The minute I smelled this one; I knew this was going to be a good experience. Maybe it’s the time it spent in cognac casks; but it almost reminded me of my absolute favourite Crown Royal Product, Cask 16.
In the mouth it was easy to tell this was no Rye but definitely a tasty rum full of wonderful vanilla and as smooth as a babies bottom.
It was hard to find anything wrong with it except maybe; it was hard for me to pick up anything else except vanilla and maybe a little oak making it a little one dimensional to me.
A more advanced taster probably can get more out of it; maybe my nose and taste buds just aren’t cooperating today. But for that reason, I am only giving this an 8.

Vona menej vyrazna, jemna, sladka, citit vanilku. V chuti je rum jemny, primerane sladky, jemne citit drevitost, je lahsi a velmi prijemny na pitie. Chutovo by som ho prirovnal ku Plantation XO alebo Puntacana Esplendido. V cene okolo 40€ je to dobra volba.

Délicieux rhum agé qui chauffe pas dans la gorge.
Pour l'instant mes préférés sont :
- Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva
- El Pasador de Oro X.O.
J'essaie de trouver d'autre rhum qui est dans le meme style que ceux la.

Nez, cassonade et épices légère. Bouche, l'attaque est douce, épices et poivre léger, finale doux sucré. Haut de gamme à mon avis.

Una grata sorpresa que encontré de pura casualidad. Como casi todos los rones guatemaltecos, también este es muy sabroso, delicado y dulce.

This is an excellent rum with a nose of brown sugar and a taste of vanilla and nuts.

My thoughtful tattoo client gave me this as a tip! I let him try Diplimatico RE and he asked at Total Wine for something similar and the clerk suggested this, he was correct! I nice sipper on the sweet side but not so much as Diplomatico, with a bit more complexity. I taste caramel,licorice, oak, fruit, vanilla...my top sipper is El Dorado 12 and Diplomatico with this right up there.

According to various internet sources this is a blend of various Guatemalan rums aged anywhere from 6 to 15 years in oak barrels then are aged some more (cannot determine the time frame) in Cognac casks in France.
An interesting backstory.
However not much information given on the rather plain label.
Let's continue...
The hue of the rum is a rich dark amber...a brownish amber. Dark caramel perhaps. It has a very appealing odor (again, my weak point since I am unable to distinguish odors well...I just say it's a nice odor or not).
Nice legs as I swirl it in my snifter.
The flavor is quite intriguing. Definitely a smooth sipping rum. A little oiliness causes it to stick to the tongue well allowing the flavors to settle. It has some pepperiness to it but does not have much of a tannin bitterness although the oak notes are clearly present albeit subtle. A nice caramel and vanilla undertones. No real burn. Instead there is a nice warmth that builds for a bit in the back of the throat and then fades ever so slowly. If the info I found is true and the rum is finished in France in Cognac casks then I understand why it has this subtle sweetness that almost borders on sugaring but plausibly isn't.
Clearly a sipping rum with a nice complexity to it. Excellent rum for the price IF you can find it.
