Licorera Cihuatán Cinabrio Ron 12 Años

Lots of sweet orange, caramel, and mild spice, but some find it a bit thin or alcohol-forward. One to try if you dig citrus notes and easygoing sippers.

Easy-drinking with sweet orange and caramel notes throughout.

    How does this rum taste?

    • Orange, dunkle Holznoten und schwere Süße
    • Good rum, it’s better than the 8 year version
    • originální a svěží mix pomeranče a mandarinky

    Cinabrio Ron 12 Años leans hard into orange, caramel, and sweet vanilla, with the fruitiness sometimes drifting toward tropical notes and a hint of wood. Reviewers often mention how orange is both "sehr ölig und zestig" (Schnapsschuesse) and an "originální a svěží mix pomeranče a mandarinky" (Martin Ekrt). The profile tends to split rum fans: some highlight its "schöne natürliche Orangennoten" (Gregor) while others note it can feel "bisschen flach für 12 Jahre" (Thomas Lukas). The sweetness is ever-present, sometimes edging into artificial or candy territory.

    "very nice play of orange peel, tangerine & toffee, clearly better than the old 12 cihuatan. apparently not only the design but also the recipe has been improved again here.👌🏽 overall, however, it is a bit woody and one-dimensional but nicely orangey. I find the indigo better in terms of plv."

    "A wonderful discovery, with a surprising hint of grenadine. Regouté avec le rhum club lille ce soir, c'est très/trop léger vanille et avec une finale courte mais les fruits sont sympa. An ultra beginner's rum."

    "My first Cihuatán, to be honest my impressions are pretty mixed. A lot of citruses on notes. On palate the sweetness is quite significant and caramel and cinnamon tones. Finish is rather short with citruses. Anyway an interesting tasting."
