Rating: 11/23 N: Yep, I smell that coconut. There's also some ethanol. That's really about it. P: The coconut flavor is quite present. It tastes fairly artificial to me, but I often think that even real coconut milk tastes kind of artificial because of its weird bitter flavor, so I could be totally wrong about this. The light rum certainly exacerbates that aspect of this though. I certainly taste the ethanol and I think that combined with the light fruitiness is what's weirding me out here. Overall, I don't want to drink it, but it strikes me as fine as a mixer. At least it's smooth and although it has some artificial flavors to it, they don't punch me in the face. F: That bitter coconut flavor, possibly with a light metallic note, continues long into the finish. Unfortunately, the better parts of the profile drop out. For a tropical drink that uses rum and could benefit from a little bit of coconut flavor, this would probably work just fine. Really though, some overproof rum and real coconut milk would be a much better choice. That said, for a quick and easy cocktail, works pretty well. Even without being mixed, it tastes OK. I wouldn't want to drink it neat, but despite being bland it isn't really offensive. I'm thinking an 8 to 11 overall for this, with it being an 8 to 10 neat (and more likely a 9 to 10). As a mixer, I think it earns that bump up to an 11.
