Din orice punct de vedere nu se merita incercat. La banii astia poti cumpara alt rom mult mai bun.

Un rom... Simplu.. Nimic deosebit, nimic deranjant.. Fără pretenții, fără poveste. O simplă aromă de rom și doar atât.

This was recommended by my local liquor store owner when my daughter was picking me up a dark rum for a gift. I gave it a 6 only because I gave Myers a 5 and I like it slightly more than Myers but will not purchase for myself. As everyone says, a sweet black rum but to me leaves a bitter coating on my tongue after drinking straight up. Definitely a "mixer only" to me. I did finish off the bottle so as not to hurt the daughters feelings but won't purchase again.

So I prefer Kraken whenever I drink Black rum. However the place I went to tonight offered a Dark N' Stormy made with Gosling's Black Seal which is a Bermuda black rum. It's a nice rum with a very sweet flavor that blends well with the tartness of the ginger ale. It's a nice rum to have as a mixer but in all honesty I probably wouldn't have this straight or on the rocks. It's not a sipping rum because it is sweet. It also doesn't have the complex flavors that other black rums have. It's a decent rum and one that I did enjoy but it may not be the right choice for everyone.

Lekker voor in een Dark&Stormy maar puur niet zo fijn.

I had tried this at a bar in a Dark N' Stormy thought it tasted like soot. After drinking half of it, I had the bartender to it if with more ginger beer and it was still horrible.

Decent supper. Nice flavor but nothing that sets it apart.

This stuff is not bad, a bit of molasses similar to a Black Strap type of rum. Good with a splash or heck a dousing of Coke.

Cinnamon, nutmeg and caramel nose with burnt caramel finish.

Smells good, tastes okay on ice, best rum I've had with cola. Not too expensive at £24.
