Marnt sugar, roasted nuts and marzipan lead here, with vanilla and banana underneath and a smoky, almost cigar-ash edge on the finish that divides people. One taster nailed it as a peanut-butter old-fashioned in rum form. A couple wish it had more fruit; the ashy, coffee-like close is the thing you'll either enjoy or tire of quickly.
The community says- Marzipan and nuts
- Vanilla-caramel sweetness
- Keep in mind: Ashy, cigar finish

How does Gold of Mauritius Gold of Mauritius Dark Rum 8 Solera taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Roasted, smoky dessert-style dark rum Most find it "a pleasant rum with spicy notes and a roasted finish," but several say the smoky, ashy end overpowers the fruit and gets tiring. One reviewer felt the aged character was faked.

Review by Jakob
A bit of an acquired taste - has something of a cocktail. Could be a fat-washed peanut butter rum old fashioned, at least I can't shake that association. Aromatically lots of vanilla sugar, caramel, coffee liqueur, marzipan, banana and a quite expressive peanut note. Drinkable, but it quickly gets a bit too much for me.
Review by Christoph
Tastes to me a bit too much like 'ash' or cigar at the end. The fruits are missing here.
Review by Gregor
Nice harmonious and above all complex rum. With smoke, cherry, banana and marzipan. I like it
Review by Stjepan Lovasic
A pleasant rum with spicy notes and a roasted finish.
Review by maxwell1664
Finally a bit too "coffee" for me.

Read full review ›If you haven't got aged rum don't try and create it by nefarious methods its really quite insulting to rum drinkers. The fact that is made using rums from smaller distilleries such as La Bourdinise should gain it kudos but when its been "masked" in such a way any goodwill...
