Glad a friend smuggled some in from England. This stuff was pure, clean and simply wonderful.

A strong, solid body. Rich spice, tobacco taste that stays in the mouth for a while. It feels a little bit like a very good whisky...

Lovely flavors. On the rocks or mix it with pepsi. Both works pretty well

Previously Havana Barrel Proof, Seleccion de Maestros is an incredible rum. It is my go to if I see it in a bar. Whether straight up or even mixed I love this stuff!
Big, round flavours of wood and treacle with the dry cut that Havana gives you.

Think this one is a blend of 15-35yo rums. This has everything you could ever want from a Cuban rum.
ok but not fantastic. Trying out Worthy park single estate reserve and that is all together another ballpark ... Yummy.

It's so velvety and rounded, a perfect aged cuban run - the standard for everything else. Have only ever had it for huge events so I'm sure that is tining my view.

7,5:The nose of this rum is clear and rather frank. It's a traditional Hispanic rum, simple and effective. One senses the warmth of roasting nuts, toasted wood and leather. Caramel and vanilla are treated with finesse and delicacy. The cane with pear/apple notes shines through. A well-crafted, balanced nose.
On aeration, a certain sweetness compensates for the alcohol emanating from the glass. This is a rather light rum, with a caramelized woodiness. Through this woodiness, hints of mango add dynamism. Smaller, drier notes of straw and hazelnut powder are enveloped in reduced cane syrup.
8,5:On the palate, simplicity is still the order of the day. We savor crushed red berries that are immediately sprinkled with caramel and molasses. The palate then becomes drier, with a toasty woodiness that releases a few roasted spices.
7:The finish remains in continuity, rather dry, with burnt caramel.

Its got everything I could ever want from a rum. It has a nice flavor from the aging barrels, and a very nice developed molasses flavor. The flavors are subtle but well rounded. Its also very smooth for being a 45% ABV. Much smoother than the lower ABV Añejo especial and 7 Year. All around a fantastic rum.

Schönes klares Bernstein im Glas.
In der Nase kräftige Holznoten mit Leder, Tabak und Karamell Tönen.
Im Gaumen lecker ausgewogen, etwas bitteres Karamell, etwas zähes Leder und etwas hartes Holz bilden einen soliden Körper. Firlefanz sucht man vergebens.
Im Abgang recht schroff, etwas Karamell bleibt.
Ein handwerklich gut gemachter Ron und dennoch sehr auswechselbar und lieblos. In dieser Preisklasse gibt's Bessere, sorry. 7+
Beautiful clear amber in a glass.
In the nose strong wood notes with leather, tobacco and caramel tones.
In the palate deliciously balanced, some bitter caramel, some stiff leather and some hard wood form a solid body. One searches in vain for frippery.
In the aftertaste quite rugged, some caramel remains.
A handcrafted well made Ron and yet very interchangeable and loveless. In this price range there's better, sorry. 7+
