Pyrat Cask 1623

I would never spend this much on a bottle no matter what it is. But while on vacation in the BVI's I got to have a taste of it at a tasting bar. It was smooth but tasted like an orange liquor. It tasted nothing like rum, so what's the point.

It was intense, complex, sweet flavour, perfect to finish a diner in the Caribbean with a nice cigar...

if you think the pyrat XO reserve is great you would love the pyrat cask. Very long taste after drinking, amazing taste

It's compared to the Pyrat XO the perfect balance of the orange flavour. It is very smooth and oily to sip and the age of up to 40 years makes this rum to a very long lasting joy.

It's quite an expensive price for a rum where you don't know exactly the percentage of rum that really has been aged for 40 years of this bottle. One would assume that with the growing demand of rum, the percentage of long aged rum will decrease and younger aged rums will take over.

love it. A great treat. Love to sip and watch the sun go down.

This is (at the moment) the best rum I have tasted.
It has it all: rich flavors, long aftertaste and enough sugar to satisfy my sweet taste.
It is also the most expensive rum i have bought - and for the price I should not give it a 10 but an 8 maybe.
It has the same orange flavor as the Pyrat XO Rum. But is much richer, witch you should expect at 5 times the price.
overpriced? maby - excelent yes!

I bought a bottle of this in the Bahamas when we were down for Rum Bahamas. It seems thinker and sweeter than the XO. A very good sipper, but not one of my absolute favorites for the price. A good bottle to have in an extensive collection.

I received this as a gift from a vendor. I only will have a sip on occasion to make it last longer. (ok a few fingers) It's a tasty rum but wayyy over priced. I certainly would not buy this for myself.

Excellent alternative to a Cognac. Perfect on a cold winter's night or anytime. Price has skyrocketed. Probably won't buy again. Savor what you have.

...for the price! Definitely better than drinking the "regular" Pyrat, however, because a LOT more refined and is sippable! However, I prefer El Dorado 21, Flor di Cana 18, and Zacapa XO to this which is typically significantly less expensive...
BUT, IF you have a rum bar at home, this bottle and packaging looks so impressive on the bar, plus it is pretty tasty!
