How does this rum taste?
The Reserva 6 Especial is a Venezuelan rum distilled from molasses at Destileria Carupano, offering a blend of vanilla, butterscotch, and pineapple aromas. Aged for six years, it's noted for its smooth caramel sweetness complemented by hints of spice and oak. Users appreciate its approachable profile, with themes like Werther’s Original toffee and hints of chocolate emerging on the palate. Despite its pleasant taste, some consumers noted its short finish and a potentially overpowering alcoholic note.

This is not recommended! The nose is fruity, bitter and sweet with an aroma of vanilla. At the palate and during the rather short finish it’s bitter, sweet, fruity and a little roasted with flavors of vanilla.
Surprisingly good clean, looking farward to test it in a cocktail
Lightly spiced rum. Has an incredibly sweet aroma but then leaves a short alcoholic taste in your mouth. The main issue lies with the taste (unless you prefer a bit of blandness in your rum). Overall it is an ok one but not something I would consider drinking it straight. Might fit very well with some mixers.
02-09.04.2022 This was crazy week, where some friends and I rented a nice summerhouse on Rømø. The plan was to go nuts for a whole week with different rums without going overboard. The final agreement came to 6 rums a day and then enjoy nice walks or ferry rides during the day. Day 2 Notes Medium dark in colour. Nose Light, sweet, light roasted wood, light candy, caramel, light anise, faint chocolate. Palate Sweet, light oily, light wood, light chocolate, faint caramel, light fruits, pineapple. Finish Short to medium, sweet, light wood, caramel, light chocolate, light pineapple. Extra note. Best enjoyed handwarm and I found it to be a really good dessert rum that can also be poured over icecream.
