
There is some oak adds a more bourbonish taste- maybe also some hints of molasses.
The body is more solid maybe, rather than complex
The aftertaste exists somehow.
Its not so much for sipping but its still a great mixer at a right price.

Maybe my review is biased because i had great expectations on bayou. Maybe is that im 90% into sipping rather than into mixing. To be honest im not regret for buying it but i wont buy another one

Went to a New Orleans event. Bayou rum. 3 cocktails. All excellent. Rum has good bite and good flavor. Recommended

It’s not the best rum I’ve tasted, but it’s still very pleasant to drink.
I find the banana, the fresh cane, but also the caramel and a hint of vanilla.
There is a good smell of tobacco and black tea at the end.
I recommend this rum, it’s quite unusual in terms of origins and its taste.

This rum is meant for mixing and not to be sipped. Good for a rum and cola.

One of the best I've ever had. Not at all harsh with a lovely rum taste. I drink it neat. Jack Sparrow would definitely ask "But why is the rum gone!?" with this Lousiana rum. It's gone because I drank it!!

The bottle lured me in and the taste didn’t disappoint. Thankfully my new local Asda take their rums seriously

Like the white version, this is a fairly smooth for the mix. But I prefer this brown one. Flavors like banana, caramel and vanilla are the first thing that comes to mind.

Překvapivě dobrý a za rozumnou cenu. Ale již ho nebudu vyhledávat.

Zapach: Melasa, wanilia, beczka, cukierki kukułki. Zapach jest średnio intensywny ale przyjemny.

Smak: Cukierki kukułka, karmel, melasa, nuty ananasa, trochę kakao. Cały czas towarzyszy nam wyraźna słodycz a także rozgrzewający Alkohol.

Mimo braku deklaracji wieku Rum nie sprawia wrażenia młodego, ale zakładam że nie leżakował zbyt długo. Ewidentnie jest to trunek jakościowy, użyto do jego maturacji dobrej jakości beczek Nie jest to też rum przesadzony bądź sztuczny - a tego się trochę obawiałem. Jako nabywcy otrzymujemy produkt dorosły, graficznie ciekawie zapakowany który śmiało można spożywać solo.

Niestety ma też minusy - jak to stany zjednoczone Ameryki mają w zwyczaju całość wieńczy sztuczny gumowy korek (ale to pierdoła - czepiam się). Największym moim zdaniem problemem jest wyraźny posmak alkoholu po przełknięciu. Cena jaką zapłaciłem w Makro - Około 90pln uważam za dobrze dobraną i nie przesadzoną.

Ocena: 79/100

I’m also a bourbon drinker so when I found this one I was excited. It’s an excellent rum.
