The Coruba N.P.U. Overproof rum hails from Jamaica, distilled from molasses, and carries a formidable 74% alcohol by volume. Many users appreciate its robust and full-bodied profile, which masterfully combines sweet and fruity aromas with a strong alcoholic edge. While its taste is often characterized as sweet, medicinal, with notes of caramel and nuttiness, it walks a fine line between potency and smoothness. Ideal for cocktails, some prefer it neat while acknowledging that it provides strong, bold flavors suitable for the adventurous. Despite mixed ratings, its blend of traditional Jamaican rum characteristics appeals to those who enjoy a potent spirit.

"Got a sample of this rum from the RR Tasting Club. Coruba is a blended pot still as well as column still rum distilled and matured by Wray & Nephew, whereafter it’s sent to Switzerland for blending, some more maturation and filling. Overall an strong, potent and full bodied rum that’s remarkable smooth and mild at the same time."
"Tasted dry, then in cocktails 🍹 A good overproof jam, but a bit pricey for what it is. I'll stick with my Wray & Nephew without hesitation! After that, it's a great Daiquiri, especially at Carbon (Lille)."
"Poor rum, nice to collection, but not good fór Taste."
"Pungent, good in mixing, but I prefer OFTD"
