While he is over the top in his dislike for it. He is absolutely correct that they are the same rum with different labels. Over the years, this product has been through several different blends. But, at any given time, it is bottled, then, labels are applied "Rum" or "Brandy" depending on the market and laws. I have been to the distillery 4 times and have seen the operation. BTW, notice that it is no longer promoted on their website.
