Wray and Nephew The best-selling high proof rum in the world. 90% of rum sales in Jamaica are of Wray and Nephew. Overproof is a very potent spirit indeed!
The nose is fruity. Notes of molasses and spice. The palate is fruity and a little spirity. There are notes of banana and Demerara as well as spice and a little oak. The finish is long and spiced.
I imagine this is incredibly polarizing depending on one's opinion on 'funky' tasting rums. This is truly THE rum of jamaica, and works excellent in cocktails, especially when pairing with sour tropical and citrus fruits. My preferred drink, however, is simply mixing with a can of ting and a squeeze of lime. The flavours pair excellently, and it is the most popular way to drink this rum in jamaica.
A staple for many Caribbean drinkers, and this is the standard go-to for Jamaicans... Hot stuff but wonderful x
I've only had the once before and it tasted like paint stripper, which was nicer than this bottle. Not a fan of vegetal tasting rums
Similar to mezcal, not much like rum. I'm not a huge rum fan so that's ok, but it tastes like mediocre mezcal. A bit overrated, I should think
mix with energy drink like boost or red bull. don't drink on an empty stomach or you will wake up in a police station - trust me, I've made that mistake. premium rocket fuel, the best of the best. beware of the person you may become. jekyll and hyde type drink. the best.
