Took my time with Old Monk Amber Mellow & Matured Rum neat after dinner. There was a brief soft caramel, then the spice tasted artificial. The balance felt off from start to finish.

Opened this rum alongside dark chocolate. The warming finish came through clearly, and molasses note kept the sip interesting. This one earned a place on my repeat list.

Even over ice, the finish turned rough. Then the sweetness lingered too long. Not one I'd return to.
