Sweet, fruity, and easy to sip—think liquid bonbon pastry.

    How does this rum taste?

    • Très (TROP) doux, facile à boire
    • Nez bien équilibré sur la gourmandise
    • Un rhum agréable à boire à l'apéritif

    Carnival Barbados Rum from West Indies distillery, bottled by Sun Juice, comes across as an easy-going crowd-pleaser with a sweet and fruity profile dominating the experience—think tropical fruit, coconut, and caramel, with banana and brioche on the nose. Multiple reviewers, like Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪, note it is "clairement trop sucré à mon goût," while Morgan Garet describes it as "très (TROP) doux, facile à boire, fruité et patissier." Expect a soft, candy-like sip that leans patisserie and feels very approachable, though some find the sweetness and reduction a step too far, giving it a bonbon-like and almost "arôme artificiel" character.

    "Tastes sweet, with a sweet wine finish or simply sweetened. Also sweet grapes and discreet Christmas spices."

    "Notes prises lors du Rhum Fest 2024,
Notes rapides et palais un peu lourd, désolé :) 
On a ici : gourmand, fruité, un peu de coco Un rhum : abordable, plutot axé débutant Finale : gourmande, longueur moyenne Belle découverte"

    "Très (TROP) doux, facile à boire, fruité et patissier. En bouche on sent la réduction avec un côté aqueux, c'est dommage. Sinon cela reste un rhum agréable à boire à l'apéritif. Prix élevé pour le niveau. En dessous du jamaicain et du blend belize/Guatemala"

    "Nez bien équilibré sur la gourmandise, alcool présent mais discret, fruits frais. En bouche, c’est du bonbon ! On tombe dans le paquet de bonbons sucrés, limite arôme artificiel, c’est beaucoup trop ! Cela reste plaisant mais c’est une sucrerie pas du rhum 🍹. Finale courte sur le sucre"
