Barcelo Gran Anejo

We picked up at least a case of this at the supermarket in DR for drinking every day and all day. Good straight, great mixed, and it was only like 8 bucks or so. Hard to remember for some reason.
A simple, non-oaky, lightly aged, and lightly colored basic rum similar to bacardi gold, but smoother and slightly more complex.
Mixed with lime and coke, sugar and lime (daquiri), and san pelligrino lemon-ade seltzer. It never got old, unlike the DR's most popular beer, El Presidente, which was hard to drink by the third day (but not impossible ;)

Can't say anything bad about the taste but I simply do not enjoy drinking it. The aftertaste is a bit like artificial sugar powder which doesn't help as well.

This was my first rum, and I loved it. Little did I know that after a few other bottles, this one tastes flat, boring and shallow. Ok for starters I guess

Ganska spritig rom med trevlig eftersmak. Helt klart godkänd med tanke på det låga priset

First I thought i was robbed and someone gave me whiskey instead of the rum I ordered. It’s first taste is like whiskey but with the aftertaste is kind of a rum. I did not like it.

This rum is a great value , not supper complex, but smooth as an entry level rum, great mixer

Smooth and enjoyable for a casual quiet Saturday night.

Nice, relatively cheap rum. Qualitative enough to drink neat.

This rum was not really my type of rum. It’s kinda lame in taste if you want my personal opinion. I mixed it out with Jaguara rum, just to finish the bottle, lol.
Main reason is probably cause it’s not sweet enough or give me the burning/warm feeling as I prefer.

Spicy taste with barrel character, hints of orange, brown sugar, dried fruit, nuts and cinnamon.

Bottle: 700ml
Alcohol: 37.5%
Sugar content: 4g/l

Not as great as the Imperial, it is nice and smooth but lacks its personality. However, given this one costs a little over half of the price of the Imperial, the Gran Anejo is awesome. It's sweeter, more smooth, more... regular.
