Thanks to sooner for the sample. I had never heard of this Rum until @JonWilkinson praised the distillery in several reviews. Being born and raised in MA this makes me proud as they have really done a tremendous job here. The quality is excellent and the flavors pure. Rich oaky vanilla with a melted brown sugar sweetness perfectly balanced. Wonderful clean finish without any bad notes or bitterness. Lacking in hogo but not all rum needs it. I wish I could get my hands on a bottle. I am planning on being back in New England this summer so I may just have to find one to bring home with me.....87/100
