Don Q Gran Anejo

Vintage bottle tasted thanks to Tia Soto on 3-24-24. Amber in color with a pronounced green apple aroma. A bit of cardboard perhaps due to the reputed 8 years in an opened bottle. Low in sweetness, mild toffee, black pepper. This seems more like a Barbados rum than one from PR. Astringent finish.

Not really a sipper, slightly sweet, a bit spicy, but not much body or finish other than warm alcohol and slight astringency.

Tasted Sunday March 24 Palm Sunday courtesy of Soto's sojourn to Kearney.
Appearance: light gold
Aroma: vanilla, oak.
Flavor: blackberry, currant, oak, vanilla
Tasting notes: So glad that the bar in Kearney gifted Soto the end of this bottle; the bottle itself is lovely but the contents - oh how I wish this rum was still in production. Perhaps I'm making it up, but I did feel like I could taste currant and blackberry along with vanilla.

Nice easy rum to relax to a summer rum for a nice day

Sweet, smooth, and a hint of wood. Smooth finish that doesn’t linger. Don Q has this one dialed in!

Great tasting rum. Perfect balance, no over powering flavors, not to sweet, not to strong just good!

I really enjoyed this bottle.. It was a very nice experience... The smell is so smooth and delicate. Strong ones of vanilla and white chocolate. You can recognize that this is a grown up rum taste. It has a full body.. rich tones of toffee and vanilla a bit of smoke and just a bit of wood.. perfect balance. I truly recommend this one.

Nem lesz nagy kedvenc, így aki magas minőségű rumot szeretne inni az ne ezt válassza.

Dry and oak. A bit too complex and bitter vs double cast.

leave it in the glass 10-15 minutes because it s a little bit harsh on the nose ...
but than you have a good dry rum, a little bit of oak and vanilla,
for me the predominant note is croissant,
also in the medium finish i have croissant in the mouth ...
