    How does this rum taste?

    The 21 Years - Reserva Imperial rum from Malecon distillery in Panama is a well-aged rum with a rich profile. Distilled from molasses using a column still and matured for 21 years, it offers a smooth 40% ABV experience. Users often highlight its caramel, almond, and fruity notes both on the nose and palate. A touch of wood complements its sweetness while adding complexity. Despite its robust flavors, some find it slightly more aggressive than expected for its ABV, yet praise its potential and beginner-friendly attributes. It’s often compared to younger variants, where its price is noted to be relatively high, reflecting its premium aging process.

    Schöner rum. Ein klein wenig zu süß und und zu schwach. Aber tolle Aromen die viel Potential haben. Schöner Einsteiger

    Au nez très bien, mais je ne l’achèterais pas

    A medium sweet rum with a light touch of wood. The fruits, spices and caramel put a nice backbone into this rum. Unfortunately the price, when compared to the 15 year old, is a bit steep.

    Lepsi jak 18y, neni tak sladky.
