Review by zabo
I would say it's a solid blender. Quite okay with cola for in between. Pure it was a bit too sweet for me. I think it contains dosage. Overall, it also seems a little thin and artificial.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
This is a rum made in a 5 column still where it was triple destilled and then aged in American oak casks. This one is the flagship and also oldest rum in this range. A bit like a rum from Cuba not as heavy as many other South American rums. Does well as a sipper but also in a mixer.
Review by Peder Frits Nielsen
My first “real” rum-experience (Barcardi white NOT counted in). The Cruzan opened my eyes for the fantastic world of rums - so very different from what I was used to - and I remembered it as being quite good..
Review by Solidfunk
Caramel and whiskey barrel. The latter is pretty strong--very oaky. Not super complex. Clear golden pour. Mostly barky end. Quite dry for a rum. Glass at The Mill in St. Croix. Ok, but a little plain.

Expert review by The Fat Rum Pirate
Read full review →As it may have offered a different experience to a number of rums already available. As it stands this is a good if not slightly undwhelming sipping rum. It does a lot of things right but sadly it lacks that little extra spark which make a truly great rum. Good...
