Rum & Cane French Overseas XO

I’m not a fan of cane juice rums, but this one isn’t too bad. Medium viscosity with subtle sweetness and nice finish. Better than their Asia Pacific expression.

No floral notes very woody with a strong after taste. Not my favorite,

A bit lighter in color but a surprising amount of flavor. Pretty smooth but not very complex. Quite drinkable.

Very oaky and intense right out of the bottle. It packs an alcohol kick, and is rather bitter even after mellowing. It mellows a trifle after breathing a few minutes, and a lot if you give it about 20 minutes. It is almost a different drink. The angry bitter finish begins to morph into complex flavors after breathing. I had to compare it to a sip of bourbon to be sure, but this is just oaky and not bourbonish. In spite of (or perhaps because of) its bitterness, I could see this one as a pick-me-up in a pina colada, but not a mai tai or anything cola based. I think the sweet and sour of the pina colada components would make a nice balance. A bit of water would also change the sipping experience. Right after opening it is about a 3, but after letting it sit and breathe, I bump it to an 8.

A woody dos maderas like a wine taste but watered down and bitter, bit rough

Nose: Strong sugarcane, licorice. Palate: Carmel, slightly astringent. I enjoyed the Asia Pacific expression of this brand more.

This rum was a lot better than the other Rum & Cane offerings. Nice on the nose and palette. Fruity , earthy and flavoursome.. nice cane juice combination. Would recommend.

Dry agricole rum. Taste of cane sugar, cinnamon, caramel, raisins, licorice and fruits.

I expected more from this bottle, not my taste to be honest

Velmi zajímavá kombinace agricolu a melasoveho rumu. Příjemné překvapení. V chuti i vůní hrozinky a třtina. Klidně 6.5.
