Sweet, smooth, and a hint of wood. Smooth finish that doesn’t linger. Don Q has this one dialed in!
I really enjoyed this bottle.. It was a very nice experience... The smell is so smooth and delicate. Strong ones of vanilla and white chocolate. You can recognize that this is a grown up rum taste. It has a full body.. rich tones of toffee and vanilla a bit of smoke and just a bit of wood.. perfect balance. I truly recommend this one.
Dry and oak. A bit too complex and bitter vs double cast.
leave it in the glass 10-15 minutes because it s a little bit harsh on the nose ...
but than you have a good dry rum, a little bit of oak and vanilla,
for me the predominant note is croissant,
also in the medium finish i have croissant in the mouth ...
The bottle looks royal. After you drink this empty, you can easily put this on your shelf to display.
The drink it self is like warm sweet butter. Fills you mouth with a full body and little burning after you swallow this. With coke, it's great too, but definitely a waste if you ask me.
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.
A sweet almost perfumed like aroma is followed by some oak, a little spice and a lovely waft of light vanilla.
"The initial sip gives a sweet yet slightly peppery entry. Running alongside these flavours is a subtly creamy vanilla note which runs right through the rum. The finish is long and peppery."

Many years ago, a co-worker who was from Puerto Rico told me that Don Q had the best rums. Since he was a refined gentleman and I was looking for yet another reason to bid Bacardi farewell, I bought one of their basic rums from the grocery store. Horrible stuff! I swore off Don Q at that time, but should have bought their standard Anejo instead, which is supposedly just as good as their Gran Anejo.
Then I got to reading reviews on this one here at Rum Ratings and added it to my wish list. Lo and behold, I found one of two remaining dusty bottles on the bottom shelf for $51 each. This should have told me something about it not being worth the money. A very good liquor store can drop subtle hints like this, as well as put some really good cheap ones on the top shelf.
Discarding the silly box on the outside, I had one rough time opening the tightest cork that I had ever encountered. I thought that something was wrong with it. Wiggling it back and forth finally allowed me to open it. It is a plastic cork, but these things prevent spoilage better than real corks made for wine to breathe. This first sign was a good one.
The nose was almost nothing. The taste was like a fine bourbon with no added sweetness or artificial flavors. It was as smooth as can be, but also not memorable at all. An ice cube did nothing to open up the flavors. The pretty bottle could easily impress guests, but that is not my style. However, I will savor this most expensive bottle of rum that I own just like I did for that only bottle of Pappy Van Winkle 15 year old bourbon many years ago. That bourbon lasted me for a record six months figuring that I could never find another one again. How right I was! But I won't be looking for another bottle of this over priced rum.
Update: Eventually, half of this bottle was gone and I was sick of looking at it to remind me that it inspired my personal limit of $50 per bottle. I also had a half bottle of the much cheaper Don Q Anejo. Hmmm! You guessed it! I poured this half bottle into the half bottle of Don Q Anejo and that combination made for a wonderful sipping rum that I still have. Since I could not wait to get that empty pretty bottle of Don Q Gran Anejo out of my sight, I gave it to my neighbor. However, Don Q and Cruzan now rate as my two best brands of budget rums from the northeastern Caribbean to avoid sipping on the expensive ones in my collection.
