Don Q Añejo XO
Most enjoy the gentle caramel-vanilla and easy sipping. Critics find it thin, a bit metallic and overpriced. Consensus: a pleasant, unsweetened, wood-driven rum, but not very complex for the money.
Those building their palate who want a light, unsweetened, Spanish-style rum with caramel, vanilla and oak that works both neat and in simple cocktails.

This unsweetened rum from Don Q is both round and complex with flavors of caramel and vanilla - a successful flavorful solera rum in my opinion 👍
Oak wood, significantly better than don q 7y
Auto-translatedIch hatte in der Nase anfangs eine unangenehme Fehlnote, metallisch, Lösemittel, dann später Holz, Vanille, Karamell, bissel Alkohol; Zunge überraschend wenig komplex, flach, leichte Alkoholschärfe, schlechtes PLV
Just a nice flavor. Sweet, oaky, and down chocolate. A bit more burn than o would have hoped, but pleasant straight or mixed.
