Licorera Cihuatán 12 Years

Cihuatán 12 Years offers sweetness, gentle chocolate, and tropical fruit, but several RumX members were left wanting more depth and a longer finish. One to try if you enjoy a soft, easygoing sipper.

Nicely sweet, gentle chocolate and vanilla, light easy sipper.

    How does this rum taste?

    • Nice and sweet
    • Schöner Einsteigerrum
    • très plaisant au nez

    RumX tasters peg this Salvadoran spirit as leaning sweet, with repeated nods to notes of vanilla, chocolate, and a noticeable dose of tropical fruit. The nose is "très exotique sur la sucrosité, très plaisant au nez" (Mc Pirate), with the palate proving especially gentle—sometimes too much so, for some. Overall, it comes across as approachable but on the lighter side, with reviewers describing the finish as quite short. Stefan Persson calls out its "aroma is very alcoholic" and notes of caramel and sweetness run throughout.

    "Can’t recommend this rum! It’s produced in a multi column still and I believe the average age of this Solera rum is quite few years. The aroma is very alcoholic. The flavors on the other hand is quite sweet with flavors of vanilla and caramel. The finish is very short."

    "Sehr schokoladiger eher süßer Rum aber nicht zu pappig. Schöner Einsteigerrum oder als sipper für den ersten Drink"

    "zachte volle smaak, bloemig, niet super bijzonder. Beetje zachter dan 8y."
