For curious explorers ready for funk and heat, this high-proof blend leans Jamaican: overripe tropical fruit, esters, licorice, chocolate and coffee. Great value mixer that many also sip with caution and a splash of water.

Review by Thomas
Insanely interesting rum, which I had not previously on the screen. Has much of an Agricole and fits perfectly in a TiPunch or Daiquiri. Also a mojito could be very exciting. Extremely fruity and light despite the 55.5% vol. A nice interesting summer rum.
Review by Jindrich Strobl
After a second taste I must increase my rating. An excellent rum.

Halv torr, vanilj och någon typ av apelsin i doften. Smaken är torr och något kemisk i smaken, fruktigheten som finns i doften försvinner i smaken.
Review by Christoph
A blend of slightly chocolaty, spicy rums with a Jamaica fruit bomb. In the taste very good but unfortunately the alcohol is clearly noticeable and somewhat pungent on the nose. With Imberger Bergkäse the raisin comes out very nicely.
Review by Galli33
Thanks to RumRatings for this sample! This one is by far the best of the 4 samples from Ron Colon! A funky mix of different notes. Nose: Blind i classified it as a jamaican. Esters?!? 🤔🥲 There are smells and tastes of different fruits, agricole and a lot of spice. A short woody, coffee finish. Nose: 8.4 Palate: 7.5 Finish:7,9
Review by Han
Explicitly intended as a mix rum - but also very very nice to drink neat.
Review by Christian Rudt
At this great price, good becomes very good! I wrote this at the beginning of my rum journey and bought a bottle. The price was fine and the rum proved its worth mainly as a mixer. I have to devalue it a little on its own, the taste is a little too bitter. -4
Review by Vincent D
On the nose, we are at Hampden. Ripe fruits, esters, pineapple, banana and a certain roundness. The alcohol is very (not to say too) present. The fruits are also there and we really have the impression of a rather young Jamaican, Smith and Cross type. We can still feel in the background a touch of caramel or sugar which brings a certain roundness. The finish is medium long, with the same spicy and fruity notes. In the end, I remain hungry for the lack of information on the label. Rum not unpleasant. The alcohol is not very well integrated and I will be curious to know what is hidden in this blend.Edit: better at the end of the line up
Review by Martin Ekrt
The aroma is a combo of overripe fruit, coffee, liquorice and caramel. Blindly identifying this rum was confusing for me. Not surprising when you mix 2 types of Worthy Park with Cihuatan. For me, a hilarious blend. I would fault them for noticeable immaturity.
Review by Motte
Spannendes, intensives Geschmacksprofil zu einem hervorragenden Preis-Leistungsverhältnis. Eine etwas längere Reifung hätte die Ecken und Kanten wahrscheinlich etwas abgerundet.
Review by benoit burger
Very good value for money. We find the Jamaica with a side caramelized chocolate. In the style of Smith and Cross in more complex. The alcohol is quite present
Review by Thunderbird
A positIve surprise! From nose to finish a pleasant rum, strongly reminiscent of a Jamaican! Only in the finish what licorice-like comes to light.... excellent PLV
