„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“

„Sehr fein destilliert mit 40prozent natürlich etwas dünn aber da ich ihn gerade parallel im Mojito habe der Community sei Dank sieht man gleich wo dieser Rum glänzt. Er macht das was er dort tun soll Aromen liefern ohne zu dominieren. Toller Mixer 👍 Pur bleibt für mich aktuell der Sherry cask der Favorit.“

„Really enjoy this and all the Don Q rums I’ve tried (but especially this). Been tasting them head to head with their price-comparable Bacardi offerings and Don Q wins every time for me. Will be my goto brand for Puerto Rican style for the foreseeable future.“
