Tasty and smooth. However, not too much of taste. Sweetness of the molasses is not there compare to other rums I had such as Brugal Extra Viejo. Still, good smooth rum, and the price is reasonable. All in all I’d go for the El Dorado 12 all day long before I bought this again and the ElD is actually a few bucks cheaper .

One of the more mellow rums at this price point. Carmel flavored but not too sweat. A little bit of vanilla, oak and spice but nothing that overpowers. Solid sipper and great mixer.

Quite sweet with much going on afterwards. nice colour and aroma in the glass. Very enjoyable but no real wow factor for me, a notch below an el dorado 12yr. Great bottle though.
After discovering and enjoying Flor de Caña 7, the 12 years bottle was inevitably the next step. Maybe a little bit better but far from a new world. No placeholder for this one on my cabinet.
NB: I am not a specialist. It just happens that I like rum.

Enjoyable sipping rum but I've tasted better. Not as smooth as some 12 years I've had

This is a rum that was on my wish list a long time. In its price range it is an ok rum. Some ice or adding a little water smooths the taste. This rum makes me curious for the 18 years and 25 years old Flor de Cana. I am absolutely going to try these 2.

Wow, best value for money I experienced till now. Around 20€, super round, little oak, chocolate, leather, coco- & other nuts, long outflow. Everbody loves this rum. For me better than or at least equal to all those Don Papa or Botucal Reserva standards.

The price quality is great for this rum. Super smooth and rich in flavour. Great neat, in cocktails or as a mixer. Lovely caramel and chocolate notes.

An interesting rum. Tastes like it is aging in barique barrels. Bit of smoke in the taste. Medium kicking. Just enough. Good. Oh yes, cheers Ondrej my firstborn!

It's definitely smooth but lacks in the flavor department especially when compared to something like Doorly's 12 yr which is also a natural rum. It's grassy tasting and there is a tiny bit of Barbancourt 8 yr Agricole-like flavor in there. There are some very mild caramel and smokey flavors there however the smokey may just be from charcoal filtering. Again it's smooth and if that's what ur looking for I recommend it, however it's just kind of blah tasting and not that special for a 12 yr rum IMO.
