    How does this rum taste?

    The "Panama (Bottled for Premium Spirits)" rum, bottled by Compagnie des Indes, is a 13-year-old limited edition Panamanian spirit distilled from molasses in a column still. Brimming with robust alcoholic, spicy, and chocolate notes, it embodies a classic, albeit slightly challenging, profile. The rum's aroma presents a metallic hint alongside vanilla and milk chocolate nuances, while its taste follows with woody and licorice undertones. User reviews highlight its dominant alcoholic and spicy elements, with some finding the high ABV overpowering. While it features intriguing chocolatey dimensions, the integration of flavors might seem unbalanced to some, making it a bold yet polarizing choice for aficionados.

    Brussels Rhum Festival 15/03/2025 Lacks nose. Maybe it needs time to open up. Very basic rum nothing special. Something spicy in finish?

    Alcool très présent mais pas un mauvais rhum

    Guter, typischer Panama-Rum mit vordergründig Schokoladen-Noten.

    15/03/25: tasted @ Brussels Rhum Festival. Panama can be way more interesting than this. This had a rather average flavour profile, but not bad. I appreciate the higher ABV, but the alcohol could have been better integrated.
