Kirk & Sweeney Reserva 750ml

The vanilla notes really come through nicely, especially in the last sip. It's bold enough to stand up in a cocktail but smooth enough to sip neat. Exactly what I was hoping for in a Dominican-style rum.

Poured it over a single ice cube and the sweetness mellowed perfectly without losing any of that bold character. The finish lingers just long enough to make you want another sip.

The vanilla notes really come through at the finish, making each sip feel richer than expected. I've been using it for sipping neat and it holds up beautifully without any harsh burn. Good value for a 750ml bottle that delivers that bold, sweet Caribbean profile.
