I think this is definitely a top choice for sipping. Not too sweet or overly flavored. Smooth and easy to enjoying particularly with a nice cigar.

A really soft and gentle rum, fruity and sweet. At the Price a very decent rum, a good sipper, and great for desserts.

Had a few rounds of this at a bar in the dominican republic. It's a good rum with a nice and soft scent of caramel and figs. The palette offer notes of burt sugar, oak and caramel, with a rather smoothe finish. Good value.

I am perhaps taken in by the products of other islands, or maybe I have been seduced by rums in other price points. But, I no longer see the Imperial as a sipping rum. It's solid, no doubt - with a shallower version of the characteristics of newer rums from other producers. But, it doesn't light my fire.

Rum is a mixer. Although it has nice flavors, this rum lacks depth and it has an overly alcoholic

A great rum for the price. Notes of oak, coconut, brown sugar, and vanilla. Makes for a good sipper.

Smooth mouth and throat feel. Just a tad to sweet for sipping purposes. Carmel, vanilla, light plum, and raisin flavors. Short finish with a hint of brown sugar. Overall, a nice, well rounded, everyday sipping rum but still somewhat forgettable.

I'm sorry, how much is this rum? Yes, please! Great Spanish style rum. Hint of sweetness. I'm a big fan of Dominican rums, and I think I'm starting to lean Barcelo over Brugal, although I love the higher end of Brugal's rums. On the other hand, this blows Brugal XV and 1888 out of the water.
