La Hechicera Extra Anejo

Really good taste for the price. On the drier side, not too complex. Super nice bottle. Makes a great gift

Bottle: One of the best, very interesting
Nose: caramel,sweet,vivid
Body: bourbon aftertaste, spicy/hot
Tail: medium lasting

The odor is really interesting, the taste was quite disappointing.

this is a strong tasing rum, but the heat is not too bad. Sweet, cinnamon

The colour and aroma is very alluring, yet gives very little away appart from a bit of sweetness and wood. The taste is smooth, dry and a bit bitter to start but once given the chance to breath a tinge of sweet emerges, but not much. If finished of with that dry oaky taste. Quite pleasant, but nothing special for me.

Interesting! Starts easy and soft but slowly develops into spiciness with distinctive liqourice.

Oaky. Dry. Easy to drink. Opens up more as it sits.

It's not quite Diplomatico but it's not far off - maybe not quite as smooth, not quite as sweet - but defintely has a character to it with a slight alcohol burn and a long lingering aftertaste of nicely roasted coffee. I have to say, a second bottle of this might see the rating go up a notch but for now it's good at 8/10.

(edit: downgraded to a 7 as my tasting experiences and palette have developed over time).

It certainly doesn't deserve less than 7, especially for the excellent value for money. However, i expected more from this well-advertised product, light hints of citrus on the nose and not very persistent in mouth. Instead the tasting with intense coffee notes is very good.

The nose is light with a hint of age. Chocolate, roasted coffee ,subtle minty and peppery notes for a long finish. 80$ at LCBO is overpriced for this dry Solera rum with too much bite from the younger rums.

Initial burst of coffee and wood flavor, them a slight caramel finish...not as sweet as I like more like a Santa Theresa...would be an 8 in my books if it was a bit sweeter.
