Juste bon pour mixer, ce rhum en lui même n'a rien et n'apporte rien...
Très faible odeur et peu de goût en bouche. Mais un peu meilleur que le 4 ans
This rum is pretty good for the price! This is about the extent of sipping rum for my taste
This rum has a classic amber hue and a very nice aroma which does not lead one to think of molasses. Kind of a minor paradox.
The flavor does have some of that molasses taste to it but still keeps itself on the dry side. A hint of sweetness initially combined with a nice vanilla flavor swiftly revealing oak undertones and some pepperiness. Surprisingly mild warmth rather than a burn. The finish is dry and has some of the oak tannin bitterness which fades slowly. There are clearly other flavors present but I'm not able to distinguish them adequately. For a 7-year rum this is rather smooth. Borderline sipping rum for me but I recommend trying it as a sipper as well as a mixer. Definitely a rum to have in one's cabinet. Complex and delightful.

Un rhum vraisemblablement non trafiqué, mais dilué à 40%, d'un âge véritable de 7 ans.
Le prix est peu élevé, et le rendu correct : des notes légères de vanille, un peu de bois, quelques fruits secs et une légère pointe amère.
Pas le rhum du siècle, mais plutôt simple à boire, à utiliser pur, avec des glaçons ou pour les cocktails.
I've drunk bucket loads of the 7 yr. old Flor de Cana. It is cheap enough to mix (around 22 euro's here), it goes extremely well with cola, yet is good enough to sip. It might be the most versatile rum in the world. It fits racous parties as much as quiet late drinking on your own. I've always loved the warm nutty, buttery caramel and vanilla notes in Flor de Cana, though it's not too sweet and I was relieved to see that testresults showed it has no or very little sugar added. I also had the pleasure of drinking it in its home country Nicaragua where it is a staple for young hipsters as well as old grannies drinking in their rocking chairs. Also it is delightfully cheap over there. When I left Nicaragua I was sweating Flor de Cana Gran Reserva.
This rum is good yet I would not choose it primarily for sipping neat due to it's slightly edgy character. An ice cube may help to dilute the alcohol feeling (even though me and my friends drank it mostly neat and enjoyed it). I don't mix so I can't say how it works there, but it must work as an exceptionally great mixer as it is not very sweet and remains strong. So you can sip it if you are ready for some edge, but within Flor de Caña I would definitely reach for the wonderful 12 year old.
Realy good taste. You should try it. Don't suit everyone but I realy like it.
Belle couleur. Bon rhum avec du cola mais je suis pas un super fan des flor de cana a part bien sur le 18 ans....25 ans a venir
It smells reasonably “boozy”. You still get notes of good oak ageing.
"The finish is overall quite bitter almost like dark chocolate."

Prefer the 4 year Anejo Oro

Really nice nose on this rum. Flavors follow, but are more subtitle and perhaps a bit overwhelmed by the alcohol & astringency. The body is where this really missed for me as a sipper - very thin. Flavors reminded me of the Paul Masson VS Brandy I've been drinking, which, at 1/2 the price, is a better sipper. I thought the FDC 4 year anejo oro was both a better sipper and mixer, and around $5-$7 less per bottle, and I'd buy that again before purchasing this. Still, this is a decent rum that I wouldn't have any trouble drinking again.
