Centenario 20-Year

vůně sladká, karamel, banány, koření, chuť sladká, jemná, skořice, sakra dobrý 👍

Tout d'un vrai solera. En plus fait à partir de mélasse et de miel de canne.
Très enrobé avec cette pointe de sherry.
Hmmmmm !

Nice flavor of vanilla with a hint of brandy/cognac that reminds me of the less sweet Santa Teresa 1796 (better IMO). This is a real sugar bomb, syrupy, and I personally don't want to have more than 1 drink of it at a time.

The 20 year old is a very good rum, and just made me to try the other centenarios.

First off, I'm into sweet rums. And damn this hit a spot. As soon as I tasted it, unexpected surge of sweetness all over my mouth. Flavor: caramel predominantly, toffee, vanilla. Smell: mostly caramel. Absolutely no alcohol sting, throats down like water

Not a bad rum, but I haven't found anything special in it yet.

Smell: vanilla, caramel, some yeast, fruit (orange), sweet. The vanilla scent is more intense at 25th, overlapping other aromas. It also smells more sweet than the 25th.

Taste: sweetness, caramel, paper, burned sugar, orange peel (slightly bitter),
some spice, somewhat burning finish. Sweet aftertaste

Sweetness: 4/5
Seasoning: 2/5
Fruit: 2.5 / 5
Mildness: 3.5 / 5

Very smooth, delicius, perfect for the sweet rum. Infinite fruit aftertaste.

Great Rum. Just stocked up with a couple bottles for my stash.

So after reading the reviews and ratings here I picked up a bottle when I was in Miami. This is a solid 7 everything considered. The nose is candy, the palate is caramel, butterscotch, and natural spice which combines in an absolutely magnificent mid palate. The aftertaste is gentle warmth and rum cake. It is a sweet rum with the distinct “Solera” aftertaste, but it is by far the best Solera I have had yet. I grabbed this bottle for $39 which I now consider to be an absolute steal. The ratings aren’t wrong. This will be a staple as a sweet rum in my cabinet if I can get a local store to carry it.

This has definitely piqued my interest in Centenario's rums. While certainly not the best rum I've ever had, this one is very good. I really enjoy everything about it's flavor. I would definitely not ever mix with this one... it's a sipper for sure. I love it with some ice, personally. I also found that it was good to let it breathe, for the same amount of time as a scotch (1 minute for every year it's aged... so, in this case, 20 minutes... or if you happen to have an aerator, run it through that then let it breathe for 10 to 15 minutes).

Very much recommended.
