Michael,
Listen, I'm an expert on rum. I can confirm that this is in fact, rum. Sippin' rum
Joseph,
I enjoyed this rum. The start was caramel and sweet but the taste turned to tobacco and leather. I would definitely sip this rum. Enjoyable for a relaxing beverage at the end of a long week.
Joe,
Good sipping rum definitely got the leather and Tabacco note probably from the bourbon barrels nice notes of fruit Carmel citrus and ginger. Light spicy taste - spiral was spot on
Thomas,
Didn’t taste like a rum. Had a nice leathery sweet taste. It was smooth but i was hoping for more of a spicy taste
Alex,
Another rum that could be confused as a whiskey, in my opinion. The oaky bite is there up front but a lot of the fruit notes come in towards the end as well as the sugar cane sweetness. The banana they talk about does come through on the nose, and a little in the back end. Very interesting.
Jason,
A really smooth and interesting mix of caramel, tobacco, ginger and dozens of sweetnesses that ebb and flow with every sip.
Greg,
G: Nice sipping rum. Neat or with a circle rock. Not as complex as say an El Dorado 15. Hint of smoke which I enjoy.
M: smooth velvety rum. Too much tobacco/leather taste for my liking
Miles,
Smooth and tasty but not very complex. This is a nice run for sipping neat.
Tony,
I loved this rum. Never really had aged rum bit this made me a believer. Had some similar notes to whiskey or bourbon which was really appealing but with other unique flavors like a hint of banana.
Gary,
Nice sipping rum. Figgy, fruity with a touch of leather. The finish is smooth.
Henry,
Delicious rum worthy of sipping on its own. Leather and tobacco really come through.
Brian,
Smooth and subtle at first with a strong finish. Good mix of Carmel and spice with a leather aroma. An ok blend but not on my top ten list
Steve,
I was able to try this and it quickly became a hit. It’s not my favorite rum but it is in the top three. Very nice caramel and vanilla flavor with a hint of spice but smooth going down. I would recommend if you enjoy Rums
Brian,
Very smooth with vanilla and tobacco notes. A bit leathery but lovely to sip.
Benjamin,
Heavy tobacco and leather notes if you like that. The sweeter caramel and mango hints were lost on me.
Elizabeth,
Tried it on a large rock. It's a very good flavor, good for sipping. A sniff brings out tobacco and leather scents, as another reviewer mentioned which I thought was odd but sure enough, you can smell it. There is an end sweetness but I couldn't make it out. It is a nice rum. I definitely want this for my bar.
Andrew,
Not too spicy with heavy tobacco and leather notes... darn tasty
Brent,
Took me a lot of directions. Smokey sweetness for sure. Great nightcap!
Jason,
If you like rich molasses (which I do), then this is the rum for you. I'm not a huge rum guy, but this is drinkable neat. Warm sweetness dominates with a hint of banana on the back end. The caramel is not as dominant as the profile says. It is there up front but can be missed in the strong molasses note.
Daniel,
Solid rum. Definitely get the toffee/caramel but not so much banana. Heat is there but not unpleasant. The right amount of sweet for my tastes.
Pierre,
Strong overripe banana taste and a molasses background. Not very pleasant
Michael,
A slightly sweeter rum. I don’t taste majority of the flavor profile but it’s quite enjoyable
MIGUEL,
This is how rum is supposed to taste. Smooth and easy to drink with hints of wooden barrels. Sweet but not too sweet and no bad after taste like you get with cheaper bottles. Aged is the way to go and this is my new go to rum!
Kelli,
Definitely tasted the caramel, and a fruitiness that made this one a little milder. Good on its own, and think it would do well in daiquiris or other fruit drinks.
John,
Really liked the bourbon notes and the balanced contrast between the fruit and leather and tobacco
Benjamin,
I think this is my favorite rum. I’ve been a whiskey guy for a while now, but I’ve recently gotten into rum. This is a very “whiskey” rum. The Smokey flavor is so nice, yet sweet enough to sip on and not hurt too bad. The 12 year is amazing, and I highly recommend as well. But this one is wonderful, especially for its price.
John,
This one had a good aroma, initial taste and sipping, but the finish was quite dry
Michael,
Love the tobacco and leather elements, deep complex flavors develop from the first sip and reveal themselves over a long finish. Lime notes toward the end. Very different. Looking forward to buying a bottle.
Arthur,
Nice caramel and oak but not outstanding-good sipping rum but nothing super special. However, I’m now curious what the XO afrohead is like...
Paul,
Real good, smooth and very long finish with coffee notes. Balanced sweet and spicy flavor with great banana nose
