The good thing about this rum is that it has not been excessively sugared, like many other rums from this category. However, it is not particularly praiseworthy at first sight because of the alcoholic note, but if you give it a little time, you get a wonderfully toasty and woody nose. In addition, caramel and some fruit. In the mouth then even the dark flavors dominate, which makes this rum something special.

This is a rum that can be rated incorrectly because it is unique in its own way. Initially I rated this rum very low until I found out that it needs to rest for a long while and not only rest standing still. You need to hand warm it and around 25 degrees C. the rum really opens up. The sherry cask and oak is very obvious from nose to finish. The rum was first released in 2011 and its a rum in the cheap end. Price to quality is very good.

A Hispanic style rum that offers everything in the region and in this style. The nose is open with aromas of brown sugar and caramel, coffee, wood and chocolate. On the palate, there is a thick texture, an almost honeyed side, some spices and dried fruits. The sweetness predominates in an obvious way. In the finish, a slight smoky side stands out from the rest, relatively flat and ephemeral.A rum less sweet than usual, therefore more authentic but which clearly lacks depth to stand out. It will undoubtedly pass better in digestive with a cigar.

Today i went to a free spirits festival and this was one of the rums they had to try. This one is very sweet with hints of toffee and spices. Very smooth tho. But it costed 72€ over there, too much imo. At around 50€ it would be ok.

A bit drier than Santa Teresa but fairly similar. Light sweet caramel nose, a bit flatter in the mouth but nice slightly dry finish. Good balance of sweet notes, spice and leather. Solid but not exceptional

I was a bit skeptical about buying this rum, glad that I did. Excellent Spanish-style rum. The Sherry cask enhances this spirit and adds some sweet notes to the rum that otherwise might be too woody and plain. My favorite Spanish-style rum so far.

Nice dry rum, very drinkable and mild. Lot of vanilla and spices in the nose. Softly bittering in the end

This has bias on a review as was sipped on the day of engagement in Dominican Republic so maybe tasted through happy sunglasses. I had a sample of this on the rocks . sultanas, dates and honey, with a touch of gentle smoke. Buttery and sweet with butterscotch, .

Durchaus lecker, jedoch gibt es bessere Alternativen Nach Öffnung recht sprittig/scharf. Bewertung war zu Beginn recht schlecht, wenn die Flasche jedoch etwas länger offen ist und der Rum etwas atmen konnte, durchaus lecker und mild. Glänzt aber weder in Aroma, Süße oder besonderen Noten.
