Incredible nose. Overripe banana and aromatic floral notes. Explosive taste and palate

I picked up this bottle because I was curious what a strong funky rum tasted like. Honestly I was a little afraid before I tasted it because of some online reviews I’ve read that mentioned “gasoline” etc. In the first couple sips I wasn’t sure, but ever since then it’s the only rum I can think about. I blew through my first bottle in a week. Amazing nose and big round smooth taste. It’s my favorite in a mai tai split 50-50 with an aged blend. I have since blind tasted it with Smith & Cross and it was no contest. This won hands down due to how smooth it is and its comparitive lack of harshness.
Review by FL_RumRunner
I’ve never been much a fan of the Jamaican Funkyness of rum, and this to me is the epitome of Jamaican funkiness. I think the funkiness just overpowers any other flavors and drowns out any of the more subtle notes. With that being said, it’s a smooth rum which is nice. If you are into the Jamaican funk, this is for you.
Review by Thomas
Absolutely brilliant mix rum. Great Jamaica notes, a little ester and really fun in Mai Tai. Can also be enjoyed neat if necessary, but really great for 28$.
Review by Anton Krioukov
A delicious if somewhat young tasting room. I love the Moscatel finish. Makes a fantastic mixed drink.
Review by Ian Gilman
Moved to MI and picked this up at the local grocery store to compare with Smith & Cross. A lovely, spicy, fruity selection from WP that certainly fits the same bill as S&C for cocktails and is also great neat; at 50%, it’s a little softer on the palate neat.
Review by DomM
Nice one. Strong WP funk on the nose. Creamy and fruity on the palate.
Review by Kayla Roy
Not for everyone, but certainly for me. I enjoy this rum neat and in a daiquiri. It plays wonderfully with citrus fruits. A little warm and funky smelling, but certainly not in a bad way.
Review by Nicholas Hardy
Nose: Industrial glue Deeply Nutty Lime Straw Vanilla Pallet: Peppery 🥭 mango Vanilla Industrial glue nuttiness Very faint pear Mouth is slightly oily but ends quick. Remains very dry and hot. Remind me of Smith N Cross but I can’t sip that like I can this.
Review by Boshuda
Didn’t know this is a Two James product from my home town of Detroit, Michigan! Jamaican pot distilled but barreled in the states. It’s mega funky. Great for adding effect to tropical drinks!
Review by waterglass11
Far, far less Ester than the nose would suggest. For the price point, it's a fantastic Tiki rum - the Doorlys of Worthy Park
Review by Mike H.
Outstanding nose but sadly this rum fails to deliver in the mouth. Flat and thin. Thank you for the sample Adrian.
Review by RumCzar
This is almost as good as S&C and is just a great bargain Jamaican rum. This is also an always bottle. I will rebuy.

"Ester and chemical notes on the nose, a million different things on the palate: spicy, briney, overripe fruit, pungent juiciness. Tasted alongside Probitas."Read full review →
