Abuelo XV Napoleon Cognac Cask Finish rum

Abuelo XV Napoleon Cognac Cask Finish

Panama | Aged | 40% ABV

oak and dark chocolate.

Great color, great smell. Really smooth. Fantastic for the nose. Full of sweetness. Actually very sweet. Highly recommended.

I tried all 3 in this collection and still don't believe the stated 15yr old. This one is the closest to a rum being aged in a cask and still retaining a rum flavor. The other 2 were like 1/2 wine 1/2rum and none of these are worthy of the $80 price. By the way, A tour of the distillery cost $120 with advance reservations required. WHAT? Bacardi cost $30 & that was a RIP off. I have no feelings for those who support such robbery.

The color is lighter than the other two. Pleasant aroma. Slightly sweet, alcohol is the most perceptible.

Rum se nevyrábí z melasy, ale z panenské šťávy cukrové třtiny. Dozrává v sudech po bourbonu a poté v sudech po koňaku.

Aroma: Vanilková zatuchlost, máslové sušenky, karamel
Chuť: Karamel, med
Dozvuk: Vanilkový, medový, krátký
Sladkost: 1/3
Nejméně sladký, ale také nejméně výrazný z trojice XV. 3. místo

WoW… is the Description that comes to mind when I tasted the A(XV) NCCF. It is super smooth, taste does not linger but it is notable and reflects all the positive rating that has been spoken about this awesome Rum. It is worth noting that it is not sold everywhere in Panama… I found out about it. while staying in the Cobita Hotel/Spa in La Arena, Panama right next to Chitre, Panama. Anyway I bought the entire collection and my wife bought some for her clients as well. Loved it

Es un licor solo para conocedores y tiene una manera específica para ser disfrutado, hay que dejarlo reposar para verdaderamente disfrutar de todos sus matices de sabor!

So I like this rum more than the Port Cask Finish, but far less than the Oloroso Cask Finish. For me this Cognac Cask Finish, is a little bit meh, if I’m being totally honest. It’s got some sweetness to it, and the notes of Cognac certainty come through, which are both two positives in my book, and go some way to satisfying my craving for all things sweet. However, on the flip side, I do feel this rum is far to harsh and possesses a weird aftertaste. In it’s defence though, I will concede that when mixed with Coca-Cola, it does become much improved. Mind you, however much coke I used, it still had that dodgy finish to it. Another major problem I have with this Ron Abuelo Rum, is that I immediately wanted and needed to compare it to the Plantation XO 20th Anniversary Rum, which I absolutely love. And for me the Ron Abuelo literally doesn’t compare, because the Plantation Cognac Finish is far sweeter and smoother, so a much better fit for someone like me, who likes their rums as mellow as possible, and the more sugary the better! Plus at £50, it’s £12 cheaper than the Abuelo.

The nose pulls you in with brown sugar and vanilla tones and the initial taste seems sweet, but fades into a rich finish. Very nice balance of barrel finish and mild sweetness.
