Oliver & Oliver Ron Esclavo XO 23 Años
Most enjoy its smooth, dessert-like caramel-vanilla profile. Critics find it too sweet, thin and standard for the price. Overall seen as a pleasant but very sugary entry-level Spanish-style rum.
Those who prefer smooth, very sweet sippers with caramel, vanilla and honey notes, especially newcomers or fans of Don Papa-style Spanish rums looking for an easy, crowd-pleasing glass.

How does this rum taste?
Sweet, smooth starter for sugar-loving palates
If you enjoy soft, sugary rums like Don Papa, this will feel familiar: sweet caramel-vanilla and easy drinking. If you’ve moved toward drier, more complex rums, it may seem flat and too sweet.
Anyone avoiding added sugar or seeking dry, complex, high-ester or agricole-style rums. Also not ideal for drinkers who dislike liqueur-level sweetness or demand strong complexity for the price.

Leckerer Dom Rep Rum, allerdings etwas zu süß. Absolute Standardaromen, die man von vielen anderen spanischen Rums her kennt. Leider etwas dünn, als Anfängerrum geht es noch klar, aber so günstig ist dieser Rum dann auch nicht. Fazit: gibt günstigere und bessere Rums dieses Stils.
Fruité et épicé reste en bouche un régal
Belle découverte dans le style
Für mein Geschmack zu süss.
