How does this rum taste?
Most enjoy it as a cheap, easy mixer with vanilla, caramel and light wood. Critics find it thin, hot and a bit characterless neat. Consensus: solid value, mainly for cocktails.
If you like simple, honest mixers and want to step up from basic supermarket rum, this gives you real Barbados character cheaply, as long as you’re not expecting sipping-level complexity.
Sippers chasing depth or beginners sensitive to alcohol burn who want a very smooth, rich, slow-drinking rum.

What began as a digital tasting diary is now the world's most comprehensive platform for rum fans: over 24,000 bottlings, 270,000+ independent reviews, and an active community with 50,000 members. We combine the collective intelligence of our community with an integrated marketplace, allowing you to shop securely and manage your collection directly from the app.
The goal? To offer you, the rum connoisseur, a place where you can choose with confidence—without paperwork, detours, or expert jargon.
