    How does this rum taste?

    • Schokolade, Sherry. Gefällt mir gut!
    • Allerlei Röstaromen und süße Komponenten
    • Unglaublich zugänglich

    Cihuatán Alux Aged Rum leans heavily into caramel and chocolate, with roasted nuts, cocoa, and a gentle woody backdrop setting the scene. Across the board, folks talk sweet: "Sweet taste, does not have strong kick, medium finish" (Dávid Kaya) and "Vanille, Schokolade, Sherry. Gefällt mir gut!" (Johannes). Texture and finish spark debate—"A bit sharp for being only 43%, the alcohol does not integrate very well" (Peter Sjoroos)—but most agree the overall experience is approachable, if sweetened and somewhat restrained.

    "Pleasant nose, mouthfeel and finish. All kinds of roasted aromas and sweet components. Bitterness and cocoa are present. Spices such as vanilla and cinnamon are also present. I think the price is also okay. I like it!"

    "Sweetened like hell, not like this is particularly unpleasant. Bit take a less than ok rum and fill it up with sugar. It isn't exactly an art form. This is rather non interesting and again I still don't get the appeal."

    "Extremely restrained nose. In the taste then a lot of cocoa butter but still quite tame in terms of power."

    "Dieser Rum ist auch ganz in Ordnung. Eher etwas süßlich, schmeckt und riecht in Richtung Schokolade und Karamell. Für mich ist aber der Alkohol nicht richtig eingebunden, den hat man nach dem Genuß noch zu lange im Mund."
