I find it difficult to rate. I recently moved cities and discovered a rum bar close by, where I had a go at it. On the plus, it felt like it had very little alcohol burn and it was easy to sip. So maybe a recommendation for someone starting to enjoy rum? But on the other hand it was very boring. A taste overflow in the beginning but no long, nice or rich aftertaste whatsoever. Maybe I have to try it again. I am tempted but in any case not the top of the bunch.
Overpriced. There is some chocolate on the palate. You can feel the alcohol burn from the youngest casks. Not a long finish.
Out of a dark brown bottle comes a dark brown rum. Looks like it should be a sweet dessert rum, but it is not. Real heavy oakiness, burnt sugar, overripe figs on the nose. Same on the tongue with maybe a hint of banana and some bourbon. Not much burn at all. Aftertaste is a lesser version of what I have described. There is a certain smokiness throughout this rum, which may put some people off. It looks sweet, but is not at all. But it is rich and heavy. I tried as a mix (ginger beer, tonic and lime) but didn't work so well for me. Better on ice with a little dilution. I'll buy it again, but probably not for everyone. It's not as good as others I have rated a 7; it's more a 6.5. But with a decent price I bumped it up to help raise its average.
Got 2 bottles: El Prohibito 15yo and Blackwell light
ЕlP15 - Highest in melanin ). Easy on nose, easy on palate, medium long aftertaste. Watery. Not spicy nor salty at all, if has added sugar then it's less than 10g\L.
Core of taste is dates and fruits, nuts notes, no barrel touches. Just positive impressions. Drives onto good mood.
BW - still pretty dark, why called light? Impressions are absolutely similar to ElP15, the same water, sugar level and "structure". Just a bit more funky.
Both are just Ok - score 7.5+
It was a Xmas present and I do like the taste. Its a warm rum with coffee, caramel and a little tobacco notes.
Der Abgang ist lang und nicht angenehm. Interessante Würze, mir zu sprittig.
It was nice to try, but i guess i will not buy it again.
Rum hat einen ansprechenden Geruch und eine angenehme Süsse. Auf der Zunge leicht spritzig, aber nicht schlecht. Aber dann kommt der Abgang - der geht leider so gar nicht ... Und hält dummerweise auch noch wirklich lange an.
Smell: Just opened bottle – coffee mixed with chocolate cake, brown sugar, caramel - creme, ripe dates, vanilla, slight leather notes mixed with glue notes on the back. There is no harsh alcohol smell at all – it feels like a mellow liquor. This at 46% would have been a lot better as it lacks some punch (IMO)– it feels diluted yet some age definitely shows – complex but weak.
Taste: Quite sweet – molasses sugar mixed with caramel, coffee, dark chocolate, there is a slight bitterness on the back which comes out from the wood even if you can’t really notice the oak. Surprisingly smooth and interestingly - has a somewhat long sweet leathery aftertaste.

When i think of rum, Mexico isn't the first place in the carribean area that comes to mind. Mexico reminds me of tequila and bad beer that gives you a bad hangover. But must say that i liked this rum. Coffee, vanilla and toffee for the nose and tounge. But a bit to sweet though.
