It is funky. The Monkey nailed it between our posts, but I am drinking it on the rocks.
this one is amber, many prefer LeBlon which is white.

Haven't tried the Amber, but it's got to be better otr than the white.

Samaroli Fiji 2001, bout a 1/4 way into the bottle and seems it's changed (not sure I like it now), or my palate is just off tonight.

Pussers (blue label), actually not terrible for 27 bucks.

About to finish my bottle of Plantation 20th Anny off, kind of starting to grow on me…

Me too.

FYI the Plantation 5 year Barbados is actually OK as a sipper, just nowhere near the funk/complexity of the Jamaican.

well you sure are a fast learner.

the back label mentions banana notes on the nose, though the website does not, but they are there for sure.

and you are the only place mentioning the funk, and that is there as well. nice catch.

this is very fine sipping rum and it is going right to my head, the big one. I sense that I will pick out something slightly different in subsequent sessions.

So I see how much you like that funky thang, it's in this, it's in Lost Spirits. So I am no longer afraid to suggest you try an amber/gold Cachaca. price almost doesn't matter. Currently I have a bottle called Seleta, gifted from a fine Brazillian fellow who works for me. Blesses me every day.Too rough for most rum lovers, too funky for neat drinkers, might find a spot in your rotation, maybe not. Let me know if you can't find, but don't worry cuz it is not elite stuff.

Well instead of the Knob Creek, poured 3 fingers of Plantation 2001.
