When this is drunk the way it's meant to be drunk, ie 30% bundy and 70% coke/ginger beer with mates around a camp fire on a cold winters night, this is a great drink, and probably the only rum most aussies have ever had. In this setting it's perfectly acceptable and i would happily get blind on it and have done so on many an occasion. A fine, well aged sipping rum it ain't 🤪 drunk neat it's as rough as guts, however this is basically unheard of in Australia unless being done so by skulling straight out of the bottle, as a dare on your 21st birthday!! I have very fond memories of such youthful stupidity😉 If you havnt been brought up on this rum I can completely understand how you would find it an abomination!🤣🤣
Definitely a mixer.
Then you can also put a fahradaschlauch in vodka... This does not have much to do with rum
Tasted 29-01-2017 This is my hell in a rum , pure aniseed flavour that takes over everything and it sadly a flavour I despise.
