Licorera Cihuatán 12 Years
Most enjoy its sweet, chocolatey, easy-drinking profile. Critics find it thin, very light, with a short, sugary finish and noticeable alcohol. Consensus: simple, inoffensive beginner rum, not for seekers of depth.
Those who like smooth, sweet, low-ABV rums with vanilla and chocolate, and beginners wanting a gentle, unchallenging first sipper or something easy to mix.

Nice and sweet. Not much character beyond that.
Sehr schokoladiger eher süßer Rum aber nicht zu pappig. Schöner Einsteigerrum oder als sipper für den ersten Drink
Belle couleur claire et nez très exotique sur la sucrosité, très plaisant au nez. Bouche extrêmement légère, que le fruit jaune, touches exotiques. Finale courte sur le sucre
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.
