It has that wood character on the nose that is typical of the "real" Cuban rums. I don't know if it's sweetened, but it's certainly not overly sweet. Some classical Spanish-style toffee and honey in the taste as well. Not for mixing with coke in my opinion (which was one of the reasons I bought it) - a Havana Club 7 years or even Especial will do you better for less money in that department.
This rum has a deep amber colour, and a pleasant sweet smell. It is a strong rum to sip, although not too alcohol tasting. The rum has a richness to it, although I can't say that it has a specific flavour profile of anything specific. It is a little sweet and makes a rum and coke with an unusual "depth" to it - You know you're drinking rum with this one.
Le gout de cuba. Il est doux et surprenant. Je ne m'attendais a cette complexité venant de cuba. Un gout de miel et on sent la feuille de tabac. pour ne pas trop payer cher, il doit être acheté lors d un voyage.
Nice product! but complex and strong taste. It is not sweet and feels little dry. Worth the money 24 euros in Spain. Good buy!
Like a real cuban rum. Nice dark brown colour. Spices and sugar cane. Round complex taste. Seems much older than 11yo.
Today on stage : SANTIAGO DE CUBA 11 years - 40 % ABV - no added sugar
Heard a lot about Cubanian Rums in the past andf this will be my first experience with a neat sipping Cubanian Rum.
Nose : nuts, caramel ... hmm, nothing else. Pleasant but also boring. Superficially, not deep.
Palate : chocolate, slightly sweet and spicy, a fruity note is added. Orange ? Orange peel ? Yes, and apricot. Oily mouthfeel but nevertheless light. Slight alcohol notes. All in all pleasant and good drinkable.
Finish : medium, sweet caramel, maple syrup, well integrated minimal sharpness
Conclusion : all in all a pleasant and well succeeded rum for newcomers.
Similar to Zacapa 23, but not sweetened and cheeper than the Zacapa.
Nothing extraordinary, but tasteful.
Not deep but sweet without added sugar.
Really good price/performance ratio. Between 7 and 8 points but more toward 7.
Un ron elegante y suave, afrutado y aromático con largo final. Muy difícil de conseguir aún en el mismo Cuba.
Very smooth, fills your mouth with honey and apple compote. Finish is long, dry and oaky.
Waw !
Quel bel équilibre ! Rien à ajouter ! Ce rhum frise la perfection, sans aucune extravagance. Il est bon. Au nez, le parfum de mélasse est bien affirmé. Il est doux, avec des notes de cuir et de canne à sucre. On décèle bien les origines cubaines dans sa très longue finale ! Bravo !
Solid nice rum, and gave me a good headache afterward. On the sweeter side of the pallet.

Purchased a bottle of Santiago de Cuba 11 yr Rum ($40 CUC) in May 2017. Bottle still intact and will update my review upon tasting.
UPDATE (2017-10-28):
I have had this bottle of Santiago de Cuba Anejo 11 year Rum in my cabinet for over 6 months and time has come to sample it. I must admit that my expectations are high, a result of reviews read on RumRatings as well as other websites. The bottle, labelling and overall presentation of this rum was enough to convince me that this rum (which is not available in my area) is a must to bring back from Cuba and a bargain price of $40.00 CUC (approximately $60.00 CAD).
After pouring and swirling about 75 ml in my sample glass, I notice the copper colour of the rum, which looks inviting. My initial nosing observation is that of disappointment as faint smells of sugar cane and spices are barely noticeable and underwhelming. I let the rum breathe for 10 minutes and the flavours are finally coming through with notes of toffee, butterscotch and oak.
The first sip was indeed enjoyable but the spiced taste was too prominent for my liking, overshadowing the flavours of toffee and caramel. This 40% ABV rum provides a light burn and the flavours remain on the tongue for several minutes.
I am indeed disapointed by this Cuban rum as it taste more like a spiced rum, therefore I am assigning a rating of “6”. In my opinion the “Santiago de Cuba 12 year” rum is a much better and balanced rum.
