    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members love the rich oak and gentle smoke in Abuelo XII Two Oaks. Vanilla and caramel lead the nose, with woody, roasted notes and mild sweetness on the palate. Reviewers call it smooth and round, with the two‑cask influence clearly present and a pleasant finish. Often enjoyed neat, with a rock, or even mixed. A popular Panama 12-year with 169 community reviews.

    Gran Ron. Muy fácil de tomar. Recomiendo que lo metan en el congelador y lo tomen frío o con una roca de hielo

    It tasted far too sweet to not have some type of additives.

    8,8:On the nose, the influence of American oak predominates. It does so beautifully, with soft wood, vanilla, blond tobacco, toasted coconut and a certain sweetness that enriches these aromas. Aeration gives the rum a slightly more conquering side, which then brings out the pepper and smoke. The tobacco is a little browner, and the cane molasses brandy shows a fine concentration, even if the roundness is still palpable. 8,7:On the palate, the rum is terribly tasty. Once again, it's the American oak that does most of the work, and we've really made the most of its qualities. With a light smoky attack, the aromas of vanilla, red fruits, coconut, oily wood and tobacco are truly thick and delicious. 8,7:The finish maintains this greediness with a certain sweet roundness...

    Beim ersten Schluck direkt Panama am Gaumen, leichte süße, Vanille, Karamell, Kakao, Holz und ein leichter Kaffee. Easy Sipper, der nicht überfordert. Gerade für Anfänger und leicht Fortgeschrittene ein guter Tropfen.
