TrΓ¨s bon rhum, doux, diffΓ©rent du 7 ans que j'ai moins aimΓ©. Un gout de chΓͺne, caramel et noisette brΓ»lΓ©e. Je le recommande mais un peu cher.

Initial astringent alcohol aroma with lots of spice present then settles down after a while in the glass. So much wood then , tobacco and a bit of leather comes through. Almost smells older than its 12 years ? Dry tasting with chocolate and raisin overtones still quite spicy but also sweet. Bit of a burn to the back of the throat , long finish.. Reminds me a bit of ED 15..
I cannot make my mind up if im into this or not , but i've got a litre a get through so hopefully it will grow on me , good value as well.

The nose indicates a high alcohol content. The taste is very smooth.

Great color, aroma, but best on ice. Not a sipping rum per say. I really like the central american rums the best.

I can't give a 10, because nothing is perfect but this one comes close. Sweet but not overpowering or chemical. Well balanced with an amazing afterburn. Pairs well with a good cigar. Complex but still tastes like a rum. I don't like rums who taste like a whiskey or a sherry. Almost no strong ethanol taste. For it's price obe you can buy with your eyes closed. The bottle could be more beautifull. Pitty it doesn't come in a decanter style bottle

A wonderful birthday present after wanting to try for a while. On the nose it is distinctive to any other rum use smelt. It has a nice subtle sweetness to it and every sip seems to bring out more flavours which I find very enjoyable. Nice long finish too allowing you to savour those flavours.
Outperforms it's price point.

Good rum selection. a little stronger than most of us normally drink. But drink this bottle down we did.
Good stuff.

After my initial introduction to the fabulous 7-years old Abuelo some years ago, the time had come for me to get to know its 12-years old brother, my expectations being really high....but the awakening was rather rude! Although it's older, it's even sweeter, and if in the case of the 7-years old the balance between dryness-sweetness is succeeded in an exemplary manner, here in our case we are talking about an intense sugary palate, a feature that covers nearly everything else. Yes, it is a pleasant rum after all, but I wouldn't prefer my rum to be as sweet as a birthday cake!
