Complex dried fruit and caramel aromas lead to a spicy, roasted, woody palate with hints of chocolate. Well-integrated 60.2% ABV keeps it approachable, though some find it sweet and atypical.

    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members praise this Saint Lucia release for its complex dried-fruit and caramel nose with vanilla. On the palate, caramel-led spice meets roasted, woody tones, with recurring hints of dark chocolate and coffee. Despite 60.2% ABV, reviewers report smooth, well-integrated heat. Some note a profile leaning Barbados/Foursquare. Popular with 70 reviews, it’s a confident pick for flavorful, balanced sipping.

    Unusually sweet and drinkable St Lucia! Could pass blind as a Venezuela single cask. Nice notes of caramel, dark chocolate, herbs and hay, fruit bread and dried fruit and then some cappuccino, black pepper and coconut on the finish! I like it and it's easy to drink, but overall it somehow reminds me more of Foursquare or Venezuela than of St Lucia... Could totally pass for Foursquare or Venezuela blind. Still very tasty!

    Second tasting: overall impression much weaker today (-5) Nose: Wow! Super complex! A mixture of Agricole and Guyana, great! Mouth: sweet and spicy and also super complex, I like it very much! Finish: continues with an emphasis on dark chocolate It's hard for me to capture everything this rum has to offer, but it's one of the best I've tasted so far. There is still enough in my sample for a second tasting 😁

    Calendrier de l’Avent Rum Friendly Club, jour 5. Un nez pâtissier avec de la vanille, de la poire blette et d’autres fruits jaunes, de l’alcool et du bois de cèdre bien présents. L’entrée de bouche est alcoolisée mais aussi aromatique avec les mêmes qu’au nez. L’alcool est un peu trop marqué pour l’expression des fruits mais il donne une très belle vivacité à ce rhum. La finale est un peu courte mais s’y exprime une certaine douceur avec une petite acidité qui donne de l’équilibre à la fin.

    I like Chairmans, and this is a good one. Fruity Caramel, complex but in good balance. The end is quite woody, though.
