Angenehm, pflaumig, leicht bitter. Entspannter Sipper.

8.0/10

A very light and easy to drink rum. Unlike other rums from Bristol Clasics this one has been coloured with caramel. This rum was destilled by Diamond Destillery in Guyana.

Expert review by The Fat Rum Pirate

"It's okay as a sipper but it is a little short in the finish. I salute John Barrett for allowing us to taste this rum as it is but at £48.99 I would personally want more than a mixer."
