El Ron Prohibido Gran Reserva 15-Year

В аромате - карамель и лёгкие нотки ванили и чего-то фруктово-травянистого (гвоздика?), спиртуозность низкая. Во вкусе доминирует как будто сливочная карамель, спиртовое жжение присутствует, но быстро сходит на нет, уступая место послевкусию - опять же карамели с травами. Сочетание сладости жжёного сахара с пряными травами и небольшой спиртуозностью даёт интересный эффект - ром сладкий, но не приторный, мягкий, но с характером - каким настоящий ром, в моём понимании, и должен быть.

Aroma: caramel as the main element, some notes of vanilla and smth fruitty and herby (carnation?), spirit harshness is low. Taste is dominated by butterscotch-like caramel, spirit is present as well, but it disappears quickly and yields to the aftertaste - again caramel with herbs. This combination of burnt sugar with herbs and some spirit harshness gives an interesting effect - the rum is sweet, but not too sugary, smooth, but has a strong character - for me thats what a real rum should be.

Un solera sans grande surprise plutôt épicé et piquant en bouche.
On sent bien le bois et le caramel, mais bon...

Den är mycket prisvärd med den smak och kryddning för att vara ett Mexicansk rom. Räcker med ett glas för att njuta av denna rom

If you like your rums sweet then you'll love this one but for my taste it just a little too sweet. A nice nose of cinnamon and nuts is followed by a very sweet first taste of honey, dried fruit and chocolate. I will primarily be drinking this as an after dinner dessert drink.

The older brother of the 12 has some additional aromas of chocolate and pepper.
The taste is quite dark overall with different spices. especially cloves. It's more complex but still reminds me of a spiced rum. The taste is earthy with burned sugar, dry fruits, cold peach tea and spices. It's not bad but it reminds me of spiced rums.
I can't determine it's distillery character. Therefor 55 points.

Smell: caramell, burned sugar, dry fruits (peach), some nuts, oak, earth, spices
Taste: caramel, cocoa/dark chocolate, vanilla, wet barrel (earth), cloves, nutmeg, nuts
Finish: spice, bitterness in the sweetness (like dark chocolate), pepper

Looking forward to taste the El Ron Prohibido Reserva 22

Ve vůni příjemný, nasládlý, velmi chutný rum z Mexika

Hier hou ik van , lekker zoet met nuances van honing, gedroogde vruchten.
Met aroma's van koffie likeur, aanhouden en terugkerend, voor een goede prijs.
zeker een Rum die aanslaat bij het vrouwelijk publiek.
Mooie fles met een prachtige houten gevangenis kist TOP,
En een prachtig verhaal , krijg je er zo maar bij. ;-)

Taste likes IT smells, sweet and dark. Nice color in a fine bottle.
Maybe a strange combination Mexico and rhum, and it is... but i gave it a change.
After many glass it taste also sweet and better :-)
