They make some pretty wonderful rums. The Kweyol Spiced was one I hadn’t had before. It was a big hit!

I really enjoyed that Banks VXO 7 year, too bad we don’t get that in the states! I was surprised how much I enjoyed the Appleton White, haven’t tasted it in years. Perhaps with the updated label, a smoother rum came to be?
