I don't think this will replace Scotch or Bourbon as my go-to drink, but it does make for a nice change of pace and will go down nicely in the warmer weather this summer.  |
Sounds about right. These rums have an initial heat that dissipates quickly. Definitely a longer finish than most spirits. I like it over ice which all but removes the heat but retains it's flavor.
