Pyrat XO Reserve

A tough one to rate. Enjoyable on its own, but I actually prefer to mix this one. It's smooth but not full of flavour

Great bottle design. Lovely smooth taste and perfect for a long drink.

Wonderful golden rum aroma that just doesn't deliver. Harsh burn made it almost impossible to drink neat. Price makes it really too expensive to make cocktails.

You can drink it straight if you're feeling classy or mix it with Coke, but this shit will fuck you up either way. It's a quality rum that's worth the premium cost!

After some time a bit better, but still nothing to write home about ...

Very citrusy and mild. If you want to start sipping a rum but never have this is the perfect one to start with. Not bold or rich enough in taste for me but certainly is pleasurable.

Has a slight orangey taste....which I personally like as I like oranges. This is a light rum and can be addictive. Is it a top flight rum? No..but it's good to keep Pyrat around the house just to have as a "house rum". Pricing for this rum is a real plus. Just bought another bottle.

Was expecting more caramel out this supposedly sweet rum. Got mouth full of orange and peach. Really good if you like oranges but if you prefer your rums with vanilas and caramel stay away.

It has a floury and strong flavour, not too sweet, overall a bit too dense for me.

This rum has a back bite I have noticed in recent bottles. It normally has a buttery smoothness and finish but it seems to have a bad bite and artificial taste to it.
