Centenario 1985

Many thanks to Joola69 for giving me a bottle as part of a rare rum exchange. I've never seen this in the US; I believe it was purchased in Finland.

The Centenario 1985 sounds fancy, but it's one of their less expensive bottles, priced between their 12 year and 20 year olds. I found the 12 year to be just slightly better, though this is above the 7 and 9 year to me.

This isn't as sweet as the other Centenario rums, and I admit I have a bit of a sweet tooth. Smells and tastes of molasses, brown sugar, with a good bit of whiskey barrel flavor (not my favorite), and a hint of vanilla. 43%abv makes this stronger than the all the other Centenarios I've tried. Pretty good, but not one of my favorite Centenarios.

Tato podle Ron Centenario limitovaná edice v počtu 12.000 kusů pro celý svět mi velice chutná. Je to první Ron Centenario lahvovaný při 43%. Chuť whisky ze sudů ve kterých tento rum zrál je tam hodně zřetelná.

Centenario produces a tasty rums in general. This one is great example. The nose is weaker but my taste buds are telling me -excelent. On the sweeter side,with vanilla and whisky wood touch,all in perfect harmony.
Going to buy another bottle to keep in my collection.

Fantasticky rum, za skvele peniaze. Rumy zrejuce po whisky chutia ovela viac ako whisky zrejuce po rume :)

43% mu jednoducho pristane, a myslim si ze o kratky cas bude tazko dostupny

I bought it in the first place cause of the beautiful bottle design. Not sweet with a nice barrel note. Very whisky like. Wide range of aroma but subtle.

43%. Udgivet september 2020.

Dejlig rom, med noter af whisky i smagen. Eftersmagen desværre for kort.

This rum has all what you normaly expect. It is definitely level up from classic 20 and 25 version. Little higher abv suits it well and give right tone. Nice smell from whisky barell. Maybe only little short finish.

Thank You Rhum Attitude for a very efficient rum delivery during global lockdown. Tasting continues onwards with Ron Centenario 1985. Very nice and unique bottle and label design. Golden color. Sweetness from nuts and plenty of butterscotch to your nose and palate when neat sipped. Smooth ending but disappointingly short ending. Strong nine for sure.
