Centenario Fundación 20 Años Reserva Especial

"I think this is a very under rated rum. It's in the cheaper end yet its complexity is very convincing. A wonderful sweet, fruity and spice nose going into a complex well balanced heavy palate. The finish is long, a bit sweet and has a nice peppery sting to it. Price to quality is very good. "

"Mwah mwah mwah, We're on a RON, and it's really not my favorite thing. It's too round, too vanilla, too buttery, there's no fruit or pep, it gets boring fast. It's well made, but not for me. On a positive note though: it leaves an impressive scent in the glass when empty, which is cool."

"My first Centenario tasting. Even though I’m more into English rums, I found this Costa Rican fellow very tasty. Slight woody note with fruit tints well very pleasant and rounded. I can definitely recommend for daily sipping."

"If you fancy something sweet, this one is great. Not much on the nose at first, then roasted aromas and candied fruit, with a hint of cherries. Very sweet on the palate, spicy and roasted again. Rather short finish."

"Nose 4 Taste 4 Total 4"

"Good aroma intensity for this style. Notes typical for evaporated came juice dominate, with some aging influence. The bite is unpleasant, sourdough it tried to be masked by sugar. Sweet and syrupy texture. Not my style at all."

"Smell is initially rather thin, there is not so much to discover. Longer in the glass but then comes caramel, roasted aromas, some chocolate and fruit. In the mouth very velvety, sweet with lots of honey or caramel. The Centenario 30y has >40g/L, the 20y seems to be against it not quite as sweet or it is simply more tangy."

"Round, mild, not too over-sweet rum from Costa Rica. You can definitely do it!"

"Tastes as you would expect from a South American: sweet and subtly fruity, the spices are not exaggerated and the finish is mild."

"A classic grand ron, perhaps a little too sweet."

"One of the few sweet rums in my collection that is always on the table when things need to be uncomplicated and the consumers are still beginners. It's also the best of the centenario range because it has rough edges as well as sweetness. It also has a slight spiciness. Super part !"

"Caramel and woody aroma on the nose On the palate, caramel and sugar sweetness, perhaps a little too much. The finish is a combination of caramel and a hint of vanilla."

"Sehr angenehmer Rum. Ich würde aber wahrscheinlich noch paar Euro mehr ausgeben und mir den 30 jährigen kaufen. Noch ausgewogener und vielschichtiger sowie coolere Flasche :)"

"Echt leckerer Süßrum, der sich trotzdem anders als andere Süßrums verhält. Die Süße kommt sowohl in der Nase als auch im Mund zuerst und begleitet den Geschmack eher, als diesen zu überdecken. Leckere Frucht und feine kleine würzige Aromen überwiegen. Für mich einer der besten Einsteiger und für mich der Centenario mit der besten Preis-Leistung."

"Intéressant, nez et bouche agréables"
