I don't really drink rum neat, so I don't have much basis for comparison. Regardless, this strikes me as pretty good. Nose has a strong ethanol note that subsides after a couple minutes, at which point overripe banana, green grass, and coconut take over. Palate is sweet vanilla sugar with a tiny bit of coconut and rum funk. Great for the price, and my go to white rum.

Evan Williams Single Barrel Vintage
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed January 18, 2020 (edited January 26, 2020)This might be my favorite bourbon ever. Loads of brown sugar and vanilla with a hint of cherry on the nose. Palate is a little spicy, with round vanilla and toffee flavors. Exceptionally nice, and an absolute bargain at $30. -
Highland Park 12 Year Viking Honour
Single Malt — Islands, Scotland
Reviewed January 4, 2020 (edited January 10, 2020)Dried plums, raisins, and black cherries in thick vanilla syrup on the nose. Palate is caramel and vanilla with a hint of peat. Subtle menthol and smoke on the finish. One of my favorite drams!
