Sweet and warm, with good essences of smoked wood. It's a rum for "every day" drinking. Not to much complex, but good structure and pleasant to taste with friends.

Mon nouveau préféré dans la game abordable. Très smooth, fruité et épicé. Possède quand même une bonne épaisseur et reste longtemps en bouche pour un rhum de ce prix. Certainement à essayer pour les gens du Québec (36$ à la SAQ et disponible presque partout).
Really good product for the range of price. Fruity smooth and a touch of spice. The taste remain in mouth just like a good pricey sipper. Definitly worth trying.
very nice sweet rum easy on the pallet easy on the nose goes down very well straight up
Amazing taste, color and aromas. One staple in my bar for a sipping rum.

Nice rum with charater, not for everyday. Perfect for a chilly evenindg
Really versatile, with the price can mix or sip. I generally sip though

If you like Diplomatico (Exlusiva), this rum is better
8
/10
out of 10
I used to love the Diplomatico Exclusiva rum, but as you delve deeper... it is after some time just sweet and otherwise a little bland. This rum is similar, but apart from the smoothness and sweetness it gives such a lot of various tones and flavors... mainly almonds (slighty bitter) and the barrel-taste (woodish tones).
Try and compare ;)
EDIT: Moved to 8/10 once I tried El Dorado 15 (9/10) and letting an open 10/10 once I taste 21-year old ;)
