Cockspur 5 Star Fine rum

Cockspur 5 Star Fine

Barbados | Gold | 37.5% ABV

Cockspur 5 Star is a golden combination of column and pot-stilled rums matured in American white oak barrels before blending. Coral-filtered water is used from a nearby aquifer to dilute the rum to bottle strength.

The company Cockspur was founded in 1884 by Danish seaman Valdemar Hanschell. Barbados was chosen as a location beccause at the time it was one of the Caribbean's largest shipping ports.

Many a rough evening in Barbados drinking this when the Mt Gay wasn’t around. I could only mix it typically with a little cool water and lime in the local rum shacks. Like I said what the locals drink.

Sweet, easy drinking and perhaps bland would be the best word or maybe inoffensive.

Not good enough to drink on its own, but ok for cocktails, if it can be found at a reasonable price.

Probably a 4 based off tasting notes alone, however factor in the price ($13.50 USD in my locale) and you’ve got yourself a winner!
What else is there in that price range? Bacardi? Cruzan? Seriously a killer deal.

Good in a bind Barbados Rum, makes a decent rum and coke, not a patch on Doorly's but readily available around the UK, my latest bottle came from the local corner shop.

Zu einem vernünftigen Preis erhält man hier einen ehrlichen, ungesüßten Rum.
Gut zum Mixen geeignet, durchaus auch pur.
Empfehlung für den schmalen Taler.

Need to retaste. Not tasted for years and remembering it was good and better than Bacardi!!

Ideal for sweet rum based drinks as it does bring any sharp notes. This unaged rum is surprisingly smooth, with a mild and uncomplicated taste, with little to no aftertaste. I can imagine something like this is the base for liqueurs such as Kakadu. Or if you want to get drunk cheap - no sugar added, no headache.
