How does this rum taste?
Reviewers love the warm and intense dried fruit and spice notes in Caribbean Rum 1842, with some finding the flavor reminiscent of dark Guyana rums and even festive whiskies. Many mention its natural sweetness, oiliness, and a long, warming finish, making it a good choice to sip slowly or share on special occasions. Despite a few critiques of thinness and sharpness, most find it surprisingly good for the price and worth trying if you enjoy bold, woody rums.

Tasting in Blåvand mit der Legende! Toller Rum, sehr warm und intensiv mit Aromen von Rosinen, Pflaume und Gewürzen. Erinnert mich an eine Weihnachts-Abfüllung eines Whiskys, mit 68% ordentlich Bums aber ohne die Schärfe, sehr gut eingebunden und ausgebaut! Danke @kevin für das Sample!
Brought down by a sharp mouthfeel and more than few off notes (metallic, industrial)
