Bounty Premium Gold
Here's the surprise: it comes from a distillery members clearly respect, yet the rum itself leaves most of them shrugging. Vanilla, butterscotch and honey lead, with a soft spice and a thin, light body at 40%. It's inoffensive and easy, but reviewers keep landing on the same word: uninteresting. One taster found it "lost and a nothingness" mixed into cola. Better in a ti punch than sipped alone.

How does Bounty Premium Gold taste?
Aggregated from 13 community reviews.
Light, vanilla-soft mixer that plays it too safe Capable distillery, forgettable bottle — that's the recurring verdict. Nobody hates it; almost nobody reaches for it twice. Thin and a little flat, best pointed at cocktails.

Review by Stefan Persson
Tasted this rum when I visited Saint Lucia Distillers (SLD) recently. The nose is fruity and spicy with scents of butter, butterscotch, raisins, vanilla, dried and candied fruit. At the palate it’s soft, balanced, fruity and spicy with flavors of raisins, honey and vanilla. The finish is medium long.
Review by Jack M
Very capable distillery but a pretty poor rum. The best thing I can say is that it isn’t spiced. It is thin and alcoholic. The flavours seem a little artificial but may well not be. There is honey, vanilla and spice and a flowery note. Also lost and a nothingness in Pepsi max.
Review by Rum Runner Labs - Will
Go on girl give us nothing. Processed vanilla cake (think Twinkie) on the nose and a vacuous, uninteresting sweetness on the palate. Maybe a bit of banana, but to compare it to worthy park would be a hate crime. Inoffensive and uninteresting.
