How does this rum taste?
Kirk and Sweeney XO Rum is distilled in the Dominican Republic at the Bermudez distillery using molasses in a column still, resulting in a rich spirit with an ABV of 65.5%. This rum is renowned for its inviting aroma of caramel, spice, and toffee, while notes of vanilla and spice dominate its palate, complemented by hints of oak and roasted tones. Users appreciate its complex, smooth profile and recommend allowing it to rest before tasting, emphasizing the balance between sweet, spicy, and woody flavors. While considered a premium option with a higher price, it's praised for its exceptional quality and depth, making it a favorite among aficionados and a star in 3 Badge Mixology's lineup.

A great start to the tasting evening! Of course, this is unmistakably a Dominican, but an unusually strong one, without the alcohol being noticeable at all. A few drops of water make it even more accessible, with apricot and barrel notes in balance. Not my preferred style, but certainly drinkable and therefore recommended for special occasions - if you don't have to watch the pennies ... (bottle price now exorbitantly high)
Just had another go at this rum and knowing now, that it needs to rest for around 30 minutes, it scored better this time. A very rich and full bodied rum with a nice long strong finish. There is a nice vanilla and molasses hint to it throughout and the price definitely matches the quality. Remember to rest it to get the full experience.
Liquid Crème Brûlée, what a treat. The heavy wood influence and some spices on top make a really complex and balanced drop. This is definitely my favourite Rum from the Dominican Republic by far and I am not really a fan of their style usually.
Wow, what can I say. Simply a mega rum. Caramelly on the nose as well as on the palate, almost like a Creme Brülle. You don't taste the alcohol so strongly. Important: Leave to rest a little in the glass
