Light straw color. Aromas and flavors of ethanol, fruit candy, sugar free peach rings, and vanilla marzipan with a velvety, lively, dryish medium body and a stimulating, medium-length finish manifesting notes of artificial peach, tropical gummi candies, vanilla cream marzipan, and berry infused beeswax. Pleasing fruit aromas abound with a cohesive ribbon of vanilla from start to finish.

About
Gold Rum
Golden Rums, also known as Amber Rums, are generally medium-bodied and a little sweeter to taste. Most have spent several years aging in oak casks, which give them smooth, mellow palates. They are a little darker than light Rum and a little lighter than Black Rum.
