Botran Reserva Blanca

I bought a bottle because my local shop has run out of Plantation 3 Stars. This is similar stuff, a good quality, quite complex white rum with an interesting tropical mix on the nose and a pronounced waft of coconut. I enjoy it neat, but it comes into its own in a daiquiri.

Tasted on 1/26/22 at Laka Lono in daiquiri form, aka JuanDax.
This is not a sweet rum, but it is flavorful.
I'd keep this on hand to brighten tiki drinks.
Edit: May 14, 2023 at Laka Lono in a Rum Rickey. Delicious! This is a rum that complements everything, I think.

Excellent mixer. I like the Diplomatico reserve blanco (no longer made), but Botran has a little less strong alcohol burn and a little more sweetness. (for me a little too sweet). Not very present in the nose, as we expect from a white rum, but with nice flavors of some vanilla, wood and fruit.

A great easy white rum. The key word here is subtle. Subtle smokey aroma from the aging barrels I assume. Taste begins sweet, but ends quick with a bitter nutmeg/cacao aftertaste and flash of coconut in the middle. Would be great for mixing, but not quite for sipping.

Starting to dig white sippers and this is top 5 white rum sippers, smooth and velvety, finishes just a touch sweet

Este ron es de sabor suave, recomiendo tomar solo para disfrutar su sabor sin interferencias

A good one to have on the shelf. Mixes well with everything, and makes a wonderful daiquiri. When I don't want to mix the more expensive Cana Brava, I reach for this one.

I find this to be a wonderful rum for mixing. It's fairly mild, and blends well with other flavors when used in a background role, but unlike most basic white rums the flavor that it does have is good enough to make spirit-forward drinks work. Can be consumed straight, but it's not terribly interesting.

Un rhum jeune mais très agréable. Il est de couleur claire avec des reflets jaune, assez liquide et un nez floral peu prononcé.
En bouche une attaque chaude et douce avec un final assez court mais floral presque un peu pâtissier. J'aime ce rhum sec mais doit parfaitement convenir pour les cocktails

If you’re looking for an inexpensive silver, this is a very good choice. Smooth and no burn when drinking neat. Used it in Mojitos and is a great compliment to the mint and sugar - no complaints.
