How does this rum taste?
Most reviewers turn to Black Seal Rum for its greatness in a Dark 'n' Stormy, repeatedly calling it the perfect mixer for this iconic cocktail. Expect rich molasses, licorice, and spice on both the nose and palate, along with touches of coffee and vanilla. While some sip it neat, most enjoy it mixed, praising its value and bold profile. It's a worthy buy if you're after a reliable, flavorful cocktail base.

Not recommended for neat drinking, but perfect in my favorite drink, Dark ‘n’ Stormy. The nose is round and spicy with scents of molasses and vanilla. At the palate and during the medium long finish it’s spicy, round, warm and sweet with flavors of molasses, vanilla, clove and cinnamon.

Having a try at my older stuff again. This is from my cocktail reserve, and it shines in that role assuredly. Sipped pure I immediately get sweetness and prune, reminder of Christmas baking flavours. The sweetness and prune do mask the low ABV a bit, and it does not taste as thin as expected. I would rather call it a liquor, as of now. Very sweet. Good for Cocktails, I believe.
I don't really like this place. Nice rum bar here in Oldenburg, but you can forget the rums :-( Much too sweet for a rum, chocolate and coffee stand out here. There are far better ones in this price category.
