Nose: Sweet and heavily featuring molasses and brown sugar. Some trace fruity notes (banana mainly) and a little caramel. Palate: Sweet and carrying on with the sugary notes from the nose. Finish: Short and sweet. A pretty simplistic medium-dark rum that is not really up to sipping neat - very much a mixer, but with such a sweet profile that in combination with cola or fruit juice it borders on cloying, almost sickly. This is very cheap in Cuba, and is one of the cheapest imported rums you can buy in Australia. It's OK over lots of ice with soda, a dash of bitters and a slice of lemon. Pretty much the rum equivalent of Johnnie Walker Red Label - acceptable when correctly used as a mixer. "Adequate" : 72/100 (2 stars)
