How does this rum taste?
Facundo Exquisito, crafted at Bacardi's Puerto Rico distillery, showcases a 24-year aging process. Distilled from molasses using a column still, this rum features rich aromas of vanilla, sherry, caramel, coffee, and brown sugar. Its flavor profile is dominated by smooth vanilla, sweet sherry, caramel, and toffee notes. While some users appreciate the complex blend of flavors and woody undertones, others find it overly sweet or lacking in depth. The rum's 40% ABV is noted as potentially lower than desired, which some enthusiasts suggest impacts its overall complexity. Ideal for those who enjoy a sweeter, silken sipping experience.

This one is slightly better than the Eximo and the first thing is that this one has g far more wood to it. I guess many wont like the woody notes. The nose is fruity with vanilla followed by coconut and caramel. A hint of sherry is there as well. The palate is balanced and sweet with fruit and vanilla. Caramel, molasses and sherry follows. Here the oak really hits you, seriously. The finish is also full of oak, sweet and fruity with spices. Looking at the price the Eximo is the better option considering price to quality.
Flavors of cinnamon, vanilla, nutmeg, bananas, toffee and raisins.
A sample brought on vacation to sunny Turkey. In the nose it has a sweetness, with spicy hints. In the notes it is equally sweet, with tastes of vanilla, caramel, cinnamon and dried fruit. I would like to have a bit more ABV %
I would have loved to taste this before the watering down. It’s really good, but way too weak. At around 50% ABV I would probably have given it around 80-85 points. - Three years since last tasting and I agree. Please give me more ABV and this would be quite good.
