Flor de Caña Gran Reserva 7-Year

Starting into this there is a smooth mouth feel with medium throat burn. Sweetness is right where I like my sipping rum (no added sugar!). Pretty light flavors of dry carmel, vanilla, and oak followed by a medium length finish with pleasant aftertaste. It's not a complex one of a kind sipper, but still a good entry level sipping rum.

I have went trough quite some rums by now, and yet this one strikes me with the excellence in execution - it is well built, it has some legend behind, lacks nothing, and has no confusion in ambition delivery. I have dropped drinking, just adventuring into somewhat special festivity on occasion, of which more than decent partner is this sinful, otherwise proper rum.

For being as cheap as this rum is, it’s probably a better quality rum for sipping than most conventional sipping rums are. Give it like 5 minutes sitting in the glass and you’re good to go

Even with the larger size being available, the 12 Year is just so much better. If I want a good cheap rum, I like Kaniche Reserve.

I fell in love with this for Cuba Libres while in Mexico and it continues to a very good option to utilize as a mixer when you don't want to just go with a white rum.

A bit harsh for sipping, but makes a decent cocktail.

I was really impressed by the flavor of this rum, not too sweet by solid vanilla and caramel notes. It received three "yum"s and a doodled heart as well as a circled YES. I sampled neat and then as a Daiquiri, both forms were excellent.

The taste is like mediocre rum diluted with water, and at the same time it is alcoholic. 7-year-old aging unnoticeable, weak inexpressive taste, and at the same time the price is unreasonably high.

Rum ze sekce, pijeme u ohně s kamarády v lese, mě na něm vadí něco co bych nazval mýdlo.

Smells rich yet superficial or watered down. Taste is forgettable with a strong tinge of alcohol that is a little off putting when drinking neat. Unfortunately, it’s not much tastier mixed with Coke and lime. I could have sworn the quality was better say 5+ years ago…tastes cheap (even for the price point) or my tastes have changed.
