Sugar: 28 GPL. A sweet rum from the Dominican. The caramel and oak is up front in taste and aroma, but the underlying taste of cinnamon powers right through that.
This is a fairly smooth rum without any complex taste factor, which I find is like a lot of other rums from the Dominican. It's a sipper if you want it to be, but I would classify this as a high end mixer.

Well, this rum is diffrent, it's mature and alcoholic, woody aged flavor. Diffrent vision about aged rum.

Vizcaya VXOP 21 er en let og lys rom med god duft og smag dog lige til den søde side.

It's really not that good honestly. It's simple beyond words. Its 85% oaky 10% vanilla and some sugar and trace other things. The bottle is nice to have in the cabinet but really it's nothing special. Honestly buy 2 bottles of brugal anejo. They taste identical except brugal has a slight less oak flavour. Drinking this straight is alright. Slight burn but nothing bad. Honestly Brugal is made in Dominican Republic and so is this. It would be no surprise to me if this was made in the same place using the same formula as brugal just in a different cask. It might be slightly less smooth than brugal anejo. But for 20$ less I would take brugal. I also could just add sugar to my brugal and it would be this at a large cost savings. I give it 8/10 because it's drinkable straight and I like the oak flavor but it's still nothing flashy. It's just good, not great, not memorable. Just good. Much like that movie you saw a month ago that was "good" but not that memorable, what was it's name again?

Too much added sugar makes this rum hard to take seriously. It lacks depth. It's entry level stuff.

I had to travel to Quebec to get this one; Ontario's selection on premium rum is very limited.
This rum is amazing; it is perfectly balanced on most levels.
It smells of vanilla and butterscotch.
It tastes like vanilla and banana.
The entry is smooth and sweet and the finish seems almost dry and a tiny bit of spice hangs at the back of my tongue.
I guess I'll be making another trip to Quebec at some point

Picked up a bottle in Maryland as the ratings were good. Thought it was an excellent supper, very smooth with harshness. I would buy another bottle.

A balanced tasty contender that almost gets there, but the addition of sweeteners derails it.
