This rum has a beautiful smell about her. She be a little sweet, with vanilla, caramel, and oak, but just below deck, just out of range, there be hints of fruit, spices, and a bit of smoke. As for taste, the subtle sweetness, vanilla, and oak come through as expected, and then there be a surprising hint of biscuit flavor! The real surprise be when all that turns into a flat, tart cherry flavor that be more like a port wine than a rum. Arrrgh! Those two shores should never meet! Bourbon be a beautiful beverage, but if there be ANY hint of bourbon in this rum from the agin' process, then I be no better than a biscuit-eatin' landlubber! Arrrgh!!!

Aged? Hmm...
Surprised to see all those top ratings here... I expect more character and body in a spirit of that age.
Nose: Spicy, sharp, dry fruits
Palate: Sharp, some chili and also some oak, but disappointingly poor in flavour and a quite short aftertaste (there is some afterburn, but only little to no aftertaste).

Did a blind taste and this came in second. Not Plantation XO, but beat Kaniche Perfeccion. Was close with Santa Teresa

Nose of toffee, vanilla, honey. Not the slightest hint of alcohol. In the mouth is very buttery: viennoiserie, croissants. The finish is peppery. I guess this one is dry or almost dry, maybe a few grams. One of my favorites so far, the only problem is the bottle is empty so quickly!

Great smell, I could live the rest of my life in the bottle. Vanilla, maple, honey, oak. So smooth that my mouth doesn’t want to swallow it too quickly.

This is a beautiful rum from Panama.
Nice color. Heavy quality attractive label and bottle.
Smooth nose of warm caramel light molasses a bit of allspice.
The palette is very oily. Caramel, Sweet molasses cookie, and a lingering thick aftertaste of toffee and candy orange.
Little smell of vanilia, perfect sweetness. It is a perfect rum for a summer Girls night out

Per the reviews on this site, I picked up a bottle for about 45 bucks. The initial feeling is smooth followed by a full tongue burn that nicely lingers after you are done with your sip. Nice mellow and balanced flavors. You can taste the bourbon notes. The first sip is really wonderful. A great bottle for those who appreciate aged rum.
