Purchased for $39.99 in Delaware. Very nice bottle with a deep amber yellow color. Very nice nose. Not very leggy. An 8 year rum that tastes like it's older. Quite smooth, very tasty, with a slight burn going down. Very enjoyable.

From the smell I can only remember the honey, cream and vanilla tones. Don Pancho Origenes 8 is very light even on the smell; nothing intensive attacks your nose. It is still obvious that this is molasses rum in both nose and taste. The taste is exciting; you get the rum in your mouth and do not even know that this liquid is alcohol, it is so well rounded, you are able to keep it in your mouth for a long time and enjoy all the tones you smelled before. Suddenly you think about the statement in your brain again and you know the producers are right; this is how the rum should be made. It is slightly grassy, slightly woody, with vanilla, nutmeg and oak tones, not overly sweet. The experience is finished with slow and pleasant after burn.

A fine rum. I bought it in a great grocery store in Minocqua , Wisconsin. It was about $32. I used it mostly with tonic. It has a ''True" rum taste. Its not too heavy, but is by no means weak tasting. I would buy it again if I ran across it in store.

Tasty rum by one of the great maestros of blending and creating fine rums. Hefty dose of molasses, brown sugar, caramel and vanilla with some banana pepper and smoky oak thrown in to tame the sweetness somewhat.
This is Don Pancho's youngest sibling but don't let that dissuade you from seeking this rum out. It helps when you can find it selling at half of what the going price is. Bought this at a small Liquor store by Disney World for $24!!!!!!!
Can be mixed but better sipped neat!
Nice style and bottle presentation to house this nice rum aged in ex-bourbon barrels for 8 years!

Harapós alkohol ami végig kíséri a kortyot, nekem sok egy kicsit. Egyébként szép,közepes testű rum sok hordóval és fával az illatban és az ízben, jönne a többi íz is szépen, de hát megint ott az alkohol a végén m. Negyed óra után a pohárban kicsit lágyul a korty, megéri várni. Finom rum de kell hozzá a hangulat.

What does it mean when I say Cuban rum from Panama? Don Pancho is made by Francisco Jose Fernandez Perez (aka Don Pancho) who is a 76 year old Cuban biochemist and microbiologist who spent 50 years researching and developing the art of rum making. In fact, he was fundamental to the research and development of most Cuban brands during the 1970s.

Now don't let the terrible logo confuse you. This rum is delicious! I only rate it at the 8 because I haven't had the pleasure of trying the 18 or 30 year versions, which are substantially more expensive. This bottle, however, goes anywhere form $25-40.

Color: Maple Syrup
Nose: Oak, vanilla, caramel and maple suger
Taste: Buttery caramel, oak, nut with a complex finish of macadamia and pepper.

I enjoy with a whisky ball. However, it makes an amazing Cuba Libre and can also be enjoyed neat.

I really enjoy that bottle. Great full flavor, very smooth, just at right level of sweetness. So easy to sip that I finished bottle sooner than I would like :)

A smooth and pleasant taste, with a slight kick at the end. You will not be disappointed with this purchase. The perfect weight and right amount of kick makes this rum very fun to drink. I highly recommend this to anyone searching for that perfect rum to share.

This rum is very young, but it's got all a good rum has got to have. In the nose there ist oak and butter. The oak is on the tongue, too, with some alcool. A little bit too much of alcool, to be honest. The rum shows its youth therin, I suppose. There is dried apricot, too, in it, I think. In the aftertaste, too much of alcool again. Oak. Not an unpleasant sipping rum, though.

Smooth going down. Very nice oaky aftertaste. Would like to try some of their others.
