    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members love this 18-year Panama sipper for its easygoing smoothness and value. Expect vanilla, caramel, and gentle oak on the nose, with mild sweetness, subtle spice, and a soft finish often enjoyed neat. Several note fruity hints and a faint smoky touch, while others find it straightforward or slightly thin. Popular on RumX with strong buyer confidence, it’s a relaxed, approachable choice the community often enjoys.

    Minimal besser wie der 15er aber haut mich jetzt auch nicht um. Auch hier wirkt das ganze für mich wieder leicht rauchig, malzig & leicht torfig, hier schon speckig. Außerdem etwas süßer wie der 15er, aber auch wieder eher dünn und verwässert wirkend.

    With a medium to long finish it still manages to surprise. Fruity with oak and a lightly smoky touch. Price to quality is very good.

    Quite short and one-sided. Really only vanilla and caramel paired with sweetness. Too little complexity for me personally

    Bin nicht enttäuscht worden. Malecon steht für runde Rums. nicht gesüßt, kernig eben. hervorragendes Preis Leistungsverhältnis. war meine 2te Flasche von Malecon. Nachtrag heute nochmal getastet, der Unterschied zum 25 jährigen ist doch größer. Der 25jährige ist komplexer, beide Top Rums
