A lot of funk for a near blanco, but too much sting to enjoy. Maybe in a cocktail.
I would not sip this as the bite is too much for me and the funk not my cup of rum. A bit sweet with lots of different flavors appearing at different point this is a good mixer. It does grow on you as you sit back with it but it is still a bit funky for me even mixed. I did not blend it in any tiki or traditional drink but believe you will have to be careful in your choices. Would drink it again for a change but not for my bar as a stocking rum.
Interesting stuff with notes of banana, tropical fruit, chocolate, herbs, pepper, and a nice funkiness. Made at Worthy Park.
This Detroit produced rum is made from several Jamaican rums. The label states it is distilled in St. Catherine, Which suggest it is distilled in the Monymusk or Worthy Park distilleries. It is pot stilled and aged in oak for six years before being shipped to Detroit and placed into Moscatel sherry cask. The color is very light. Thge nose is everything you would expect from a Jamaican pot still rum. It has that distinct funkiness of burnt plastic, banana, mango and spice. Its fragrant and refreshing. This is a 100 proof rum, and you can taste that initial alcohol burn that obscure some of the lovely flavors that reach you after the burn has passed. If you are not accustomed to the Jamaican funk you may be turn off a bit at first, but then keep reaching for the glass to renew the experience. A splash of water help to soften the initial burn, but not to much, less you drown out that unique flavor.
Coconut, butterscotch, banana and FUNK! Potent, boisterous, and enjoyable, but only for the first third or so of the bottle. Then the novelty wears off and you're left wondering "what in the name of Tarzan's Treehouse am I supposed to do with all of this..?"
Not nearly as obnoxious as wray and nephew, but both rums share a strong pineapple/citrus aroma on the nose, though wray and nephew smells much more like chemicals than this. It is very funky, and for many it may be too much to have neat or even on the rocks. A tropical cocktail for this would be the best bet; I saw a recipe for a daiquiri using this and then plantation’s stiggins fancy (great rum). I really dont like wray and nephew and so this reminding me of it put me off a bit, but that’s personal. It is worth a try, and if nothing else the artwork on the bottle is attractive enough to add some character to your rum cabinet.
Big Jam funk, big 50% ABV great price!! This is for the true rum lovers out there. It’s a gift at this price.
sad that Two James put their name to this rum. Tried it need and had a hard time getting it down. Used in a tiki drink some of the flavors came alive.
A weak seven. I would say this rum needs to be used as a mixer. Only recommendable as a sipper if you truly love rum. It's very very funky but a little too harsh to sip. Still, the funk is delicious and would spice up any cocktail wonderfully.
It’s sharp with a real minty/menthol hit.
"The initial sip is quite woody – not so much aged but definitely a lot of bitter and savoury notes – touch of stewed tea. The finish is quite short."

I didn't always like Jamaican rums, but as I've come to understand the process I've also come to appreciate the funky taste. I found this on a visit to Detroit. Two James is a local distillery there, who brought in barrels of rum from Jamaica, and bottled it in Detroit (basically using their distillery/bottling license to get around Michigan's outdated alcohol import laws).
I poured it neat, and could smell the rum as soon as I started to pour. It has a strong aroma of over-ripe apricots with a slight tickle of the nose. The first sip has an interesting blend of sweet and tart with just a little burn on the back of the tongue. It leaves behind a fruity aftertaste like dried apricots and raisins.
I added an ice cube, and it brought out even more of the fruitiness.
This is a great sipper, especially if you enjoy the funk. Cheers!
