Tout simplement parfait. Doux, complexe, goût de caramel et banane. Il va directement dans mes favoris, j'aurai toujours cette bouteille en inventaire.
It’s basically one of the best value sipping rums , smooth and rich in the palate a good mouth feel caramel vanilla and gentle spice , added sugar yes but over ice hard to beat for double the money.
Whilst Reserva familia is in my opinion better this is a safe and easy introduction to sipping rums

No smell. No taste. Sugar syrup, at best. Even homemade liquers are less cloying. The only thing pleasing is its sweetness and soft numbing in mouth and on your tongue. For me, it was barely drinkable. Not as terrible as Zacapa 23, but still... Okay, it was smooth and easily downed, but felt like drinking "liquid sugarcubes" or something.
A smooth flavoursome rum, easily sipped over ice, and not too expensive to mix either.

The combination of Color, Aroma and Flavor make this Rum a Special Spirit.
Very affordable for a great sipping rum. If you are just beginning sipping rum, this is the one to start with.
I dont know the lingo yet but its smooth warm and a hint of spice. Very good.

Much much too sweet for me. More liquor than rum. So for those how want liquor to the coffe it maybe OK.

I have about 15 rums in my collection and I’ll admit I like them on the sweet side, but it was the smoothness of this when sipping neat that blew my mind. No need for any ice and no burn.
I still have a couple to open but this is the perfect benchmark.

In the glass, the rum is dark mahogany brown, co doubt thanks to a heavy dose of caramel coloring.
The nose is pancakes, toffee, burnt sugar, wood polish, leather - quite pleasant in fact.
The taste is major downer, however - a super sweet concoction, like drinking cola syrup, with faint wood influence and meek burn. Overpowering vanilla taste, cola, candy, brown sugar, tiramisu, maple syrup. It's like drinking liquid candy.
This is a liqueur, through and through, and I would not have a problem with it if only it was marketed transparently. The taste is not unpleasant, if you like candy, it just does not taste like rum at all.

Voor wie rum, puur gedronken, nieuw is en op ontdekkingstocht gaat, ontdekt heel wat verschillende smaken. De ene ligt je al wat beter dan de andere. Of je houdt meer van Frans getinte, of Engels getinte of Spaans getinte rums.
Maar in mijn 10 jarig delen van lekkers heb ik nog nooit iemand ontmoet die deze rum als 'minder of niet lekker' heeft bestempeld.
Een ronde, volle, iets te zoete (maar vele nieuwkomers houden daarvan), rum met zware toetsen van caramel.
Evenwichtige balans met het alcohol gevoel, zowel qua geur als smaak.
