In general this rum is good and smooth good sipper. For its sweetnes and price it got not enough full body taste. Since its sweet and well known rum it tend to be overrated - yes there are better rums for its price.
Aroma: Sweetness dominates , then kinda fruity
Taste: Nice and smooth in begginnig due to its sweetness, little fruity then nothing big.
Compared to:
Pampero anniverasario: Pampero is cheaper, in taste its more full but less sweet.
Plantation 20yo anni.: For little more money you got much more in taste and aroma, plantation is little less sweet aswell

I was excited to try a dram as seing a lot of popularity over this one.

Very very, sweet aroma. Taste wise the flavour to me was strong amounts of honey.

One of the best tasting rums ive ever had, super smooth no need to put ice or mix it with anything. Has a light hint of vanilla which makes it interesting in my opinion. This rum is perfect to sip little by little and it doesnt give you a hungover the next morning. Love love love👏🏼👏🏼
Cool bottle btw

This is just sugared alcohol. One of the worst drops I have ever tasted. Even if I would like it I would not buy it - because they add sugar afterwards.

This is delicious and I would use it to get people into rum. It's incredibly smooth. But after a while and after you've experienced enough rums you may start to find this just a bit too sweet and you may even wonder, did they put some extra sugar in here?

This rum is a great place to start entering the world of rum. In fact I think it is one of the rums (along with Ron Zacapa 23 solera and Eldorado 12/15 to name a few) responsible for the rum community expanding.
It is easy to drink with it's relatively low %. It's taste of honey, vanilla, and light spices makes it a good starting point for most people.
- you will most likely like this rum - and eventually want something more :-)

Very good, vanilla and spice. God att dricka som den är.

As the title. Heavy vanilla. Thick siropy mouthfeel. Very very smooth but not suprising with the large amount of sugar added. Marketing got it wrong here. I think they forgot to add the word "liqueur" on the label.

I am surprised by the high average mark, but from the top:
Nice bottle, decent price.
Nose: sweet caramel and vanilla, lots of vanilla
Mouth: Dominated by vanilla, an amount that cannot come from a bourbon cask alone. Sweet figs somwhere in there. Very smooth.
Finish: gentle, almost no burn.

While I like a decent demerara rum like Zacapa and El Dorado this is way over the top for me. The vanilla kills the other aromas and feels artificial.

Tried a bottled of this, pretty sweet, but a good starter rum for sipping. I think the Ron Zacapa 23 was a little more balanced, but their both solid choices for sweetened sipping rums.
