Fantastic Cuban rum. I tried this at a rum tasting event over zoom and it was incredible. This history of this rum is fascinating and very complex . Tasting notes had a dry start not tobacco, followed by chilli peppers and finishing with cacao ... I think Foursquare is a nicer spiced rum if you prefer sweeter but for dry lovers out there , this is the stuff
