Old Monk Supreme 7 Years Old Blended
People buying this want a cheap, sweet mixer, not a sipping rum — and that's exactly where it works. Heavy vanilla (the kind several tasters call clearly artificial), molasses and raisin, with a surprising smoky-grilled note on the finish. Neat, most find it cloying and a bit sharp; poured into cola with a squeeze of lime, it turns into a genuinely good, spicy-orange rum and coke.
The community says- Great in cola

How does Old Monk Supreme 7 Years Old Blended taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Sweet, artificial-tasting cola mixer Most agree: pretty rough neat — syrupy, artificial vanilla, hot finish — but a "good rum to mix with coke" where its spice and sweetness actually shine. A mixer, not a sipper.

Review by Vincent D
A rum whose bottle was brought to me by chance from India by my father, and which I discovered belatedly. This is a very sweet, vanilla molasses rum, whose main interest, in my opinion, lies in the smoky, toasty note that appears on the finish. I have fond memories of it. I'd probably enjoy it less today.
Review by Chrischi78
Brought by a friend in a plastic bottle (!) from India. I was expecting something nasty, but it wasn't that bad. Less sweet than expected. You can even find a few different flavors, but the colleague remains boring, without depth and has an artificial aftertaste. Will give it a try as a mixer.

Perfect for blending. Light cherry. Pure rather not
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
I use this rum for rum and cola with a squeeze of lime. It can also be used in a rum grogg if you have a cold.
Review by Jakob Deiner
Orange, molasses, spicy, light sweetness. Tasted with cola, as the tip came from various sources, including here. Very fruity rum cola with distinct notes of rather fresh orange, actually unusual and good. Drinks: - Neat: 3.5/5 - Rum Cola: 4/5
Review by HenryL
Souvenir from India, authentic in the plastic bottle. On the nose full blast vanilla, it can't be natural. Reminds a bit of a less bad version of Bumbu or Don Papa. In the mouth less sweet than expected but still artificial vanilla, paired with a bit of sharp spice.
Review by Rüdiger Schneider
It's quite okay, but I'd rather make a Rum Cola with it.
Review by Anonymous
The review refers to the mix with cola. The rum is excellent there. It doesn't taste good at all on its own.

Looooooooooool

Good value for money
Review by Blockzeitwilli
Dark chocolate and fruit on the nose. Strong taste, slightly orangey and very sweet. A clear recommendation for cocktails in which rum should dominate a little more.

Price-performance: Top
Review by Decky Hicks Doughty
The nose is syrupy. I'm still to taste this but I know it's going to be sweet. There's some dried fruits and maple. The palate is not as fruity as I expected but the sweetness is there. Lots of molasses notes, quite synthetic, a strange fortifies wine note, not very pleasant. The finish has a surprising smokiness and some vanilla. It does linger for longer than expected too. Honestly, I'd heard some good things but this just isn't for me. It tastes too unnatural and syrupy. Mixed the rest of my sample with coke.
Review by Robert Houba
Very aromatic, raisins, molasses, maple syrup?
Review by Peter Bosel
Rather artificial tasting, but works well in some cocktails.
Review by Kieron Wood
Tasted 20-12-2016 Harsh flavours and severe alcohol aftertaste. Lacks any depth of flavour and for the price there is much better alternatives available. This is one of the worst 7 year old rums i have ever tasted, so sweet and cloyying on the glass that shows clear that stuff has been added
Review by L ange
For me personally, it was a bad purchase, it was not my taste at all and it's still standing in the cupboard today 😅 smells like vanilla, tastes a lot like molasses, or a bit like sugar syrup that you spread on your bread.
Review by Dr. Frost
Solid rum neat, but also suitable for mixing with anything that contains cream or milk. My tip: White Russian, but swap the vodka for Old Monk.
Review by Christian B.
Quite sharp in the finish, more suitable for mixing
Review by Miňo
Suitable for drinking with cola, not neat!!
