Well, this some how got on the shelf so I tried it. Don't make the same mistake I did. It has a few notes but it's hard to tell if they're synthetic or not.
Worth leaving on the shelf instead of losing $40.

A very sweet smell, couldn't figure it out at once wha at was the taste and smell, but after I read it was vanilla (Artificial and over ruling).
I think if they add less flavour and leave the taste get a natural flavour in 12 to 15 years it will become a better rum.
Because a rum drinker wants to smell and taste a natural rum, without adding artificial flavour.

I paid € 32,- for a bottle, I expect more quality for this.

My origin is from the Dominican Republic and this rum not even reaches at the bottom of our cheapest rum Brugal.

Sweetened, new flavour and smell for me. Difficult to assess but I like to taste new things, probably not for all.

Great marketting Great bottle but at the end of the day lousy rum just not my thing. I have an opened mind like Agricoles, Fiji... just can’t get this. Anyone checked the added sugar level? Just a poor flavored spirit, nothing real about it.

Too sweet and aromatic, from my tasting it was one of the most aromatic rum over my tasting. For me it is more I am able to savour.

This spirit (called rum) has very strong vanilla flavour, which feels artificial. I really cant say I enjoyed it . It is sweet, but the feeling is not like rum sipping more than sirup flavoured vodka.

Sirupy strange artificial taste. The bottle looks nice but with a close look, the print is very cheap. Couldn't get it down pure. As it is more expensive I didn't want to throw it away. Mixed with water and apple juice at least drinkable.
UPDATE
I had another go from a tasting set. First sip was the same. Rest I drank from a much wider glass. Definitely improved the taste. Rating changed from 2 to 3.
