Good rum, enjoyable. One I always keep on hand in the cabinet. Probably my favorite.
Picked this one up not knowing much about it and really like it. Have been drinking it neat and as a choice for a rum old fashioned.

This is my go to rum. A single ice cube and this is sweet, smooth, and truly the most enjoyable rum I’ve experienced so far.

Na nose i v chuti znatelný bourbon. Velký elegán mezi sladšími rumy.

A nice rum, someone else here described it good, where sweet rum drinkers start mellowing out a bit. It is still quite a sweet rum, with lots of caramel, vanilla, brown sugar, raisins and some light chocolate, but also has some oak to it. Good flavours and well balanced.

If I had to pick one favorite rum to drink for all times this would be it. Super smooth and nice flavors.

This is definitely tasty and I appreciate the bourbon-like caramel nose, but not much happens on the finish other than a sustained sweetness with little evidence this has spent 21 years in a barrel. It's solid, but I expected more.

Only giving this a 7. It's decent, but for 21 years old? I guess I expected a lot more, especially given the hype. There are a lot of rums less than this one, even half this price, that I like a lot better. It opens up with time and has a decent flavor overall, right level of sweetness (for me), interesting - but lacked overall complexity. Nice thing, not overly woody. For the price, I won't be buying it again. I'm bummed out about it! I don't know that I'd ever splurge on the 30-year one now.

You hear people talking about this rum like it’s the best. You try it and is good, really good. However it doesn’t quite live up to the hype. Very good sipping rum.

This is a good rum but, it is too Bourbon-y for me with big oaky wood notes...
There is unfortunately, a huge trend in finishing a lot of different kinds of liquor in Bourbon barrels... I do not understand this because, I think it ruins a lot of liquor...

Sehr netter Rum vom Meister Fernandez.
Schönes goldenes Bernstein im Glas.
In der Nase trocken Früchte, Karamell, etwas herbe Kräuter und ein wenig Holz.
Im Gaumen auf einem rauchigen Holzbrett geschnittene reife tropische Früchte mit Vanillepudding und Karamell-Sauce.
Im Abgang schön geschmeidig und langanhaltend, eine dezente Süsse wie bei einer zartbitter Schokolade.
Ein durchaus süffiger Rum auch für Einsteiger.
Ich finde in dieser Preisklasse den Don Pancho 18yo bedeutend besser. Hat einen voluminöseren Körper
und ist deutlich komplexer.
Very nice rum from the master Fernandez.
Beautiful golden amber in the glass.
In the nose dry fruit, caramel, some tart herbs and a little wood.
In the palate, on a smoky wooden board cut ripe tropical fruits with vanilla pudding and caramel sauce.
In the finish, beautifully supple and long-lasting, a subtle sweetness like a dark chocolate.
A very tasty rum also for beginners.
I find the Don Pancho 18yo much better in this price class. Has a more voluminous body and is much more complex.
