Sweet vanilla-coconut dessert sipper A newcomer-friendly Jamaican spiced spirit with big vanilla, caramel and coconut. RumX members treat it as a liquid dessert or crowd-pleaser after dinner, neat, on ice or in sweet cocktails.
Sweet-toothed drinkers and cocktail fans who love strong vanilla, coconut and caramel notes and want an easy, low-ABV dessert sipper in a showy bottle.
Fans of dry, traditional Jamaican funk or anyone avoiding sugar and artificial-tasting vanilla; critics find it cloying and more like vanilla liqueur than rum.

Review by Schnapsschuesse
Vanilla pudding on the nose, spices very nicely integrated into a thick load of fruit. Not artificial, no weird notes, one of the roundest noses I've encountered on a spiced rum so far. The pudding stays on the palate too, but it turns summery spicy. The sweetness is kept in check, with just a slight sharpness towards the finish. Delicious!
Review by Neji
Delicious spiced rum, is very tasty to enjoy neat. Can also be used as a mix in various combinations. Tasty quality spiced rum that is not extremely sweet. but certainly gives a velvety mouthfeel. The bottle also looks very nice. The total look of Canerock ROCKS
Review by Stefan Persson
Overall a way too sweet rum in my opinion. Had a glass of this spiced rum after a better dinner at Såstaholms Castle just north of Stockholm. The Canerock Jamaica Spiced is pot still rum from Clarendon and Long Pond bottled by Alexandre Gabriel and Maison Ferrand. It’s infused with vanilla, coconut and ginger. Thereafter it’s aged for 6 months in PX-Sherry barrels and finally it gets a dosage of 25gpl of sugar.
Review by Sam 🥃
Canerock is a Jamaican spiced rum from Maison Ferrand, infused with natural spices. The vanilla beans are from Madagascar, the coconut from the Caribbean and the ginger is local. It's a spiced rum with unbeatable value for money. One of the best I've ever tasted, with its notes of vanilla, coconut, chocolate and spices, what more could you ask for? It's not too sweet either, which makes it really gourmand and pastry-like. With a really nice bottle and a very pretty wooden turtle illustration, I really like it, and it's unanimously appreciated by my friends and family.

Riecht nach dr. Pepper & cherry cola 🤣 Für einen spiced rum nicht ganz so süß wie andere spiced rum Kandidaten... Jamaica kommt mit viel Frucht zur Geltung aber insgesamt schmeckt es halt echt fast nur nach Cherry Coke 😃
Review by Fayaman971
Un rhum qui se boit sans artifice. Au nez , une odeur de noix de coco très agréable . En bouche , on ressent la vanille , la coco et même du caramel avec des épices qui rend ce rhum délicieux . À goûter absolument !
Review by SaibotZtar
Not my thing at all... even as a mixer Somehow very artificial.
Review by J-p Schoum
Madagascar vanilla very present which slightly attenuates the coconut! A real liquid dessert
Review by LukaŽiga
6:On the nose, the rum gently settles on a bed of sweet spices. It's coated with cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla, like a smooth coconut punch. One could even speak of a creamy rum, so mellow are the aromas. With a little swirling of the liquid in the glass, the spices are released in a cloud of fragrance reminiscent of incense or patchouli. 5,8:The palate is very pastry-like, with sweet spices such as vanilla, nutmeg and cinnamon, as well as a buttery, brioche-like sensation. The roundness is balanced, and the coconut milk and almond are quite tasty, as in a profile of American oak taken to the extreme. 5:The sweetness remains on the finish, roundedness vains... Small print:We still have to point out, that this is spiced rum....
Review by Ben Macfarlane
Lovely sweet smell of caramel and long lasting taste of vanilla.
Review by Tafia Guildive
Taste is like sweetened Vodka with vanilla and some other additives. Whoever is giving this crap a good rating has no idea of what makes a good spirit or is getting paid by the industry. This is truly awful.
Review by Anthony
J’adore ce rhum ! Peut-être bien un de mes préférés équilibre parfait entre la coco, la vanille et son côté boisé/épicé qui complexifie le tous j’adooore et je valide à 100% autant l’été on the rock ou l’hiver, il es génial !
Review by R Wehner
Die Flasche ist noch das Beste. Nase direkt Marzipan, bissel Vanille; Zunge ähnlich, Marzipan, Vanille, kaum feststellbar Jamaika, muss man mögen/wollen, nicht meins
Review by robinho92
Je lui mets un 8, car dans son style, c’est très bon. Les arômes sont très bons, effectivement c’est tres sucré. Mais dans son registre c’est tres bon
