El Ron Prohibido Habanero 12-Year

Schmeckt Pur wie Medizin. Hatte mir mehr vorgestellt.

In the bottle purchased in San Antonio for $22. Tasted on 4-1-24. Pours a dark purple garnet color. Aroma of chocolate, raisins, and tobacco. Milder flavors with a silky palate. Grapes, candy sweetness, and leather. Mild peppery metallic finish. Less of the PX shows through this.

Sweet and Woody with rich flavors. More balanced than 15 year.

Tasted at the Forbidden Hole Good Friday March 29 2024
Appearance: Amber
Aroma: molasses, sweet
Flavor: molasses with heat. I LOVE IT.

I bought it on a trip to Mexico knowing its history. Nice bottle. Pleasant, fruity aroma. Slightly sweet, noticeable alcohol. The flavor bouquet is completely out of harmony.

Very different from what I'm used to. I get it why it got prohibited... There where so many better rum out there... Loss of barrels to age it :D

Way to sweet. Not even serviceable as a liqueur.
Had to give it away ;)

Taste: raisin, cinnamon and pepper. Little bit of coffee taste.
El Ron Prohibido Gran Reserva 15 has a stronger and spicier taste.

Great bottle design and story is interesting but that's it.
It's quite good but I expected more for its price.

Niezły rum, ciemny, dość wytrawny, aromaty suszonych owoców, śliwki, może winogron/ rodzynek, nuty drewniane w smaku. Zapach słodszy niż smak. Znośny do picia solo, zostawia winny posmak na języku (widać wpływ beczki). Przez swoje nuty ciekawy do wykorzystania w koktajlach. Na pewno rzecz warta spróbowania w poszukiwaniu swojego ulubionego rumu ;) ciekawa historia i butelka.
