Most of the reviews I've read on here explain this rum as overly strong on the alcohol taste. However, that was not my experience at all.

The nose on this rum is quite nice; a subtle hint of vanilla and sugar with an overwhelming scent of orange. As per the reviews, I was going to let it sit in the glass for a little while before sipping, but the smell was too good to wait.

Upon my first sip I was hit immediately with a pungent orange flavor, but to be honest it tasted quite artificial, almost like orange flavored cough syrup. That was really what stuck with me after a few sips, which made it hard to pick out other flavors. After about half my glass, the rum was too sweet for me to continue drinking straight. So, I splashed a bit of Coke in my glass and it was immediately much better on the pallet. Obviously, mixing any spirit with any other substance reduces its original flavor, but due to the pungent orange flavor of this rum, it balanced out perfectly.

This is a very good mixing rum, just don't mix in too much coke, it should be a "Rum with coke" not the other way around.

Nice and sweet Guyanan Rum. A $50 bottle which can hold its own against some $70 bottles.

Очень красивая бутылка, толстой стекло, медальон, оформление супер.
Не спиртуозен, если дать подышать очень легко пьётся. В аромате море цитрусовых и фруктов. Очень лёгкий. Браво!

Gehört wohl schon fast eher in die Kategorie flavoured Rum.
Schmekt irgendwie künstlich.

Strong flavors in every sense. Plenty of orange and citrus. Best sipped chilled. They did anvery good job at letting each flavor stand out while none, other than orange take control. Keep in mind that this is a cork top, there will be cork particles in your drinks. Great branding and awesome looking bottle. Owned by the Patron brand.

This rhum seems very forced. The aroma is artificial orange, the taste is very orange/chemical. There is some sweetness, but mostly orange followed by a light burn.

Hated this rum on first taste. Boozy and lacking character. After I let it rest, the booziness settled and the flavor came out. Orange and vanilla forward. Still not my favorite, but drinkable on ice.

I enjoy this rum with ginger ale and lots of ice. There is better out there but also a lot worse!

Don’t love it. Don’t hate it. Like the orange fruit. No burn. Fine.
