So, i tried the rum last night and all i can say is that i agree with my friend that after the very first sip all i could think was, "This tastes familiar, like something i've had before". I personally would not call it a sipper although it was quite smooth and definitely had a lot of hogo to it. Other than that, there's not much i can say about it. It's a special rum because of what it is in regards to it trying to replicate a historic rum from the past, and i'm so glad i got to try it, but i don't think it was anything special as far as rums go. I would love to have been able to try it in a Mai Tai because i think it would stand out a lot but now that i know what it tastes like, if i ever try another rum that reminds me of it i think i'll buy a bottle so that i can make a Mai Tai out of it and at least know i'm in the ballpark.
