Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This one is slightly better than the Eximo and the first thing is that this one has g far more wood to it. I guess many wont like the woody notes. The nose is fruity with vanilla followed by coconut and caramel. A hint of sherry is there as well. The palate is balanced and sweet with fruit and vanilla. Caramel, molasses and sherry follows. Here the oak really hits you, seriously. The finish is also full of oak, sweet and fruity with spices. Looking at the price the Eximo is the better option considering price to quality. "

Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"I think this rum will surprise most rum drinkers because its really good. Very similar in taste to the Reserva Limitada. The nose is fruity and with a lot of spices. In the back i can find wine, wood and nuts. The palate sets off very spicy but it quickly settles and then you get a lot of fruit and then some wood, honey and bourbon. A nicely balanced and full bodied rum. The finish is medium to long. Again spicy, lightly sweet and fruity with wood and pepper. "

"I got this one from a friend because he wanted to tease me, but he failed because though I don't like Bacardi I was nicely surprised. The nose is light and a bit sweet. Vanilla is very obvious with oak without overpowering the caramel, coconut and honey. The palate is sweet fruity with cinnamon, peat and oak. A nice surprise and definitely one you can enjoy without mixing. The finish is medium long, warm and sweet. "

Top review from Frank:
"Times not high-level rum and still without additives... you can try. Did not know Don Q yet. Clearly a representative of the Spanish style.Nose: fruity-woody and as the first light cigar tobacco, wrapped in vanilla and toffee. The fruit goes in the direction of green apple with some lemon. Seems quite light overall, the alcohol stings a bit despite being only 49%. Fairly ok. 72Palate: spicy-woody and tobacco here as well. A bit spicy at first though and slightly salty-bitter, pepper with a hint of caraway. Overall a bit short and flat. 68Not bad, but not interesting enough either. The tobacco note, however, I find quite good."

Top review from Lutz Lungershausen :
"Fruity, honeyed nose, which unfortunately dissipated relatively quickly. On the palate then powerful, woody astringent with a long, warm finish. I prefer to enjoy it in mixers than pure."

Top review from Christoph:
"Pleasant spicy wood notes. Especially in the finish a lot of honey. Vanilla is neatly present. Fruit remains in the background. Alcohol is well integrated per se, but the finish is very intense. Beautiful glue nose."
RX16518
Top review from Christian Rudt:
"Mal wieder ein Donq Double cask. Und auch dieser zeigt sich sehr weich und ausgewogen. Zitrus, etwas Karamell und eine erdige, ganz leicht modrige Note zeichnen ihn aus. Wenn es mal was leichtes sein soll oder man sich vertieft mit Fasslagerung befassen will ist man hier richtig. Der Einfluss des weinfasses ist schon sehr deutlich. Gefällig würde es für mich am ehesten treffen."

Top review from lukasdrinkinghabits:
"Don Q makes light, very light rum. Who expects flavor bombs is wrong here, neither full-bodied rum nor super heavy (and sweetened) wood can be found here. The star is the distillate, which comes elegant and delicate. Tasted neat, aromas of dried yellow fruits and wood show up, in the mouth a champagne-like quality is added, a touch of oleo saccharum combines with pear and the yellow fruits to create a wonderful delicate creaminess. The 40% unfortunately negates this somewhat.The finish is again a bit more tart and woody, delicate tannins and en touch of tobacco complete the picture. This is super crafted, pure but still very unspectacular. This rum is a mixer, but a mixer with star qualities. As a component in tiki drinks, it remains far in the background, where it belongs. It makes a super mojito, to which the light wood gives a great depth. The Old Cuban could become the signature drink, it combines perfectly with mint and champagne (or other brut sparkling wine). That's where it really takes off. If you're looking for a dry Spanish mixer that puts the distillate front and center, this is it. I'm a fan (neat: 70/cocktail:86): 78"
