I found this Rum in a spirits article and decided to try it. Hands down this is the best Rum for the money. I am not a Rum drinker, never have been, never liked it. I have done tons of Rum tastings in different places but hundreds of Rum samples later I never developed a taste for Rum. After trying this Rum, it works well both neat and in cocktails. I have since bought seven bottles of this stuff. Excellent unknown brand but one to watch definitely.

Product description
VOTED BEST SPICED RUM IN THE WORLD IN 2023 – by the prestigious “Beverage Testing Institute”, who also bestowed upon Bayou® Spiced Rum the exceptional score of 90 points. Other remarkable 2023 accolades include a Gold Medal awarded by the unbiased spirits review “The Fifty Best”, which further confirms the unsurpassed quality of Bayou® Spiced Rum. AN AUTHENTIC AMERICAN RUM - Bayou® Spiced Rum is proudly crafted in Louisiana, using local sugarcane molasses, grown in the rich alluvial soils of the Mississippi River Delta, and produced by the oldest operating American sugar mill since 1829. This Original American Spirit is inspired by the sophistication of New Orleans and grounded in its Cajun roots. CELEBRATION OF LOUISIANA’S CAJUN COUNTRY - this flavorful rum is infused with a complex, delicate blend of spices inspired by Louisianan Creole baking, including 3 styles of natural vanilla, cinnamon, and sweet figs. Then it rests for up to 30 days with the Creole spices imparting an intense flavor and deep amber color. Bayou® Spiced Rum celebrates the spirit and culture of Louisiana's Cajun country, known for living life to its fullest. HANDCRAFTED AND POT-DISTILLED - after fermentation, the rum is distilled in one of the finest copper pot still systems in the world. EXOTIC, SWEET, AND COMPLEX - on the palate it's a delight to the senses, showcasing a mild yet rich blend of maple, banana, allspice, clove, vanilla, and pepper notes. The finish is complex, with lingering notes of Creole baking spices. A RUM OF MANY USES - this multiple gold medal winning rum can be enjoyed neat or in a long drink with Cola. It can also be your main ingredient for tasteful cocktails like the Spiced Palmer or the Rider in the Storm (Bayou's version of the Dark & Stormy). It is also exceptional for baking cakes and puddings.
