Color me surprised, but this is actually a great rum. That nice industrial oil backdrop serves to guide you through some spices, fruits, and a bit of mint shockingly which isn’t something I get too often in rum. The oak is well balanced and integrates well. Very impressive, but still way too expensive in my opinion
