How does this rum taste?
Most find a simple, drinkable vanilla-caramel rum with light fruit. Critics note alcoholic sharpness, ashtray notes and short finish. Consensus: okay value starter, but many better options exist.
If you’re just starting out and like sweet, simple rums, this works as an easy first bottle—but once your palate grows, you’ll likely move on to more characterful options.
Enthusiasts chasing complexity, funk or long finishes, and anyone sensitive to alcoholic sharpness expecting a super-soft 40% sipper.

At the price this rum comes at it is a great rum. Also a rum good for beginners and mixer if needed.
For 40% very alcoholic sharp. Otherwise, a classic, unspectacular "rum".See but not why I should buy the, there are a lot of better alternatives for the same price.
Very balanced and simply drinkable. Nothing spectacular or memorable, but well suited for an evening glass.
Nice aromas but a little flat and short
