How does this rum taste?
Presidente Marti 15 Años leans heavily into sweet notes, with caramel, vanilla, and tropical fruit consistently front and center. There's also a clear woody undercurrent—multiple RumX members mentioned it being 'etwas zu holzig' (a bit too woody) per @Thomas Krippgans—and the sweetness often splits opinion. According to @LukaŽiga: 'The attack on the palate is sweet, compensating for the dryness of the well-burnt nuts.' Some find the rum round and approachable, with hints of orange peel, honey, and mild spice, while others call out added sugar and a fairly short finish.

6:On the nose, the first impression we get are aromas of caramel and vanilla. The rum is also buttery and mellow, like popcorn. Nuts and molasses offer darker notes for a welcome balance. As with the early popcorn, the sweetness returns in the form of a well-roasted fairground praline. The wood comes in at just the right moment to tighten things up and keep the sweetness from going too far, though a few hints of vanilla escape from its veins. The wood is slightly smoky and toasty, with a scent of tobacco. Aeration reveals a less tender, more powdery heart. Dried nuts and cocoa are intense, though contained by a certain sweetness. The wood becomes dustier, too, and a surprising industrial edge, with a hint of engine grease, emerges in the manner of a Trinidad rum. This new phase paves the way for a fruitier side, with quince and a not too ripe peach. Vanilla is still present, but lighter and less round. 5,7:On the palate, the attack on the palate is sweet, compensating for the dryness of the well-burnt nuts. The salty caramel makes you salivate, the better to melt the vanilla. The harsher, more industrial aspect is still present in the mid-palate, for a rum with two facets. At times sweet and thick, at other times dry and light, the alcohol integration is pretty bad. 5,4:On the finish, quite short one, the pepper takes a more classic direction on a rather sweet, alcoholic, caramelized rum....

Sugar is really sweet, but pleasant.
Im Geschmack zuerst süßlich und mild, wird dann aber trockener und es setzt ein leichtes Prickeln von Schärfe, sowie von Gewürzen auf der Zunge ein.
