Yet another sample from Sooner. Ive been on the fence with 4square so this should decide it. Man the nose on this is nice. Rich and balanced with tropical fruits, light molassass and smoky hogo. You can just smell the quality here with great depth and clarity. Can the palate live up to the glorious nose....almost. Delicious delivery of island sweets and melted caramel with a delicate barrel char. Near perfect amount of hogo petrols and an overall purity to the taste. Just lacking the buttery thickness of some of my fav dosed rums(I realize Im the minority). Great finish with flavors drifting away slowly with elegance ending at sweet pipe tobacco. Top shelf rum and I WILL buy a bottle finally. Easy recommendation for rum sippers(dont mix it)......90/100
