I was very surprised at how good it was for not being an aged Rum. It is sweet but very good.

Very dark in color. Heavy with vanilla notes. Bit pricey and hard to find on the mainland.

Pretty much sweetness all the way. That's it. For the price they ask, could be better and more refined.

This is a fine rum, with a nice nose and good flavor but I'm afraid priced out of its league. It lacks the complexities of a sipping rum, but will provide the right flavors to make your mixed drinks stand out...if that's what you're looking to achieve.

One of my favorite dark blends. Awesome with cola + citrus. Although it would be a great mixer, its too expensive and foo hard to find to be used as such.

Another hard to find rum unless on the west coast. I fell in love with this one sipping it down in the Keys. It has a very unique taste. I would imagine you could make some great mixed drinks with it such as mai tai's. I personally enjoy sipping it and getting the great taste of sugar cane from Hawaii.

I'd throw this in cocktails in a pinch. I'm Kama'aina so I'm all for supporting local industry. But, this was pretty unremarkable, low-budget rum in my book. Especially given my forays into caribbean rums from Guyana in particular.

That said, they make a mean-ass rum cake that you absolutely must NOT miss. They even do mail order!
