My first impression as it hit the tongue was that this is spicy. As I let it sit for a moment I get an oak flavor that turn to vanilla as the rum goes down. What a treat this is to be sipped on the rocks. I’m not sure that this will go into many mixed drinks, it is delicious straight

An elegant Rum from Barbados that has an aromatic birth with notes of cane sugar, wood, herbs & spices; while a rich life adds notes of caramel & vanilla; that led to a balanced death of medium length. June 2016 / 2017
