All great stories have an inspirational beginning, the same as Añejo has been for Ron Abuelo. It’s our youngest rum, both in age and spirit. Añejo is a fun and enjoyable first impression to our Panamanian rum making tradition. Where all the great stories begin.

Not the best as a sipper, I could see using it as a mixer.

I can drink this if offered. I wouldn't willingly pay for it though. There are a lot better options out there.

I get it on sale for 13 euro without expecting much. Quite surprised me that is good neat. On the nose you feel some sweet and cola nug. The taste is good with some little biterness at the end. Overall is good rum.

I tasted this at my in-laws house. I didn’t get any of the smoke nose or flavor others have noted, but subtle banana and some caramel were there. I usually try a new rum on ice first, and then add coke if I need to. This certainly didn’t need coke, but handles it just fine for a boat drink.
To me it’s what a non-pretentious rum for either sipping or drinking should be.
When I started looking for I bottle of this Anejo, I came across an Abuelo XV Tawny Port. I’m expecting a lot from that bottle. It’s sitting in the shelf waiting for a special occasion.

Just good rum. not sweet, not alcoholic, no signature Abuelo's smokiness and vanilla. Perfect for a cocktail, nothing special stands out, even smooth taste.

Tasted 2/7/22 at Laka Lono as part of a 4 rum flight of Abuelos on the way to completing Quartermaster status.
Aroma: bit o' apple
At the time I felt this was a prototype anejo
Edit: Also tasted June 23, 2021 at Laka Lono. This time I gave it a 5/5 so I will stick with the overall 9/10 rating from the previous entry. Notes indicate I tasted it and then had it made into a Daiquiri by Michael. Notes read, "Smokey goodness!" and "love!!!"

Just for the taste it would be 7. Nice barrely start, slightly sweet finish. But the price. It's dirty cheap, but tastes OK. That's +1 point.

Timido ma lascia trasparire un po' di personalità.

Sitting on the balcony overlooking Casco Viejo, old Panama city this stuff grows on you.

I tried Anejo after having the Anejo 12 as I like to see what the range of rum tastes from a maker that sells a similar rum at different levels and if I can tell if the tailings are more present in the budget rum. This one is definitely a young rum though better than most young rums. The low price makes this a rum that beats shelf expectations.
Bottle: This is old school rum labeling, which I really like rather than overly crafted designs made to attract the eye and deceive the brain.
Color: You cannot see the rum due to the bottle being brown, but the rum is light yellow.
Bottle Smell: Young rum, a little harsh, light oak, something of the sweet smell fermented molasses.
Glass Smell: Opens up and smells better, little bit of sweetness.
Taste: Hard on the tongue, few oils, this continues to the throat. A good rum odor does linger in the nose. Better than most large label rums in its price range.
I enjoyed this rum and would drink it again. An good value for mixing or carrying in a flask on the go.
