    How does this rum taste?

    • Sophisticated vanilla aroma
    • Long, pleasing finish
    • Appealing to southern rum fans

    Exquisito, distilled at Oliver & Oliver in the Dominican Republic, is a limited-release rum renowned for its rich bouquet of raisin, vanilla, and caramel. Made from molasses in 1985, it captures the island's spirit with a complex interplay of sweet and dry notes, oak, and woody undertones. Users appreciate its long finish and pleasing balance, featuring a touch of smoke and chocolate. While admired for its well-rounded profile and sophisticated presentation, some users find it a bit sharp or imbalanced and critique its pricing. Nonetheless, it's a dessert rum that appeals to fans of mild, southern-style rums.

    "This is the oldest of the Exquisito blends. It has a lot of taste from the cask and that makes it a really good rum though it's a little bit out of balance. Not your typical Oliver &. Oliver in my mind."

    "Nice round rum and not as sweet and pasty as many others from the house. The complexity for the price range can also be seen. Absolute recommendation for all who like mild southern rum"

    "Penetrating taste of oak and bourbon vanilla and with an aftertaste that is long with a good balance between dryness and a touch of smoke and chocolate."
