“Like most of the Riise range this rum is also kind of sweet. The first release of three XO Founders Reserve. Not a bad rum parse but I would have loved more kick with a higher ABV. Fruity and vegetal with a roasting note to it.”

“It is a sweeter rum from a limited edition of three. Overall sales were so great that the company decided to expand with 3 more editions.”
