It’s a bold flavor profile that seems almost purpose built for mixing, not necessarily sipping. On Ice This makes a daquiri that is actually pretty darn great. I think what really does it for me is two aspects in particular. What sets Goslings Rum apart from other rums on the market is its unique blend of aged rums from various Caribbean countries.

Those other aspects are still there, but rearranged. The fruity flavors are near the end, with the brown sugar and vanilla taking a prominent role in the middle of the experience. As a bartender, I have seen my fair share of spirits come and go in popularity. However, one brand that has consistently remained a favorite among customers is Goslings Rum.
