Very smoothly - exceeded expectations. Not sweet, well flavored - I am drinking it neat and really enjoying it. Strong enough to slightly numb the tongue. An enjoyable surprise.

Nice nose, sweet, brown sugar, caramelized banana? Sweet and unctuous on the tongue. Pleasingly long finish.
Great rum with a smooth finish. Is a bit of a mix between a rum and whiskey. Overall pleasant drink
A decent rum. Not a straight sipper, but bought a bottle as a mixer
