Real McCoy Single Blended 12-Year

Found this on sale for about $40. The Probitas white was good, and Foursquare is highly rated. It was pretty good, though I prefer some other rums at this price. Nice nose. Tastes alright. Was expecting a bit more.

Another high quality rum from Barbados. The Real McCoy 12yr has a tobacco forward profile which is great to pour your friends who think rums are all overly sweet.

I was on the fence about trying this one after reading the reviews, but finally decided to give it a try. If I had to rate it right out of the bottle it would be lower. I inadvertently let this one sit in the glass for 30 minutes while I was distracted. When I got around to trying it I was pleasantly surprised. Not to overbearing or sweet and very smooth. A nice sipper. Tried another glass without the wait and it was good but not quite like the first. Give it a try but let it sit a while.

I really enjoyed this rum. It felt super real to me. Somehow knowing that no sugar was added to this to make it sweet and that every drop in the bottle is at least 12 years old just adds to the experience.

Ein schöner Rum ohne Zusätze.
Fruchtige Noten im Anklang gut eingebautes rauchiges Holz und eine dezente Süsse.
Dazu die tolle Geschichte vom Captain Bill McCoy.

While the nose is nice, the mouth is awesome! Damn smooth caramel, butterscotch, coconut, banana, leather, tobacco, chocolate, and citrus. A nice noticeable bourbon finish to top it off too.

Sugar test-0. Well duh, it's from Foursquare!

It's not sweet. I like sweet but I still like this one. It tastes natural.

Puissance et gourmandise au rdv de cet excellent Foursquare ! Mon rhum de tous les jours !

Very nice sipper. What is it about Barbados! Over ice, let it sit and chill.
