I can see why this rum is liked by many. It is sweet and smooth, requires minimal effort really.
I had high hopes, as this is in the higher end of what I am willing to spend on a rum. Accordingly, I was let down quite a bit when I found that this is a sugary, smooth, almost viscose rum liqueur.
Taste is - to me - mostly that of Spanish brandy. Sweet, dried fruits, a hint of almond, very smooth presentation. Which is fine, but I can have a better experience with a Spanish brandy half the price (Osborne Magno for example).
Too sweet, too smooth, nothing interesting. Useful for sweetening other rums, but I rarely do that. Stupid waste of money for me. But thus I learn...
Would like to taste what it would be like without all the added sugar.

Beautiful, medium body, dense flavors. Terrific addition to the Centenario family.

High value, low complexity. Something for sweet girls or with sweet girls.
Not our favourite rum somehow at all but every taste is different

I like 25y and very similar 20y - both are smooth and delicious rums.

This is my favorite rum. It is nice and sweet overall but we’ll balanced. I love the flavor and the lingering after taste. It’s not a sweet and doesn’t coat my mouth as much as other sweet rums do (Diplomatico). It is pretty hard to find where I live in Chicago so when I do see it I’m always sure to stock up on a few bottles. Highly recommend.

This rum is a Solera-style blend from 6 to 20 year old rums, made in Costa Rica. When reviewing the past ratings of this rum, my expectations were high. And it met the expectations!
The rum has a deep amber to copper color. In the nose there is sugar cane, vanilla, the richness of dark caramel and the floral aromas of honey. The taste starts with a sharp touch of sweet alcohol and immediately a deep and complex flavor takes over. What an experience! Like in the nose, first some honey and then the depth of dark caramel. A long, sweet -but not too sweet-, deep aftertaste. It is so enjoyable, you would be drinking this over and over.
Smooth balanced rum, very enjoyable, top 3 best rums i have tried so far.

Rum is very sweet, but not annoying. Good feeling alcohol on tongue, very pleasant. Also sweet smell. Very good choise for sipping when you want something more sweet.
