Un des rhum les plus doux a la gorge que j'ai jamais goûté. Merci on mon frère qui ma fait découvrir cette bouteille. Bon rapport qualité prix. Suffisamment complexe avec une saveur de miel. On peut le classer au top.

Cena u nas 20eur!?
:) vynikajuci vtip! Navyse s krasnou flasou!

Tak v pomere cena hodnota je tento rum absolutna svetova spicka.

Rum ma urcite obrovsku fanusikovsku zakladnu kedze je velmi dobre vybalancovany! Nicoho v nom nieje prehnane a nic v nom nechyba. Je absolutne vhodny na ciste pitie. Navyse si udrziava stalu vysoku kvalitu, co niektore rumy v tejto triede nedokazu!

Ak si porovname niektore lacnejsie rumy od BARCELO, tak tu sa rozhodne oplati si priplatit 5-6eur, lebo si priplatite vela muziky :)

A nice box and bottle are fitting for this medium mahogany rum.
On the nose is a good amount of cask with a bit of burnt sugar.
Tasting is good with a lot of oak, caramel and a mild burn.
$45 @ LCBO was a good deal.

Nett, Aroma eher flach und seicht, kann man trinken, muss man aber nicht. Ich habe diesen aus Urlaubsnostagie hier.

I was expecting a more complex taste. It's good for mixing. Not so interesting to drink pure.

Note: I'm a sipper. My opinion is based on sipping characteristics.

There's possibility one might dislike it at first, as it is not newbie friendly. That was my experience the first time, as it was one of my very early bottles and had me unprepared. At 38% vol one thinks the experience should be mild-ish. Rich sweet aromas that go all over the place once you open the bottle contribute to that feeling and it's just the moment you take a sip when you realize this one bites. And it might be quite a shock. Then a couple years later I thought I'd retry it and my experience was entirely different and it was my expectations that let me down back then, rather than its characteristics. So to me now, this is technically on par even with Flor de Caña 12 and the likes.

I am always looking for a rum that tastes different, but this one disappoint. You can taste molasses right away, but is just not as tasty as what i am looking for; it just taste the same as other rums.

For me, I am always looking for a rum that is dark, sweet, and smooth; but this one is not.

Good rum, but not the best sipping tasting one…. Where is tattoo…

I didn't expect this rum to be this good. Natural sweetness, dry, yet still really smooth. Love the taste. Perfect for sipping.
