Sangsom Phraya Elements

Cola drinkers get the most out of this one. It's soft, sweet and easy — vanilla, caramel and chocolate up front, with honey and a bit of dried fruit behind. The 40% is so mild that one member pours 30-50% more into the mix than usual. Sipped neat it's pleasant but simple, and a few tasters find the sweetness sits on top of everything.

The smell is dominated by vanilla, honey and caramel, which also remain in the mouth. However, drier as the smell suggests. Smoke or roasted aromas or bitter almond, which remains particularly in the long finish.

Interesting nutty smell and taste. I also tasted vanilla and toffee without the rum being sweet. The woody aroma rounds off the taste for me. Pleasant and drinkable on its own.

A starter rum for an evening tasting. On the nose: vanilla, wood, caramel. On the palate, a little of the same as the nose, with sugar and vanilla. Medium finish. Not a fan

Aged rum 

Avg Rating 8.0/10 over 16,000 Rums

Aged rum is where the spirit earns its complexity. In a tropical warehouse a barrel loses 6 to 10 percent of its contents to evaporation every year, which is why an 8-year Caribbean rum can taste deeper than a 20-year Scotch. This page gathers every rum on RumX that has spent real time in wood, with community ratings to separate the genuinely mature from the merely dark.

` between two key/value pairs terminates the expression and Hugo fails the whole build with `unexpected "{" in operand`. Put notes here. `headerDeliveryCountry` feeds the aria-label of the destination picker under the express row (commerce/express-destination.js). The strip's visible text is rendered by Hugo itself in rx/price_block.html — nothing else needs seeding. */ -}}
