    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members praise its easy-drinking Spanish style and sweet caramel-vanilla profile. The nose shows caramel, toffee and raisin; the palate brings vanilla, honeyed sweetness and clear barrel notes with a warm, medium finish. At 40% ABV, it's approachable and often enjoyed neat with friends. Some note a woody bite and molasses-forward taste, but with 43 reviews and only 3,000 bottles, it’s a rising, gentle sipper.

    Retasting and leaving the original note 😊 This is a really good rum and also one for beginners because the proof is lower than normal. Easy to drink and enjoy with friends that may not like the more biting rums. The nose is sweet with the barrel to it and then some caramel. The palate is heavily influenced by the molasses and it almost ruins the taste for me. Fruity and the barrel is clearly there. The finish is sweet and medium long with a touch of fruits and oak.

    An entry-level rum in the Spanish style. Caramel on the nose, honey/vanilla on the palate. The finish is spicy and woody. I won't be buying it though, there are better rums in this price range, but it's still a good rum.

    The first rum I could drink neat, a pleasure to smell and taste, today the bottle is finished and I could not have enjoyed it more.
