Grays Lazy Dodo Single Estate
Those who enjoy sweeter, gentle 40% rums and want an easy step up from very sugary brands, plus casual evening sippers looking for a relaxed, chocolatey-vanilla profile.
Live auctions
This rum is currently being offered by one of our verified auction house partners. RumX helps you discover and bid on rare rums.
How does this rum taste?
Most enjoy its sweet, woody vanilla-chocolate profile and relaxed character. Critics find it too watered down, simple and occasionally unbalanced. Consensus: a pleasant, unchallenging beginner rum if you like sweetness.
If you’re moving away from very syrupy rums but still want a sweet, easy sipper, this is a safe try—just don’t expect power or depth at 40%.
Enthusiasts seeking high complexity, dry profiles or higher ABV; anyone who dislikes sweetness or finds woody/cocoa notes and occasional off-notes off-putting.

Pleasant starter. Lots of dried plum and other dried fruits. Generally a very nice woody influence. Unfortunately a little too much sweetness for me. A very nice transitional rum to move from the totally sweet starters to the dry variants
Lecker, nicht zu süß. Mal was anderes!
Chutny rum s nasládlým až sladkým profilem. Ve vůni jde cítit karamel, tropické ovoce 🍋🟩, ananas a vanilka. V chuti jsou výrazná jablka, vanilka a celkově ovocná chuť.
The color is amber. The aroma is vanilla, caramel, dark chocolate, nuts, some dried fruits. The flavor is vanilla-chocolate, dried fruits are also present, the sweetness is balanced, the aftertaste is medium-long.
