Rum is a very smooth and well balanced.

Det finns mycket doft och smak men lite väl mycket ek, spetsig och spritig, lite vatten gör susen

The presentation is gorgeous - who's not swayed by that bottle?! - and the color is divine. The nose is thick and candy with caramel, and you lose none of that in the sip & swallow. But, for me, this rum's sweetness overpowers the obvious effort in aging and blending. I find the flavors that make an XO rum worth the expense are nearly drowned here. Admittedly, I found sipping it over a single ice cube improved the experience. But at this price point, that's not what I was expecting. Still, in the bottle, this might be the best-looking rum I've ever seen.
The look and feel is outstanding.
Taste: Nice one with a bit of spicey after taste.
Its quite floral and a little sickly smelling.
"There is a lot of sweet toffee and caramel on the nose. Hint of butterscotch. ."

I found this rum on a recent trip to Jacksonville and decided to mark one off my wish list.
Now I wish I hadn't bothered.
Apparently my opinion will be going against the grain here but this rum would be great if they hadn't sugared it so much.
Am I drinking rum or molasses with alcohol added?
This could almost be pancake syrup.
The syrupy sweetness is so overwhelming that it hides some elements and flavor profiles that would have made for a great rum.
But someone decided to ruin what could've been a great rum.
Forshame!
Paid way too much for this. Sad. My fault.
I forced myself to try to take extra sips and finally found some vanilla and toffee undertones to it along with some oak tannin. Even a hint of banana.
Beyond that, there's not much.
I read so many praises for this rum. Makes me wonder if I got a counterfeit because what I got sure ain't what others describe. Don't get me wrong...there are some sugared rums that I actually like but this one goes overboard. I cannot recommend it as a sipping rum unless you're into drinking syrup. I could see this being effectively used in drinks with an antithesis of sweetness such as coffee drinks or drinks using more bitters than the average. Any other suggestions? I cannot see this used in fruit-based drinks. The sugariness would be completely off the charts. And not in a good way.
My recommendation? Not worth the $65-70 price. Many better rums for half that.
