"This is a medium priced rum and they did pretty well. A very flavourful rum with lots of wooden notes and fruit. Not too sweet, but nicely balanced and medium complexity. Price to quality is very good. "

"Now also the 25y times in the glass! Foreground honey / caramel, vanilla and roasted coffee! In addition, banana, raisin and coconut resonates from time to time. In the mouth moderately sweet and mild, continuing the nose. Chocolate and coffee are found more in the finish, making for a delicious and round experience. I don't remember the 30y being this good, which is also significantly sweeter!"

"Seit 1,5 Jahren dümpelt ein 2. Sample vom Centenario 25 in meinem Keller herum. Jetzt im Urlaub "traue" ich mich nochmal heran und muss sagen, dass ich sogar noch enttäuschten bin als beim ersten Mal. In der Nase sehr flach, aber am Gaumen dann mineralische Noten, wie zum Beispiel Salzlake und nach ca. 5 Sekunden im Mund wird er künstlich, wirkt fast parfumiert. Im Nachklang etwas Kaffee, aber nichts wirklich Interessantes, was mich irgendwie fesseln könnte. Für mich eine Enttäuschung und eine wohlwollende Bewertung als Mittelmäßig."
