    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members love the smooth, cognac-cask influence here: sweet caramel, woody vanilla, and dried-fruit aromas lead to an easy, balanced sip with a pleasant, cognac-tinged finish. Often enjoyed neat; some even pair it with salty chocolate. A popular choice with 106 community reviews and strong buyer confidence. If a softly sweet, wood-driven profile appeals, this Panama column-still rum is one the community returns to.

    So smooth with a lovely cognac finish

    Not really me. Somewhat bitter and sweet.

    I vave it 9 because I had tasting with salt chocolate. The combination made it so much better. First sip a little and bite small piece of salty chocolate, after the chocolate disolves in mouth drink the rum. This takes the taste to another level!

    Pleasantly surprised by this Abuelo, it makes you want to try the different finishes in the range.
