Reviewers find this rum to be pleasant with good flavors of coconut, banana, and spice. However, some feel that the alcohol is not well integrated and the rum is somewhat flat and unspectacular. While it shares similarities with West Indies Barbados rums, it could benefit from better balance. At a price of 55 EUR, some consider it a bit expensive for a 4-year-old rum.
