Santiago de Cuba Ron Añejo 8 Años

"Overall an quite OK rum from Cuba Ron S.A., that’s aged for 8 years in old oak casks and bottled without any additives. The nose is fruity with aromas of apples, pears and Armagnac. At the palate and during the medium long finish it’s fruity and nutty with flavors of apples, caramel, some licorice and bitter almonds. The latter flavor gets even more intense during the finish."

"Almost the nightcap of the evening, another CubaLibre mixed with DomM from this rum. At least I think so. It tasted much better than the Cubans from Rum Artesanal. It's nice, but nothing special either. It's not really convincing neat either."

"Nice fruity Cuban..."

"Without endulging in a large blind tasting: this one feels a bit more intense flavorwise than some other Vuban expressions of similar age. A bit more bourbon forwards with vanilla and burnt caramel. Some fruits and honey as well. Good value for money."

"All my Tastings and Scores are purely based on “Rums under £50”. I rarely look at Rums over £50 for my YouTube."

"A more robust nose than their blanc. Spiced orange, honey and oak lead the way with dark coffee just behind. The taste follows the nose. Lots of cask influence; caramel, vanilla and honey. The finish is short. Reminds me of creme caramel. A little light for me but not bad. Sweet and easily drunk."

"Very good fruity rum"

"Bitter orange aftertaste not a big fan, very good value if you like orange"

"Subtle tastes of caramel, wood, hints spice Medium finish with a rummy kick"

"Great rum for £20"

"Nosing Orange , cloves , tobacco , Tasting Apple, honey , oak , tobacco , pepper"

"Jen mírně nadprůměrný kubánský rum. Rumy z Kuby me ničím moc nepřitahují a tento není výjimkou. Ve vuni náznaky citrusů dřeva a medu. V chuti dřevitá trpkost a jemná nasladlost. Pro mne nijak zajimavy kousek bohužel"

"Spiriti, at first taste, bit flat in the taste after first minutes. Gets better by waiting"

"A good all rounder and between 20 25 pounds a bottle it great value highly recommend"

"It’s actually a really nice rum if you like woody rum this is for you, you get the wood all the way thought from the nosing to the finish, a pleasant orangey taste a lot of caramel and honey on the nose a nice amount of warm fruit, oaky wood and a twinge of spice also on the nose. The taste is mostly wood, caramel, coffee, chocolate and when your mouth has adjusted to the taste you get a really nice spice on the sides of your tongue. Really recommend, brilliant price of only £21 in Sainsbury’s and for that much taste is amazing."
