Delicate flavour lovely chocolate taste afterwards amazingly sweet on the rocks to mix with any mixer would be sacrilege. Very sweet dessert rum that's clearly dosed
This is my favorite rum. And the best thing is his price :)

But this did not make me a fanboy either. It is smooth with caramel taste. But to sweet even for me who likes sweeter rums. Pricewise it is 30-35 EUR. I'd not deny sipping it at a party but won't buy this again for my cabinet.

The nose is cream pie and cinnamon (a bit liquerish). It enters swift with a creamy nuance and ends with a touch of milk choccolate. Sacher cake. Whiskey soft feeling.
Easy to drink. Warm and not to much alcohol in your mouth.

Well balanced in taste for me. Pleasant aroma with a coconut finish. Sweetish. Very tasty.

Дата розлива: 25.01.2021г.
Выдержка до 12 лет в бочках ex-bourbon и ex-whisky.
В основе купажа 80% тяжёлого рома (pot still) и 20% лёгкого непрерывной перегонки (columns still).
Слово «botuca» в переводе означает «зелёные горы». Дистиллерия находится рядом с национальным парком Terepaima, в экологически чистой местности.
На бутылке изображен Дон Хуанчо – аристократ XIX века, коллекционер и почитатель рома. Но, возможно, это всего лишь легенда маркетологов.
Нос: сладость, сухофрукты, орехи, бурбонные ноты, дубовая терпкость, немного медицинских ароматов. Через час обилие сухофруктов и специй, ром можно легко спутать с хорошим коньяком.
Вкус: мягкий, сладкий, слегка танинный и табачный.
Финиш: средний, с лёгкой сладостью.
Итог: отличный ром, в компании с ним можно хорошо провести вечер.

An All Around Lovely Rum!

Tonight’s Rum, Botucal Reserva Exclusiva Rum from Venezuela. Does that bottle look familiar? Well, it should, it’s reported to be the same as Dimplomatico but branded for the German market… So is this a new Rum? I’ll let you decide.
In the glass it’s a light copper color, lighter than it should be for a 12 year; but then it’s a blend and not 100% 12 year. So that makes sense. The nose is of orange, apricots with an under current of almond and brown sugar. It’s not a demarara bouquet as I expected.
My first sip impression finds it easy to start with some heat building over 15 to 20 seconds. It’s Pleasant. It’s not too sweet; I’ve had worse (sweeter). A couple more sips in, the heat subsides and it’s replaced with a bit of warmth in the tummy.
Flavours include orange, caramel or toffee. Some vanilla makes an appearance and the sweetness is just about right. More sips, and the toffee comes out even more. It’s rich and well balanced.
The finish is mild after those few sips and long lasting. It smacks a little dry but the essences of soft butter and brown sugar offset the slight dryness for sure. If you can find this one, I put it at a 9/10 and number 370 of my 500 Rum. Best served neat! If you can’t find Botucal get the Dimplomatico (That too is one of my faves) Cheers!
