How does this rum taste?
Most enjoy its dry wood, dried fruits and value; some find the nose too alcoholic and the profile a bit simple. Consensus: well-made, sugar-free everyday rum with a nice Madeira twist.
If you’re moving from sweetened rums into drier territory, this is an easy upgrade: honest, sugar-free, good price, and just enough Madeira character to keep it interesting.
Those wanting a sweet, soft sipper or very complex, funky profiles; drinkers sensitive to bitter oak or slightly sharp, alcoholic noses.

This English Harbour series (Sherry, Port, Madeira) are probably the best cheap rums you can get. Very solid rums for very good price. I always recommend it to beginners that want something sugarless.
Nose wood, spicy, a little Madeira; great on the tongue: lots of wood, more wood, subtle sweetness, nicely complex towards the back, a little spicy, but very exciting
Good rum. Very good value for money. Slightly alcoholic on the palate but still quite balanced. Lots of caramel and tropical fruits. I recommend tasting although my favorite remains the sherry cask finish.
