I tried this rum once and I didn´t enjoyed it. It was too dry for me, and no really good taste. I would like to give it a try once more, but not by buying a bottle. But it´s very cheap though.

bananas, molasses, sugar sweet, not much alcohol burn. A good value if you can find it vs. the other sweeter rums, but too sweet for me.

Nez très agréable le caramel et le boisé font forte impression.
En bouche l'attaque est douce, le boisé et le caramel restent présents... Ensuite plus rien.
Une légère note de fût perdure à la finale mais de façon éphémère.

Když se řekne rum, synonymem je Barceló Imperial. Etalon kvality a chuti. Suchý rum, vyvážená chuť tabáku, dubového dřeva, nádech kůže a máslového karamelu. Ideální k letnímu posezení na terase s douníkem. Za skvělou cenu to nejlepší co jde pořídit. Předčí i mnohem dražší rumy. Doporučuji.

Flavor notes are bland and watered down with a substantial burn. I've had worse rums, but not many. And not at the $30 price point. Could be masked with a cola but you can do that for a lower price point.

Dark anejo caramel color with a sharp back. Nice island rum

Pleasant rum, had it on the rocks. Smokey taste ist most dominant, dry rum, not too spicy. Nothing that stands out, but nothing that stops you from enjoying it either. Good for it's price.

The rum is not bad but it has a strong taste of alcohol in the beginning, I would try it in a cocktail

Kiváló rum! Nagyon összetett, sűrű illat, érett, aszalt gyümölcsös, csokoládés, de mégsem tolakodó ízek.

Ochutnával jsem společně s Pampero Aniversario a upřímně - tyhle dva rumy mají hodně společného. Imperial mi přišel sušší, ale stejně jako Pampero i tady byly chutě pěkně uhlazené a vyzrálé. Výborný na večerní upíjení. Pampero bych, i vzhledem k maličko nižší ceně, ohodnotil o kousek výš.

Nice taste, smooth, dark bitter chocolate, little vanilla, not so sweet. Smell is nice, a bit fruity. Like it more than similar (at least for me) Kirk & Sweeney 23
