Paranubes Oaxaca Aguardiente de Caña

This a new agricole-style rum hailing from Oaxaca, bottled at 54% ABV. It opens with a hugely briny nose redolent of manzanilla olives. It’s fairly grassy as well, so agricole lovers will not be disappointed. The palate is more muted—still briny, but well-balanced by a mild sweetness. It’s quite interesting, but that nose is a challenge. Reminded me of St. George Rum Agricole.

It’s crazy to me the reviews are all over the place. This rum is amazing!

Sabe a melaza ahumada, es fuerte pero no quema, lo considero extraordinario para mixologia, perdon por el comentario pero es un ron muy artesanal semejante al mezcal artesanal.

Creo que abre una nueva categoria en los rones, si tienen la oportunidad pruebenlo.

- vůně slaná, dál nešlo pokračovat...
- chuť prvopočátek nasládlost, vzápětí nástup masochismu toho největšího kalibru...
Všem kolem chutnál, včetně ženy, já myslel, že je po mně...

Not quite my style. Very banana heavy and thin on the pallet.

Similar to Lagavulin in whisky world. Smoked salted aroma and also taste. Good to taste , but not cup of my tee :-(

Jest świeży i naturalny. Pachnie fantastycznie!! Alkohol na początku mocno uderza ( bo to mocny rum) ale później jest ok.
Długo nie mogłem się z nim dogadać, ale polubiłem to i to bardzo. Jest bardzo wyrazisty w smaku, dlatego idealnie komponuje się w koktajlach.
Do tego proces produkcji w 100 % naturalny przy udziale dzikich drożdży.

This is Banana Laffy Taffy in liquid form and it’s very unique

Extremely briny, tastes like olive juice mixed with agricole. Delicious in its own way, but a short finish

Among the few aguardientes I've had, this is one that fits very nicely among the top. The olive/grass notes are what you would expect from a truly artisanal product, not damaged by excessive industrial "polishing". For mixing in a nice "aguardiente sour" this is what I would take.

IMHO I think the attempt of the producer to sell it as a rum, is a mistake, as this leads consumers to expect something different than what it actually is. They should sell it as what it is, a sugar cane juice distillate, made for mixing, with a well adjusted price point. If you see it this way, this product works very well.
