Don Q Gran Anejo

Jedná se o blend rumů stařených 9 - 12 let v sudech z amer. bílého dubu a rumů zrajících systémem solera až 50 let v sudech po sherry.
Výsledný blend by mělo tvořit až 7 různých rumů.

Aroma: Nakouřený karamel, ořechy, kokos. Pěkná vůně.
Chuť: Vanilka, dřevíčko, sušené ovoce. Příjemně pichlavá.
Dozvuk: Vanilka přecházející do hořkých tónů kávy, špetka sušeného ovoce. Vysychá.
Sladkost: 0/3
Vzorek #23 z RumFest Praha 2021
Jemný rum s příjemným kávovo-kouřovým profilem. Jako u většiny rumů Don Q by vyšší % už tak dobré rumy posunuly o třídu výš. Nadprůměr.

Very smooth, lots of vanilla flavours in a fantastic bottle..
Slightly too expensive to my mind, but the fancy bottle won't come cheap.

Tried this along side other Don Q offerings. Found that their standard Añejo and the 2005 Single Barrel had a much better flavor. A bit on the pricey side for what you get.

This is a very smooth sipping rum. I find the taste to be a bit flat in the finish.

I gave it 6 stars because it does mix okay. However, at this price it should not need to be mixed to be good. Compared to similarly priced rums it has a bitter and harsh flavor. It was not so harsh that it could not be sipped, like many cheaper rums, but it was not an enjoyable sip either.

Never judge a book by it's cover. That saying also goes the same for things that look beautiful. For sure this is one of the best LOOKING rums on the shelf at the store. The hollow stopper even has the old "flip and fill" thing that 1800 used to have. However, I was disappointed with what was inside. I was much more impressed by Cruzan Single Barrel and that bottle is SUPER LAME. This isn't a terrible rum, but at this level and from the presentation I

Also für den Preis hätte ich wirklich was besseres erwartet.
Ich fand der roch ein bisschen nach Kleber. Pur hat er mir nicht wirklich geschmeckt. Mit Cola war der in Ordnung wobei er dafür echt zu teuer ist. Ich kann den nicht wirklich empfehlen.

This isn't a bad rum but it's far from great. The bottle may be it's most distinctive feature. Notice there isn't a single review focusing on taste and aroma? That's because this disappointing rum has no distinctive flavor. I can't identify a characteristic. It's reasonably smooth but yet has an after burn that you'll notice at first. This isn't bad. It's just not great. I can think of 10 rums I'd rather drink but at least 10 that are far worse.

Sort of a rum without qualities - it is drinkable, but cannot tell you much of its flavor besides the sweet wood.

Not really a sipper, slightly sweet, a bit spicy, but not much body or finish other than warm alcohol and slight astringency.
