Top review from Decky Hicks Doughty:

"The nose is very soft. There's a little wood with subtle black pepper amd brown sugar notes. Something similar to almond lingers in the background. The palate is more vibrant than I expected. No real wood notes and it's on the sweeter side but not artificial. There's lots of honey and ginger. There's something of a fruity breakfast pastry about it. The finish is very short. And not much to comment on. A bit of a let down, some pepper and caramel stays for a time. Overall this is a nice rum. A typical, good, Barbados rum. I'd be happy to have it again."
