A very approachable Barbados blend at 40%, with light coconut, vanilla, honey and a touch of citrus/stone fruit. RumX members find it easy but quite simple, better suited to casual sipping or long drinks than deep tasting sessions.

The look inside the bottle
How does Rum Company Old Barbados BB taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Light, easy, but quite simple A light, newcomer‑friendly Barbados-style rum with pleasant coconut, vanilla and honey notes, but many RumX members find it too thin, sweet-leaning and straightforward for serious sipping.
Those new to rum who want a soft, sweet-leaning Barbados blend for casual sipping or mixing with cola or ginger ale without much alcohol bite.
Enthusiasts seeking complexity, structure or higher ABV, and drinkers who dislike light, coconut‑vanilla driven profiles that can feel a bit diluted.

Review by Timo Groeger
Thought this would be the best of the three, but it was the worst :) Nose is very fruity but also very sweet, coconut is especially present here. On the palate it remains (too) sweet, coconut, vanilla and a bit of orange are present.
Review by Gregor
Nice aromas but way too flat. Very heavily diluted distillate. Shame. The original distillate has light notes of peach and banana rounded off with caramel and vanilla. Would love to try it at a higher proof.
Review by René Müller
Very light. Mostly floral scent. Honey sweetness in the taste and a bit of citrus. Easy drinking rum but also a bit monotonous.
Review by zabo
For my taste too sweet and I find it quite watery.
Review by Fabian Kohler
For my taste way too sweet and quite one-dimensional.
