The only reason why this rum did not get 10/10 for me is only because I have not tried the 15 year rum yet :) This is a great choice in rum. As someone mentioned about sugar, yes this rum does have a certain sweetness to it. However that is what I look for out of rums personally. This one is great for sipping either neat or on the rocks. And it also mixes very well with the simple juice or coke/rum setups or the more advanced cocktails. This rum is also good in cooking or as a slight topper in desserts. A shot of this on top of a triple fudge Brownie along with a scoop of vanilla ice cream is amazing.
When you have a shot of this it will leave you craving for more. My favorite rum to date. And the price range for this is typically in the high $30s.
