    Whisky & Rom Festival 2023 28.10.2023 Another retaste and it still performs pretty well. Price to quality is pretty good. ------------------------- This is a very nice and easy sipping rum from Mount Gay. A typical Bajan rum in nose and palate. The nose is elegant with spice, a bit of orange and charred barrel. The palate starts off with a bit of sweetness, spicy and a bit dry. There is some leather and earthyness to it as well. The finish is medium long, dry and with charred oak and ginger. Again a tiny bit of earthyness on the way out.

    Burns despite 43%. Nice vanilla

    Super "daily" sipper! Update: Of the affordable and always available, still my favorite Barbados rum.

    A top Barbados rum and a classic among the unsweetened rums. Great aromas that are familiar from Barbados and which are enhanced by the different barrels. Rather on the dry side, but with a pleasant sweetness at first.
