Make sure you have a clean palate (your mouth). Common palate cleaners are bread or unsalted crackers.
The first thing to look for when tasting a new rum is what it looks like. Take note of its color, is it clear or cloudy, light, golden, or dark - this can help prepare your brain for what is about to come.
Commonly referred to as "nosing," this is where you sniff the rum to soak in those delicious aromas. Short quick sniffs are best to capture different aromas. You have about 7 seconds before your nose gives up and stops noticing things, so try and identify things quickly!
The first sip is always a bit of a shock to the tongue, so take a small sip to get the light burn out of the way so you can focus on the flavors.
Take a second, slower sip, and let the rum float around in your mouth and the vapors float into your nose to identify more aromas. Here you want to look for sweetness, bitterness, spiciness, and acidity. Make a note of what you observe.
Next, take another sip and pay attention to the consistency of the rum, is it smooth, light, or thick? Does the flavor intensify or stay the same? Compare this to what you noticed previously in "The View."
Swallow the rum and pay attention to the after taste. How quickly does it fade? Do more flavors present themselves? Do other flavors disappear?
