Flavored Rum — Saint Kitts

In the Glass: Clear and viscous.
On the Nose: Sweet coconut, very piña colada-like. If you were to bake coconut chocolate chip cookies, it would smell like this in your kitchen. There isn't a terrible amount of depth here, but there really doesn't need to be. There is nothing artificial to the aroma, which is refreshing for this genre.
Taste: Very sweet coconut on the arrival (think coconut confection)with some of those chocolate chip notes throughout. The finish carries a lot of heat with a slight turn towards bitter at the very end.
I wouldn't recommend this as a sipping run, unless you wanted a dessert substitute; but as a mixer for coconut-based cocktails? Absolutely. The whole experience rings very "natural" as opposed to manufactured.
