"Very distinctive rum. I cannot say it is a good rum, but it is full of curious olfactory surprises. In my opinion it renders better in the nose than in the mouth. Many nuances on the nose, coffee and well-roasted caramel predominate on the palate with a faint woody note. Medium finish with coffee predominating. The banana that I felt lightly on the nose disappeared on the palate. Fun rum for an out-of-the-box tasting."

"This rum saw the light of day when Pusser’s looked over its range some years ago. Before the “Blue Label” was available in a version with a 54,5% ABV. This stronger rum was then renamed “Gunpowder Proof” and the new “Blue Label” gained a strength of 40%, or 42% in some markets. Over time its been found in various blends. Initially with rum from Guyana, Trinidad and Barbados. Then with rum from Guyana and Trinidad and finally nowadays it just contain rum from Guyana. The one reviewed here is the latter. Overall it’s a quite rich and full-bodied everyday rum that is very good value for money."

"A Dirchschnittsrum as it stands in the book. Has a spicy nose in which wood is also recognizable. On the palate, the barrel clearly dominates. You can also detect coffee, toffee, dark chocolate and spice. Solid."

"Seems like a young rum from Guyana, which is still too strong with a biting and pungent alcohol plume. Smells quite sharp at the beginning, has very briefly reminded of a spicy mustard or herbs :-D But typical notes are already recognizable, such as the unmistakable woody and toasty chocolate-caramel-fruit mix. In the mouth a bit thin and mild, if then a bit spicy and sweet, but definitely roasty and chocolaty. In the finish sweet, fruity and toasty."
