Sunset Very Strong Rum 70cl

Known this all my life. Mom is from the Island. I remember when my uncle used to bring it back before the ban on aircraft. Gave my teenage mates a tipple, and watched the drama unfold. Great times. Take it easy with this one. Very nice pure white rum.

I first had this back visiting my father on Union Island, in the Grenadines. Yes the rum is powerful and yes people, and myself have been know to drink it neat with a chaser but really this is for making a punch concoction. This is not to be played with and for most people, it a curiosity to try something so mad! It's not as harsh as you would expect but it will take you breath away. You can't take it on the plane anymore, hence the expense. I once bought back 9 bottles for friends and myself😂

In the reviews for this product there are many people who clearly have a drinking problem or are encouraging potentially deadly levels of drinking. This is not something that should be drunk neat and realistically probably shouldn't be put in a single mixed drink either. That said if you plan to make your own liqueurs then this is excellent. So far I have made Limoncello and apricot liqueur with it and both have been excellent. Remember to add sugar and water though.

Great rum, used for making tinctures! Best one iv tried yet.
100% recommended

Treat this rum with respect it really is very strong but the taste when mixed with your favourite mixer is sublime. The fact that you don't need to use as much makes it worth the price.

This rum is highly recommended. You must treat it with respect of course due to its strength, but it is smooth & delicious. My favourite way of drinking it is with fresh lime and soda, but it also works wonderfully in fruit punches and with mixers such as Ginger Ale. It's my favourite white overproof rum!

In one word WOW! I have to take this one easy as I drink it neat. Very tasty and a real warm glow as it hits the stomach. Fantastic.

We have had 4 bottles in 14 months. I don't think I've ever had the same spirit as frequently! Which means that this is special.. Especially since I'm a bourbon drinker!
Exceptional rum. Cannot recommend enough.

ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!! My preferred spirit is whisky, however, this rum is my new favourite. Yes, it burns like you've swallowed fire, but when mixed with a little water, it is so smooth and all the flavours come out. It's very moreish! The overwhelming flavour for me is chocolate, strangely. The effects are: a warm glow; spacey, rather than numbing intoxication; happiness and unawareness that you're getting intoxicated. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

Simply the best rum I've ever had and I've had a go on a fair few over the years. There are some who drink it neat but while I do neck a tiny bit neat to get the flavour explosion from time to time I think my sinuses would be toasted if I did it on a regular basis.

Can't recommend it highly enough
