I am a fan of abuelo but I expected more from this
Yes it is smoky and you also taste the alcohol but is very watery so a big disappointment because it is abuelo I give a 6 stars this would be lower otherwise

If you don't mind: if there are just 14 mountains 8000+ then there could be top 14 extraordinary brands/sources/styles of rum. Definitely, one of them is Abuelo/Panama peak of the Joy.
Anejo:
Banana mamma on the nose; rotten fruits, licorice and Indian spice kick. Could the best of all Anejos.
Two Oaks:
Just great, phenomenal. A bit tart what is rare. Perfectly balanced. Oak is hidden/transformed into something new. Less sweet compared to XV Oloroso, more smooth than 12yo.

A truly pleasant rum. I was alarmed at first by the initial burn on the palate, but it turned out to be a nice rum with a great smell and taste. I would buy again.

Smells exactly like fancy molasses but thankfully doesnt taste as sweet. Obviously tastes of oak with a hint of spice I couldnt narrow down. Would probably buy an entire bottle if I could find one. Not quite an eight in my books.

What a nice discovery in the rum calendar 2021. Sweet on the nose with caramel and chocolate. Banana and smoke in the mouth. Great

Dense, each molecule is infused with flavor. Incredibly soft, pleasantly smoky, fresh and perfectly balanced.
Замечательная дымность, цельность и завершенность вкуса. Без сахара и намёка на спиртуозность.
Dokonale suchý, plný kouře a koření. Zrání ve dvou typech sudů se na vůni a chuti perfektně podepsalo.

Many thanks to the Rum Ratings team for shipping this as part of their Rum Ratings Club quarterly shipments (they also shipped a mini bottle of the Abuelo Centuria, among other rums!!!)
Because this is a bourbon aged rum, I didn't expect to like it as much as the Abuelo Tawny, Oloroso, or Napoleon rums. But I found this better than all of them! The Centuria is still king of the Abuelos to me, but this is my #2 Abuelo as of this review. Has a nice sweetness to it that complements the bourbon aging well.
Smells and tastes of molasses, spice, almonds, bourbon, vanilla, caramel, brown sugar, and oak.
A very good rum and a big surprise!
