Abuelo Reserva Superior 7-Year

commentaire a venir

Good price for a smooth sweet rum. The cubata excellent and straight up too quite sipper.

Great on the nose but flavor is far more simple in the glass though still rewarding with relatively strong smokey oak, and a very abrupt chocolate caramel finish.

Abuelo is a fine smelling rum with some shades of raisins, chocolate and melase in the smell, but the taste id very uncomplicated, whisky-like with outstanding influence of wood.

This was the very first aged rum bottle I ever purchased. Found it in a little gift shop in Vero Beach FL and thought I would try it. This is how I crossed the barrier from bourbon to rum and it was really good, especially for the price. Recommend this all day long to anyone who is looking to get into rum for a small investment.

rhum en rapport avec son prix. Pas transcendant mais tout de même correct qui au vu du prix mériterait une meilleure note mais bon... ça reste moyen à mon gout.

This rum has a light amber, honey colour. Floral, vanilla and karamel on the nose. Medium body with a great round texture. Great balance between sweet and dry with taste of toffee, karamel, vanilla and flowers or apple blossom to be more specific. Some leather and smoke in the finish.

Good luck finding a better rum with this age / price range

This is okay Rum but miss some body and aftertaste, easy to drink and it is okay straight. I have read that it is among the best 7 years Rum! Price is really ok, I paid around 18 euros in Spain.

Good rum at good price. Little hint of honey in aroma and taste. Good with few drops of water or with one small ice-cube.

lidt skarp, lidt sprittet, men stor smag, stor duft og god tør sødme. masser af fylde og god eftersmag. Dejligt at opleve for så billig en rom

I was in Panama last year and only discovered the 7 Anos just before i left (i did bring a bottle home with me though). Up until then i was drinking the standard Abuelo Anejo. The 7 Anos is well worth the slight increase in price if you're after a sipper, its much smoother with a lovely sweet/slightly spicy taste.

Excellent for mixing, but the 12 year is better for sipping.

my first rum. Thin taste, seems very sweet to me. Nothing special. Not well balanced. Happy to taste it, but not repeating...

Alkohol: 40 %
Původ: Panama
Aroma: Cedr, lesní med, vanilka, kůže a máta. Bohužel je aroma uzavřenější, musím ve sklence víc hledat. (84 b)
Chuť: Medově nasládlá chuť, pikantní exotická dřevitost, lehce koření. Chuť je uhlazená, ale výraznější než aroma a poměrně bohatá. (86 b)
Body: 85
Shrnutí: Tohle je příjemný rum, za cenu okolo pětistovky je to určitě dobrý nákup. Levnější Abuelo Añejo je o dost horší, dražší Abuelo 12y zase o hodně lepší. Myslím, že odstupňované jak cenově, tak i kvalitou to v Abuelu mají velmi dobře a cenový nárůst dobře kopíruje nárůst kvality.

Excellent aroma, above average taste, just the finish could be little bit better.

Ein Rum der zwar sehr kräftig ist den man aber trotzdem auch gut pur trinken kann. Gemischt hat habe ich ihn noch nicht probiert.

A very nice "Cuban" style rum

Expected no less than great from Abuelo. Good balance of wood notes and sweetness. First time I sat down with the bottle, I ended up finishing half.

profumi di cacao e vaniglia............splendido

Smooth sipping rum at a great price

Maybe it's the bourbon barrel aging? This rum doesn't strike me as sweet on the nose - in fact after some air I smell faint cigar-box. But the palette is buttery and the finish is rich and just slightly sweet. There is definitely complexity here, as you'd expect from this age bracket, but it's not as much as I find in other rums. This rum lasts a LONG time on the palette, too, reminiscent of a good cognac.

Nice colour, nice smell and taste with just the right amount of swetteness

Very Nice Smooth rum, great daily drinker

This is a good rum at a good price.
