This Box
This is like my little monthly treat to myself, I get to try new rums and good rums 🙂
Inside you have your 3 rums to try, plus an information leaflet to tell you about each rum and its tasting notes which is always a cool little read.
This Months Rums:
Rebellion Spiced Rum
ABV : 37.5%
Style : Spiced
I decided to start with this one, as I do like a spiced rum.
I poured this out and took a smell ohhhhhh I got some vanilla notes and something else I couldn’t put my finger on.
I took a sip and immediately transported to heaven this was amazing. It was sweet smooth and very moreish.
Part of me wishes I left this to last as it was very nice so much so I added this to my Amazon Wishlist 🙂
Angostura (5yr) Rum
ABV : 40%
Style : Golden, 5yrs
I have not had Angostura for a very long time, so I was looking forward to this.
For the notes I got hints of caramel, and now time to taste.
Ohh this was a lovely rum and it brought back the memory of the last time I tried this. This is a nice sipping rum, one to sit back relax and enjoy, it had zero burn for me but had a love full bodied taste.
Plantation O.F.T.D Rum
ABV : 69%
Style : Overproof
This was a new one for me, and just looking at its ABV I knew this could either be strong with a burn, or strong but smooth so now to taste..
I took a sip and got lovely tastes of caramel and vanilla then BANG wow a strong after kick but it didnt last long and then a nice aftertaste
Wow this one really packs a punch, but a good punch.
Overall :
This was an interesting box this month, one for me was a massive favourite (the spiced rum) and one nearly blew my head off…well I am exaggerating just a bit.
Overall all were very nice, but that spiced rum was the clear winner for me in this months box, I am looking forward to seeing what is in the next one 🙂
If you like rum and fancy getting some each month delivered to your doorstep then check them out.
