Flor de Caña 18-Year

She's been my go-to for over 13yrs now both neat and mixed.
So many of my friends have come to love her as well. Very smooth.

Nothing special with this rum, but it’s well made enough to make people taste it to show them rum that does not taste like backwater.

The aroma is dominated by caramel, but there are hints of nuts, which are more pronounced in the taste. The "Sweetness" of the aroma would suggest a sweeter taste than it actually is, which is a positive surprise. Rather a mild burn; unfortunately the taste is relatively flat. It lacks the stunning (and surprising) finish that I have experienced when drinking the best rums (IMO).

naprosté zklamání
v prvotní chuti oříšky, ale chuť naprosto hrozná
delší doba ve skleničce pomůže chuti, ale zase zmizí vůně
první zkušenost s rumy FdC, ale na základě vzorku se nechystám v jejich objevování pokračovat
18 není doba zrání

One of my first sipping rums and I keep going back to it year after year--always have some tucked away in the back.

Some pineapples and a little banana on the nose. Tasting it is smooth with a strong vanilla flavor with some molasses. A short finish. I liked it.

Zakoupeno v Travel Free Shopu za cca 780Kč v litrové lahvi. Za tu cenu dostanete nadprůměrný rum bez přidaného cukru s vyváženou lehce kořeněnou chutí.

This is a very good rum with a caramel smell and taste. A slight vanilla taste too. Very smooth and slow finish. It is an excellent rum but it is also very similar to the 12 year old version. It is smoother than the 12 year but not by much.

Based on the reviews here, I went to try this one. The expectation was great. The smell is pleasant and smooth. Alhocol is not smelled, but also no specific flavour. The taste was dry, a bit of cocoa butter and oak wood. No more flavour were recognized wich is a bit of shame. For 18 year rum I would expect more. Maybe just not my cup of rum.

Buen ejemplar de la familia, vale la diferencia con el 12 y se disfruta su sabor con buen cuerpo pero aún así tiene mejor aroma que sabor
