Même maison que le fameux zacapa. Il s'agit d'un rhum savoureux qui ne prends pas de risques et sans surprise. Saveurs de vanille, caramel.

Botran är en Zacapa utan så mycket socker. Denna är fantastiskt god och helt klart värd att köpa. Kostar väl hälften av Zacapan. Tillverkas i samma fabrik som Z.

This "Botran Solera" is a wee bit harsher than the "Botran Reserva". Pleasant to sip, yes (even if quite conventional), but I do prefer the sweeter taste of the "Reserva": I drink the "Reserva" straight and this one "on the rocks".

Was not very impressed with the flavor, smell, or taste. One of the most disappointing aged rums I've had. Still better than a majority if white rums, but at the bottom of aged.

Pomerne výrazný, mierne vanilkovy a malo sladký rum bez zlej pachute

Rond, doux sans être trop sucré, épicé.
Il exprime son style (solera) tout en finesse.
Bon rapport qualité/prix.
Après plusieurs dégustations je suis toutefois un peu déçu du manque de personnalité de cette bouteille...

næsen er en anelse bedre end smagen. næsen er sødmefuld og med noter af sherry. smagen er skarpere end hvad næsen indbyder til, du får en lille overraskelse. smagen er semisød (7/10), men mest af alt tør. rigtig fin og godkendt afslutning. den smager som en lagret rom uden tilsat sødme. 7.5 af mig.

Gave it some time to breathe & tried it again. It's a good rum but missing something. Just a very simple smooth rum. I would buy it again.

Endnu en af de rommer der i eftersmagen har noter af røg.
Denne er lidt lig Ron Zacapa dog med en eftersmagt af røg, dog er den en anelse mere tør en Ron Zacapa.

I hope the change of the ownership of Zacapa won't influence the future of this rum.Its an almost perfect rum,typical Guatemalan,not as rich as a 23yo Zacapa but the price is the half. There is no rum in the price-class of 30€ which is better then this one. Wonderful teardrop bottle,quite heavy.Dark amber color, in the nose fruity,tasty.Compared to the smooth Zacapa a little bit of a bite in the throat,but it disappears immadiately and a little explosion of aromas follow.I start to hoard this,just for case it disappears
