Yes. In the evaluation from the video, all seven bottles have a community score of at least 7.5, including Smith & Cross, Veritas and Diplomático Reserva Exclusiva. You’ll rarely find long-aged single casks at this price, but you get a lot of fruit and power for your money. And a 7 is already a good score on RumX.
