This English Harbour series (Sherry, Port, Madeira) are probably the best cheap rums you can get. Very solid rums for very good price. I always recommend it to beginners that want something sugarless.

Nose wood, spicy, a little Madeira; great on the tongue: lots of wood, more wood, subtle sweetness, nicely complex towards the back, a little spicy, but very exciting

Good rum. Very good value for money. Slightly alcoholic on the palate but still quite balanced. Lots of caramel and tropical fruits. I recommend tasting although my favorite remains the sherry cask finish.

7.8/10

Quite an alcoholic nose despite the low ABV, the Madeira is present and reinforces this alcoholic side. The woodiness is quite marked, with tannins and bitterness. The palate is much fruitier, but more on the dried fruit side. The alcohol is well integrated. The finish is of medium length, with woody bitters and vanilla. Apart from the nose, this is a fine rum, well-made and pleasant.

The nose doesn't really pick me up yet: Alcoholic, a little wood. Fortunately, the taste then picks up a little: fruit, roasted aromas, somewhat more complex. Finish: dry with vanilla and medium length. Really solid. PLV good.
