Nice smooth blackstrap rum, though it does taste a little plain. Great for mixing and decent for drinking neat. However, I would prefer kraken and Capt Morgan Black over this one for drinking neat. Nice overall (and nice to have on hand for variety).

Gosling's Black Seal is a nice black rum and is a 7. It has a nice sweet and smooth taste.

Bij vrienden een nieuwe rum. Prima te doen, maar het wordt niet een favoriet

I'm going a bit against the grain here but I think this rum is excellent and greatly underestimated. It is true that it makes excellent Dark'N Stormy's, but also very good neat or on ice. Very unique if you are looking for something a bit different.

When i hear "Dark rum" i think of Gosling's Black Seal. What you expect is inside the bottle. Makes a great Dark and Stormy and is packed with lots of flavor in general for any other use you might think of.

Expected a bit more, the flavor is caramel but not very rich and goes away quickly.

Terrible alcohol smell and flavour, nothing additional sensable when you drink it...

First time I’ve tried this rum, very dark and subtle flavour. Will try it in a dark and stormy.

Very dark colour. Lots of flavouring, caramel with a touch of vanilla. Great sipper with a bit of ice.
