About this bottle

This is a rather sweet rum, with a good entry though also a bit abrupt and not very elegant. It has notes of butterscotch, orange peel, honey, cocoa, and moderate spice towards the end. It's suitable for a Cuba Libre, as the sugar is noticeable. I wouldn't drink it neat, but it's quite useful in mixed drinks.
A reliable choice, slightly superior to Brugal Añejo and comparable; it's also significantly better than Barceló Añejo when mixed with Pepsi Max. It would be my third preference in this price bracket, following Legendario Elixir de Cuba and Matusalem Añejo. Purchased for 14€ in Spain.
The nose has caramel with a nice hint of spice, followed by a sudden, unexpected lack of sweetness on the palate. It feels a bit too intense, almost unrefined on the tongue. This bottle might last a while...
Strong alcohol scent, but much milder on the palate. Honey, firm peach, oak.
Simply love it.
