Atlantico Platino

What a pleasant surprise. This is the best white rum I have tasted. The odor is very strong alcohol ish. So you fear the worst. However it is actually a great rum. Taste is somewhat neutral but not bad like most other whites. The aftermath is short and intense. A genuine great experience. I would recommend this rum as a mixer.

In the nose there are hints of spices and fruits.
On the palate you can recognize chocolate on the first sip. Lately there is toffee and vanilla - way too much vanilla.
This is not really a sipper, but sure can be good for some mixing.
Rating would better if there was not so much annoying vanilla.

Inte så mycket doft och smak. (Kan bero på min snuva?). Mild och lättdrucken dock. Kort eftersmak.

Riecht sehr nach Alkohol. Geschmack anfänglich auch; anschließend einen süßen Vanillegeschmack.

Tasted at Laka Lono on 1/21/20. Pours clear. Birthday cake aroma. Big vanilla sweetness. This is so tasty it makes me reset on clear non-agricole rums.

I'm normally a bit apprehensive about white rum, but this is a different creature. Very light on the nose, just a subtle sweet coconut (pina colada) aroma. The taste is smooth, like softly flavoured water. No detection of alcohol, just a subtle sweet fruit tastes quickly replaced by a subtle dry malt taste. Very pleasant and smooth!

Got a dram of this in the advent calendar. Can imagine this being really great in a Cocktail.

Hodnotím novšiu verziu v okrúhlej fľaši s modrým pásikom. Pokiaľ viem ide o iný rum ako staršia verzia v štvorcovej fľaši.

Očakával som klasický ostrejší biely rum. Už pri ovoňani to bolo niečo úplne iné. Sladká vôňa vanilkového smotanového krému a citrusov. Chuť podobná so zaujímavým záverom. Veľmi príjemné prekvapenie. Neviem či za to môže kombinácia melasového a agricole rumu alebo dozrievanie v sudoch po víne Tempranillo, ale výsledok mi veľmi chutí. Zaujímavý bol mohol byť aj v drinkoch.
