„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!“

„Top Rum, den Aufpreis jedoch eher nicht wert. Sehr ähnlich zum Centenario 20, jedoch etwas kräftiger und schärfer, dennoch noch sehr sehr mild. Wem das gefällt wird ihn höher einstufen, meiner Meinung nach aber nicht besser wie der 20er.“
