It's exterior and convenience are the best. A little heavy from long aging in barrel. Over time, the taste of strong vanilla and oak is joined by orange. Obviously would buy it if the cost like AE12.

Lesson learned. Flor de Caña 7... solid. Flor de Caña 12... great. Therefore 18 has to be exceptional, right? Not so much.
Nose - Leather, Tobacco, Nuts, Caramel
Palate - Bitter (!), Vanilla, Hazelnut
This rum keeps you honest. It stops one from waxing poetry while peeking at the price and the year designation. My bottle is almost empty because I make everyone taste it so they can realize they like less expensive, less esteemed rums better.

I finally got to try some. It’s got a lot going for it, it’s in the drier side for those that don’t like sweeter rums, has unique flavors. But it has to mellow and breathe in the glass more as others have mentioned. Sometimes I’m a little too impatient to wait for it. In my opinion, for the price; I shouldn’t have to do that.

Nicaragua. I just didn't like this rum. I get a really strong banana/ester flavor for it that I find off-putting.

Vôňa menej výrazná ako u dalších zo série. Prevláda hlavne karamel. Suchší. Cítim hlavne karamelky, maslo a dosť výrazné je aj štiplavé korenie. Mne aj manželke chutil najmenej no veľa ľudí ho považuje zase za najlepší trojice. 7b
Absolutely delicious! Pleasant on the nose. Initial sip tastes of seawater, quickly dissipating and finishing in a toasted coconut note.

Spices, burned wood, almost medicinal nose. Smooth palette. Peaty, almost scotch-like with a long sweet finish with hints of vanilla

Nothing to exotic, comes off a little hard at first, but it gets better with every sip. Not my favorite, but I did add a bottle to my collection at home.
