At the price this rum comes at it's a really decent rum actually. The nose is heavy with spices and a touch of fruits and nuts. The palate is sweet with spices and frimuity followed by a gentle touch of oak, caramel and chocolate. The finish is medium long and sweet with spices. A very good beginners rum that I usually bring to tastings for beginners and it's usually a hit.
