Quite a winner. Medium spice with oak. Slightly sweet. Good amount of oil lasts in the long finish. Could envision seasoned rum veterans really liking this one.

Well after spending $50 I would expect to get something that is at a +7, this one across the board was tough to drink at first but has one some favor with me as i have consumed more of it. The alcohol and esters overwhelmed the flavors at first but let her mellow and it does just that. Over it .....is 18years old and i do not believe it has been adulterated so truth be known it is a real rum as it most likely should taste. Revisit just had some of this rum it oxidized in the bottle absolute crap and I treat my rum with Tinder gloves crap crap crap just go to the local Cesspool for some more of this stuff

To much smokey dry oak and alcohol taste. Not that sweet and short finnish as the flavours disappears to fast.

Sugar: 0 -5 gpl. Smooth rum with Oak flavors, a bit of smoke and molasses. Not overly sweet and a bit sharp at first but it mellows quite nicely. Bit of harshness on the back end. If you are going to purchase one of the available Flor De Cana rums, then make it this one. It's not available in Ontario, but at $35 bottle at some duty free ports in the Caribbean, it is a great deal. It will set you back more in the USA.

de color caramelo con un sabor de lo mejor que he probado, no dudo en recomendarlo, ya que du sabor no es invasivo lo que asegura una celebración excelente

Medium sterk krydret smak. Fin å drikke både bar og med is. Er laaaangt bedre enn sin lillebror på 12 år. Men i forhold til pris er den kun en ok rom

A tad more sweet than the twelve year, but not overly so. I like this rum quite a bit!

Нос лёгкий, изящный, слегка этаноловый для столь почтенного возраста, вполне в классической испанской стилистике без каких-либо необычных нот. Аромат раскрывается тонами ванили, карамели, нуги, кокоса, какао, печёных яблок и груш, белого персика, фундука, миндаля, апельсиновой цедры, имбиря и мускатного ореха. Вслепую никогда бы не предположил, что рому 18 лет - похож на слегка улучшенную версию Barcelo Imperial, но не такой сладкий по носу, более сухой.
Вкус, напротив, весьма сладкий, немного солоноватый и пряный. Полностью повторят нос с нотами ванили, карамели, какао, фруктов, орехов и специй. Здесь уже отчётливо чувствуется длительное влияние экс-бурбоновых бочек с их насыщенной древесно-кремовой текстурой.
Послевкусие довольно-таки продолжительное и приятное с нотами апельсина, имбиря, ванили, нуги и землистых оттенков свежего тростника.
Я ожидал чего-то экстраординарного и любопытного от заявленной производителем выдержки в 18 лет, однако это оказался в целом стандартный хороший выдержанный ром в испанском стиле без каких-либо изысков, но весьма приятный в качестве ненавязчивого дижестива или под сигару. Так что, не будем судить его строго и оценим весьма высоко

Great flavor, texture, and would recommend to people getting started in the aged rum world.

This has to be one of the best things to ever come out of Nicaragua. Flower of the Sugar Cane, indeed. It's rich, fruity, and aged long enough to be really smooth. Its great on it's own or in a mix. It's an awesome go-to rum. I find that the 12 and 18 are pretty interchangeable in mixed drinks and close when straight.
