Very good rum but and at $50 a bottle its not too over priced. It has a nice oak and caramel, very smooth though a little water unlocks sweet molasses and some light banana and other tropic fruits.
This rum is an average rum and there are many better rums for the price. It has a rather harsh finish. Would not rush out to buy this again.

Dark color, very smooth, not complex, not a lot of fruit going on, but very smooth indeed.

I will only say this and I hope it suffices: any and every version of Bacardi tastes better than this one.

Good standard sipper. Well balanced, not overly sweet. A bit pricey for age but if you can find on sale is worth having in your cabinet.

This was a nice enjoyable rum that delivered on all the checkmarks. Beautiful bottle but the rubber stopper was not the easiest to close. I felt it was a bit overpriced considering some of the nicer runs out there at $20 less than this one. I may buy it again and give it another try.

I have tried Don Q Gran Anejo and I like it better than Bacardi Reserva Limitada making the Don Q the best rum from PR I have tasted. As others have mentioned, it is a little on the light side as is common in rums from PR.
A sweet almost perfumed like aroma is followed by some oak, a little spice and a lovely waft of light vanilla.
"The initial sip gives a sweet yet slightly peppery entry. Running alongside these flavours is a subtly creamy vanilla note which runs right through the rum. The finish is long and peppery."

The Best Rum for People Who Enjoy Fine Spirits
10
/10
out of 10
Notice the title of this review doesn't say this is just the best rum, but rather the best rum for anyone who truly enjoys fine spirits. This is because Don Q Gran Anejo is NOT ridden with tremendous amounts of sugar and additives added after distillation. This seems to be what most rum heads regard as 'smoothness' and 'complexity'. Why don't you guys buy some cheap 151, raw molasses, vermouth, spices and make your own pre-batched cocktail because that's what you're really drinking (and this includes Zacapa, Zaya and even Diplomatico).
The DQ GA drinks likes a dream and shows what a real unadulterated and extremely fine aged rum should taste like. I love the nuttiness from the sherry barrels and the full dark caramel mouth feel that resembles a fine cognac. If you want a one of kind cocktail make an Old Fashioned or Manhattan out of it and enjoy the fact it's not too sweet to do so right out of the bottle.
BTW, to Luis the reviewer below, I really have no idea what you're talking about comparing this or anything of Don Q's disfavorably to Bacardi. Luckily, you're a very small minority. The only thing Bacardi has done for the industry is make people stop drinking rum after they're out of high school. Oh I guess, those poor Cubans (fyi, they really left Cuba to keep exporting to the U.S. when Fidel took power) can also be credited with pumping a whole lot of waste water into the Caribbean and confusing consumers about what really is Puerto Rican rum. And, nothing of Bacardi's even the 'Facundo' B.S. comes even close to this Gran Anejo. I hope you got paid for your ignorant review or will someday. Otherwise, I really have no idea what's wrong with you.
