Another excellent product from Seale and Foursquare. Hard to beat the $15 price tag. It's easy to find a good rum at 3-4 times that price, but it's a thrill to know one of my favorites is also so affordable.Thanks Total Wine and More . . .

Great with a splash of Diet Coke. And at $17, an above average value.
I drink this on ice. Been goin through the entire Rum shelf at Total Wine and keep coming back to this. It's a hardy rum with character but smooth. Good in mixed drink, stands up to the sweetness. At $15 what do ya have to lose? The goods. Cheers!!
Bottle from Total Wine. Pours dark amber. Butterscotch aroma. Flavor seems very barreled. A bit sour in the woodiness. Pleasant caramel notes with a quick finish. Nice. Retasted on 11-26-23 and like even better. Has an up front barley grain flavor not unlike a single malt.

Great spice rum for mixing or sipping. This is a blend of 10YO rums that runs dark and should replace kraken black anywhere it is found. Superb rum, especially for a blend - even more so considering price point.

I love the R.L Seale line of rums, and Old Brigand is no exception. Yes it is an inexpensive rum, affording you to unfairly insinuate that this has to taste like paint thinner or should be used to remove nail polish. Neither is further from the truth as Seale, I donโt think, would do this to Rum clientele.
The smell is dominated by orange and cinnamon candies which albeit, has a pleasing smell. In the glass you get sweetness from the cinnamon and orange but also the heat provided by the said cinnamon, pepper and other warm spices, oak as well as the proverbial alcohol heat/ astringent at the back end This is in a good way however, as I donโt want you to feel like you are sucking on a Carolina Ghost pepper kind of extreme heat. It counterbalances the sweet and heat rather nicely.
This rum is the most popular rum in Barbados, not because of complexity or age statement but because it is only $15-$20 a bottle. Donโt let the small price tag fool you, this is an enjoyable rum to mix or even to enjoy neat.
Nothing fancy regarding the bottle design or label housing the dark amber rum inside however, sometimes you get lucky and find a genie in the bottle! This is one of those times, for me atleast...letโs Parlay...

Not too expensive, but you wouldn't know it by the taste. Sweet n numbing like Kava.

Barbados and Martinique seem to be the two locations for rums I tend to like. This one is no exception. This rum is blended by R.L. Seale & Co. so it has that quality backing.
The aroma in my snifter is nice although a bit subtle. Has a little alcohol astringency but not objectionable. It is a nice aroma. The color is a rich amber and swirling it in the glass reveals nice legs clinging to the sides of my snifter.
The flavor is nice on the outset. A little sweetness indicating it may be sugared a bit but not objectionably so (according to testing it is not sugared at all...I stand corrected...the sweetness detected is all natural). I detect some vanilla and toffee before a nice warmth envelopes the throat. It does have an oak undertone which makes me think this was aged in barrels of some sort although I cannot find anything definitive at this time. The best I can determine from various source is that this is a blend of rums from the R.L. Seale company.
This is a rum that kind of grows on you the more you sip it. It is a rather good rum best suited as a mixer in my opinion. The finish is nice and long leaving a toffee sweetness on the palate. Not a harsh burn but a lingering strong warming sensation. A good journeyman's rum. This would make a nice addition to a rum cabinet and the under $20 price that I got makes it a nice bargain.
A very familiar and very pleasant experience.

This is a rum that could knock the local competition down a few notches. Foursquare needs to let this secret out the bag! The locals don't know about it! It's my favorite!
