RumX community voice

RumX users rate Jamaica highly at 8.3/10, celebrating vivid ester aromas, tropical fruit, and serious character. Crowd favorites include Hampden’s Pure Single Jamaican Rum (including Overproof), Smith & Cross for value-packed “funk,” and Appleton 12 Rare Blend for balance and approachability. Great House vintages draw praise for depth, while some blends read smoother and less estery—ideal for beginners. Overall: big flavors, strong community love, and standout versatility.
