Companero Elixir Orange

Enjoyed a bottle of Companero Elixir Orange with my buddies while chilling out in Germany. Very nice box and bottle design. Dark brown color. Very strong orange flavor to both nose and palate. Not artificial orange like Pyrat has, so easily earns 2 points more.

Je to v podstatě spíše kříženec Triple sec a Malibu, než rum... Chuť ani vůně neurazí, spousta pomerančů, sladkost kokosu, celkem příjemné pití, ale tohle pod pojmem rum opravdu nečekám...

Hned po otevření se projeví velmi výrazná vůně kokosu, což mě vzhledem k názvu překvapilo. Pomeranč je cítit také, ale až za kokosem. Chuť je na počátku velmi sladká, jako u likéru, ovšem na rozdíl od něj se vzápětí projeví hřejivost a možná na chvilku trošku ostřejší chuť (ale spíš relativně vzato k počáteční sladkosti), která připomene, že obsah alkoholu řadí tento kousek do rumů. Delší dochuť, u které počáteční kokos rychle mizí a dává vystoupit pomeranči. Velmi příjemné, klidně bych u toho strávil večer :)

The aroma seams to be artificial and overwhelmes that rum. Strange. Like orange cake flavour oil.

It's Fine, if you Like rum that doesn't tastes Like rum. The Orange is a little bit to overwelming for me, and I lost the good old rum flavour. To bad because it couldve been good.

Lakomil som sa ho kúpiť už dlhšie. Na šťastie som ochutnal iba poldeco. Rum je pekne voňavý, cítiť pomaranč, jemne kokos. Chuť je veľmi sládka, pre mňa až nepríjemne. Výrazná chuť pomaranča so sladkou kokosou dochuťou. Záver je trošku hrejivý. Mám rad pritom sladké rumy. Ak to porovnám s Legendariom, tak ten mi podstatne viac chutí. Pre mňa sklamanie, je to skôr likér ako rum.

Love the orange taste but too harsh to drink straight and I fear it may get overshadowed if mixed

flavored rum. With a strong taste of orange and coconut. maybe a little more to the liqueur than rum

Very sweet orange flavour, but still burning alcohol...

A lip-smacking expression from 1423's Compañero range, based around rum from Trinidad and flavoured with plenty of orange alongside various tropical deliciousness. Well suited to enjoying alongside particularly sweet puddings, we reckon. Loads of fresh orange juiciness, with a hint of waxy orange peel underneath. Burnt sugar, cinnamon and five spice develop alongside the citrus.

It is more sugar than rum. Can be used as curiosity or intersting desert. Knowith that I quite enjoyed it.

Again, a rum that I only tasted once, so keep it in mind. A nice smell of coconut to me, but the taste is very different: orange, herbs, chocolate. Somewhat interesting, but I might need a bit of time to get used to it. Would give it another try if I have a chance to, but the taste is bit too complicated/atypical to me.

It has smell beautiful exotic fruits, also the taste is similar. Maybe isn't brilliant but for me it was really pleasure and fun.

Flavored but actually very good! Interesting why rated so low by others:(

Zoete rumlikeur met sinaasappelsmaak. 40% abv. Niet slecht voor in een cocktail.

First of. This is not really rum, it's liquor. So the rating depends on what you're expecting I guess. The nose is, not surprisingly, filled with orange, the dried candied kind you get at christmas, and fresh coconut. Sipping reveals a very, very sweet character, again with orange/coconut notes. It's suspiciously smooth and obviously a tampered "rum". It's pure candy and could be used as a desert if your in the mood i geuss. In that regard it's not bad.

I have a sweet tooth, but with that said some of the rums produced in this day and age with lots of added sugar and flavouring just crosses the line of what constitutes a rum over to the side of liqueurs.

Nose: Very sweet with overpowering scent of orange and a bit of coconut
Taste: Extreme sweetness with a very strong flavour of orange and a hint of coconut
Overall: This is just too sweet for me. I would maybe use it in the kitchen as a replacement for Grand Marnier, but that is how far i would go with this one.

Colour dark.
Smell is good.
Taste is ok.
Aftertaste is ok.

170 grams of sugar added, compared to Zacapa 23's 20 or Diplomatico's 40. Quite ridiculous. Still, it's somewhat enjoyable. Flavor is dominated by coconut, orange and sugar. If you like liqueur with a tropical flavor, you'll like this.

Intense on the nose with ripe fruits, tangerine, orange, long after taste on account of sugar. It is really too sweet for my expectation for rum; alkohol is warm but short

I like sweet rum, but this is just too sweet, too much orange smell and taste, would barely call this a rum.

The nose is sweet and round with a scent of orange and coconut. On the palate it is smooth, rich and with delicious and sweet smells of orange and coconut. This is a very nice rom perfect for your candy needs

Zajímavé pití. Ocení asi i ženy. Vůně příjemně kokosová, sladká. Chuť jemná, kokos v pozadí, spíš pomerančová. Příjemné pití, ale spíše charakteru likéru než klasický rum.
