Rest & Be Thankful XO Carribean Rum
Most tasters land in the same comfortable spot: a Jamaica/Guyana blend that's fruit-forward up front, all banana and pineapple, then turns toward coffee, milk chocolate and toasted caramel. A few note it's lightly sugared, which rounds it off rather than making it cloying. Fuller than you'd expect at 40%, with a finish a couple of people called short.
- Banana and pineapple
- Coffee-chocolate finish
- Easy everyday sipper

How does Rest & Be Thankful XO Carribean Rum taste?
Aggregated from 21 community reviews.
Fruity, lightly sweet everyday English-style blend Well-liked as an easy everyday sipper that introduces English-style blends. Banana, pineapple and chocolate-coffee notes win people over; the catch is a thin finish and light sweetening some will notice.

Review by Eric Frechin
Blend Jamaïcain/Guyana qui fonctionne bien, avec 2 provenance qui se complètent. Le Jamaïcain apporte des fruits tropicaux et le Guyana le caramel chocolaté. Le nez dominé par le fruit (banane ananas) . Entrée de bouche sucrée caramel choco et retour rapide des fruits. Ce blend est doux, sans être plat. Tarif intéressant.
Review by Timo Groeger
Schöner, angenehmer Blend aus Jamaika und Guyana, welcher ziemlich interessant ist. Zuerst ist er sehr fruchtig, vor allem Banane und Ananas sind erkennbar, ist die Fruchtigkeit im Gaumen verflogen, kommt die Röstigkeit, vor allem Kaffee und Schokolade.
Review by TheJackDrop
Dégustation rapide au salon de la maison de whisky . C’est une première version plutôt réussie, je trouve, aucun ester Mais une grosse gourmandise, au milieu des fruits tropicaux, Notamment de la banane et de l’ananas.
Review by Rodolphe
Un rhum dans la catégorie everyday sipper ou alors "découverte des rhums style anglais". C'est bien fait, très buvable mais avec ce qu'il faut de personnalité. En gros très bon rapport qualité prix pour s'initier a ce type de rhum ou le partager avec des gens qui ne connaissent pas, ou même se faire plaisir a petit prix sur un rhum a siroter.
Review by Michal Jurka
Advent Calendar for my brother 2025 Coffee with touch of esters and banana. This is actually pretty good and quite full for 40% abv.
Review by Carlitooo
Ein schöner Blend für das Geld, der Rum ist sehr sicher leicht gesüßt, aber das rundet ihn auch schön ab ohne zu Süß zu werden. Jamaica und Guyana bringen trotz Verdünnung und Zucker einen guten Geschmack mit. Für Einsteiger richtig gut

Der Geruch ist stark fruchtig mit Noten von Karamell und Schokolade. Im Geschmack alkoholisch mit Röstigen Noten mit Karamell. Der Abgang ist quasi nicht vorhanden.
