Smooth with good burn, may not live up to the price but a good rum.

This was not a memorable rum, especially for the price.

Unfortunately I only sampled a small 30ml of this but I am intrigued. Lashings of oak and malt maybe burnt oak, if I'm being honest a bit to woody for my usual taste but this had a great long finish of mild vanilla and burnt Orange, chocolate. A bottle will be put on my wishlist

Bottle is beautiful. Interesting rum. A little on the strong side. Great rum for those who love sipping a cognac flavor rum. I have it mostly for show and special occasions.
However, it you like a strong rum this is a great option for the price. Similar to other higher priced rums.
A must in a collection.
Do not use as a mixer. Too strong and pricy.

You taste it's a aged rum but i just don't taste like it. Dry, harsh, weird bourbon/whiskey tastes. It just doesn't taste like a good rum. It's complex, lots of different tastes, but not one i like. For a top rum it's at the bottem. Nice bottle though. It was on my wantlist, but aftet tasting i removed it. Sorry

Presented in a very beautiful bottle, the Barcelo Imperial 30y is once again linear and well balanced with some tobacco and chocolate flavor. The aftertase is longer than other barcelo's . Nice packaging, nice sipper' nice product but ... maybe not enough complex as you can expect for a 30 years old rum.
Doesn't taste as good as I cost, but could be good to have at home for guest's;-)

NR: More intensive than Barcelo Onyx, matured and tasty
8
/10
out of 10
It's the logical continuation of the barcelo onyx, more intensive.
Still mild, but with 43% of course heavier. The taste reminds me of brandy because of grape seeds.
The younger Barcelo Imperial is balanced but a little bit watery compared with the 30th.
Because of the higher abv and more maturation it has more intensive aromas.
Nose starts with grape seeds, dry orange peels and some grains. There is wood and black tea in the background. Intensive nose for 43%.
The taste starts like a cognack with black tea, then grape seeds with some bitter notes and orange peels. In the middle I get some sweetness and again grape seeds.
Some wood is also there and at the end the same: orange peels, wood and tannins.
This is a good and intensive taste, there are some other rums that contains this flavors. Orange peels are always a good sign of aged tropical rums. The grape seeds are dominant.
Would rate it with 87 points. It's great and intensive for just 43%
Nose: black tea, grape seeds, orange peels, wood, dry fruits, some pepper
