Pampero Aniversario Reserva Exclusiva 40% Venezuela

Eye: Worn brownish copper

Nose: Pleasingly coy nose on this one at introduction. Smells a little too sweet and one dimensional to be refined and makes me think it is quiet young with the ambition to seem older than it is. Like a teenage boy with grandads perfume on. Kind of oily and thick which can be promising but the lack of edge raises a red flag for me. Then comes the compulsory butter scotch and caramel, some dried fruits, hazel and walnuts. Detect also margarine (that´s a first) and vanilla coke. It also reminds me of Versace Edt Pour Homme but I suspect I´ve bumped into someone with that fragrance on earlier today. It develops somewhat in the glass and after a while I love the smell. Nougat, some citrus like orange marmalade and grape fruit zest. Very nice, could smell this all night!

Mouth: Yes, very sweet. Oh, and it comes in waves. First a small swell of cool sweetness with some exotic fruits, then a slightly larger swell carrying dried fruits and nougat and finishes with a monster wave of embrowned butter and burnt sugar, molasses even. This is the fault in my humble opinion. It is very mellow throughout the whole palate and is evenly presented with its entire register of flavors. In that respect it is very well balanced. I like each and every element but it is just too sweet and sugary which in the long run is …boring. Taste good though.

Reaction: As usual I don´t have a clue of what I am drinking. Apart from the treacle-like sweetness it is rather gentle and cool which is an unusual but welcome feature. It is also anonymous and lack that individuality I do appreciate so much in 40%-ABV-and-above-spirits. After 30 minutes I don´t agree with myself about the age statement anymore. I feels older and more self-confident towards the end but it seem to have lost interest in itself. Like an I-am-what-I-am-attitude. Good stuff but a tad sweet and simple. Seems like a bargain taking the price into account, but again, when do I drink it?

Sweet smell of vanilla and oak, beautiful dark amber colour. First taste is great - dark and sweet, then comes a short pause of something bitter, smoky and almost tar-y before the slightly port-like lingering sweet aftertaste. Best 20$ rum I've had.

Purchased in the Canaries for only 18euros, not too sweet, good zipping rum and very nice leather pouche that comes with it. It comes close to the Diplomatico reserca ex but you pay a lot less...

One of the original fancy rums before rum became fancy in Venezuela, well balanced flavor great in a cuba libre and still great to sip, nice presentation with the leather pouch.

It's fine to sip it neat, but it really opens up and shines on the rocks. Nice leather pouch makes for a nice gift. One of the best rums I had, would definitely buy again.

Δαμάσκηνο, καμένη καραμέλα και σοκολάτα. Ένα πολύ νόστιμο ρούμι με ήπια γλυκύτητα και υπέροχο χρώμα που, όμως, δεν έχει μεγάλη επίγευση.

One of the first rums I enjoyed. It's not to sweet and tastes slightly as tobacco in a good way. Boring in the length and not something I'm gonna buy again, but it's great for beginners

Mooi rum. Heeft eerst een lekkere rokerige smaak met tonen van caramel en vanille. Heeft een lekkere afdronk.

Taste is a personal opinion you do not have to take after me, of course it is a good rum.

The leather taste opens up immediately and it's a major note on my pallete along with a darkness of the liquid.
This rum is quite opposite in terms of sweetness to it's competition in it's price range - it's far from sweet. Leather, tobacco and maybe wood notes, makes this a good choice for go to everyday rum. You wont be bored, it's rich on pallete and it asks to be discovered again and again. Afterburn is quite harsh.
