Unidentified wooden aroma, Spanish style but nothing to write home about. No sugar.

I love Canary Islands, but this rum .... only not bad

The nose is alarmingly sweet, toffee, butter and dried fruits, on the palate it is quite sweet and simple toffee-candy-like experience, dried fruits - mainly raisins, sweet finish of dried fruits. And when you think the experience is over, there is actually quite some alcohol afterburn which comes with some 10-15 seconds delay. The added sugar is quite prominent on the nose, in the taste and in the aftertaste also, around 50gpl at least, the taste is ridiculously simple and quite un-rummy. For a price slightly higher that Doorly 8y, sorry, the score cannot be high. The review is based on 50ml sample. Would not buy the whole bottle, even for a cheaper price.

Not so bad taste till you try Arehucas 18. Wood, vanilla.

Only tried a miniature bottle, but forgettable is the word that springs to mind. Tried a few of these Canary rums, this was the least impressive.

It's not a top-shelf rum by any means. The taste is flat, straightforward, simple. No surprising finish, no change of taste. On the other hand, it's quite good. I enjoyed it.

Very nice sweet rum, with caramel, orange on nose, not too strong alcohol and quite long aftertaste.

Rum for beginners on the sweeter side. Vanilla, caramel and nuts on the smell and the same flavours also in mouth. Smooth but not very complex.

Not a bad rum with a lot of molasses

The smell is a little bit shy first. I get thin and bright aromas. Some moldy wood, that's white oak and apricots, also some orange and vanilla. Some champignon, earth and cloves aroma is in the background, it's a multicolum distillation. I hope the dilution is not too high in the taste.
The taste starts with paper (wood), vanilla and apricot. There is just a hint of sweetness.
Then I get cloves, some burned sugar, some bitter notes and champion. This reminds me a little bit of Bacardi.
The finish starts with spice, vanilla, grasy notes, cloves and pepper.
The aromas are not special, the dilution is ok.
I would rate it with 59 points.
