My understanding of this 12 year rum is not that the oldest rum is 12 years rather this is some type of average (according to a Dictador rep) from rums between 8 and 14 years old. After all blending is said and done equals 12 years of age.

I just cracked open a 12 year old bottle after finding it in a local release with a great price and never actually seeing it in store before. This bottle came in a coaster box meaning just that... a half inch cardboard coaster. The bottle has a natural cork.

My initial thoughts here... Nosing nothing unexpected very subdued alcohol, coffee, cinnamon buns, vanilla, butterscotch, some fruit.

The tasting..

Very forward in the entire palate and back of the throat. After the initial blast which I consider to be a slight burn with slight spice near the end the flavors develop and is completely smooth by its exit. The initial entry is quite a surprise to me as is the burn for a 40% spirit. The main flavors I get are somewhat complex in their change from butterscotch, vanilla, dark chocolate, ending with a sweet caramel finish with forward distinct coffee flavor?

I find if I leave this one in the mouth too long before a swallow that the burn on the tongue is quite obvious and even so harsh that it destroys the flavors of the finish. Best swallow this one fast! Leaving it out to breath a good while helps to mellow this attribute.

The sweetness and coffee on the finish can be tasted for quite some time.

Filtered through 100% Arabica and that is exactly what you feel in its taste. Very similar taste to his 100 months old relative.

Dieser Rum hat uns positiv überrascht. Gekauft haben wir ihn ohne irgendwelche Kenntnisse in welche Richtung sein Geschmack geht.
Kaffee Kaffee Geruch und Geschmack angenehm zu trinken mir hat er gut geschmeckt und ich werde ihn sicher wieder kaufen

Pas le meilleur dans les 12 ans d'âge, goût très sucré.

Good noose of liquor. Good taste of chocolate. Are very similar to Companero Panama, but else a different kind of rum at a very good Price.

Smagt igen i 2020:
Duft af tobak, karamel og træ. En smule ristet. Nøddesmag. Valnødder? Peber. Smager faktisk rigtig godt. Og den er nu købt til samlingen. (21. december 2020 i 1423).

Well it has body, very tastfull rum: I taste coffee, leather, sigars, oak, vanilla.
It is sweet, but not too much, little burn.
Just not for me, I'll pass.

Very sweet rum, with notes of chocolate, nuts, caramel and cinnamon. Cheap. A good rum for mixers too...

It has mild oak and brown sugar notes on the nose, smooth on the mouth but a little lacking in flavors.

Dlouho jsem se na tento rum těšil. Konečně nastal čas zakoupit láhev. Vůně slabé kávovo oříškové aroma. V chuti výborný vlašský ořech. Silný suchší ale mile bez pachuti v dozvuku. Příjemná změna po sladkých rumech a koňakovém přeskoku. 7,5b zaokrouhleno na 8b za oříšek.
