    Relaxed Barbados but why 10g dosage?😪

    Free sample time. A little thin and artificial, not my cup of tea.

    Trade fair tasting, therefore shorter: Barbados standard in top form, very round sweetness, fruity as expected. The port remains very subtle but blends in nicely.

    this rum brings a lot to the table. it possesses some interesting notes, particularly cake and licorice, and they serve their purpose well. what i find unfortunate is the lack of vibrancy in the rum. there is a 10 g/L dosage that could be blamed for this, but i also find the wood aging to take more of a backseat than i would like. the finish is also subtle, though pleasant and ethereal. overall, this is a fine rum, but perhaps not entirely worth its price point of $65. it has some unreached potential.
