Warning: If you see this text via search result this is a DO NOT BUY alert. This is just a mere 0.25 of a score away from tying for the worst spirit on this site (Club Caribe, another rum), and even beats the E&J VS Brandy fiasco. Quite simply – this is a giant turd of a spirit. If this was a ghost it’d be the kind to possess you to stick Twizzlers in your ear.
Now here’s the part where I had intended to tie this to one of my goto rums (for silver/white) that would be a constant recommendation for readers of this site – which is Don Q. I would then say that despite this I am not a fan of the gold. However like trying to flip an omelet overhand I have quite the egg on my face, and I will make sure to review the clear spirit in the future.
It’s been a while singe I last looked to buy Gosling’s (my days of drinking 151 are long over). However I decided to see what their gold would taste like (although I feel they should have called it their red). Not to spoil but when I tried Gosling’s 151 I was taken aback with how sweet it was as well, and that trend seems to have continued.
