Oak wood taste, also a bit like smoked or tobacco flavour, followed with orange and fruity tones, smooooth delicious, good one to me. No burns, great.

Highly underrated. Maybe one of the wet runs for the price point. Especially $50 and under bottles. While the 15 year is excellent, save the $20 and get the 12.

This is my go to whenever I am settling in for a relaxing evening. The nose on this one is very smooth with a nice finish on the back of the palate. Savor every taste!

At least my country, this 12year is actually cheap and can deliver a lot for the price.
Fruity, but not so overly sweet as some others.

right off the bat, you get a very oaky aroma with fruitiness and spice. itโ€™s very mellow and went down real smooth for me. you can easily sip on the rocks , but also mixes greatly with cola, you can still taste the flavor heavily in it!

Nice to have this with some ice and let it rest a while. I prefer sweeter liquors, but i think this is better than Zacapa 23

I still don't like rum by itself, but the aftertaste of this one almost changed my mind. Great tiki mixer.
