„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.“

„Recht kurz und einseitig. Wirklich nur vanille und Karamell gepaart mit süße. Für mich persönlich zu wenig Komplexität“

„Sehr angenehm zu trinken. Nicht so süß und für den Preis schön vielschichtig.“

„Nez assez effacé, fade, bien plus agréable en bouche. Tous le contraire du 15 ans“

„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“

„Der 18-jährige Malecon Reserva Imperial war insgesamt in Ordnung, die Erwartungen an diesen Rum lagen persönlich jedoch höher. Die häufig prognostizierte Frucht hat wohl den Weg in meine Flasche nicht gefunden und landete vermutlich in einer anderen. Dennoch war auch der Bereich Holz, Röstaromen und Gewürze mal etwas anderes und insgesamt ganz nett. Wer jedoch überwiegend auf eher süße Rums zurückgreift, sollte sich eher nach einer Alternative umsehen.“

„Der Rum hat einen kräftigen Goldton. Ein ziemlich süßer und süffiger Geruch, Karamell, etwas Portwein. Im Geschmack etwas weniger süß, leicht bitter, etwas würziger. Der Abgang ist weich, etwas süßer als der Geschmack.“
