Banks 7 Golden Blend
"Very pleasant. Forward on the Demerara flavours," is how one member sums it up. This is a multi-origin blend — the nose leans tropical fruit and roasted coffee, but the palate turns spice-driven, woody and a touch bitter, with dried fruit and cocoa. A few tasters find the flavour a little flat after the promising nose. Most people reach for it as a cocktail base.

- Great cocktail base

How does Banks 7 Golden Blend taste?
Summarized by AI from 21 community reviews.
Spicy, dry blend built for cocktails Reviews land around solid but not thrilling: a great nose that goes quieter and drier on the palate. Most agree it shines in cocktails more than neat.

I’m going through my cocktail rums and this is one of my more recent acquisitions. It’s one of the go-to rum for haute cocktail bar Death & Company and I can see why. Great price, surprisingly complex flavor from the mix of 7 nation sources (mostly english style). Highly recommended assuming you can get it for under 30 euros. Not terrible as a sipper but straight up great as a cocktail rum.

27.9.2024 Cubana Bar Brno nose nothing taste nothing, just stings and done
Review by Decky Hicks Doughty
The nose is rather round with notes of tropical fruits and roasted coffee. The palate is much more spice dominant with some lingering fruits but more European then tropical. The finish is medium in length. With woody tannins and dried fruits and a cocoa note. Overall this is a very nice rum and much better than expected. An interesting taste with the Indonesian arrack very much visible.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
quite alright, the nose promises a lot. the taste is a bit boring. the Banks 5 can definitely do more here.
