Rivers Royal Grenadian Rum Review
While this expression of Grenadian Rum is normally consumed at 75 percent ABV in its home country, the spirit's export version still packs a punch at 69 percent ABV. The fiery heat of alcohol is unavoidable at this proof, but neither the aroma or taste of ethanol are present in this rum's complex character. Instead, expected supercharged doses of corn husk, earth, dried grass, and umami. It likely won't appeal to all drinkers, but rum enthusiasts will savor this sublime sipping experience.
