    "Malecon is one of my favorite Latin styled rum and this 13yo batch 2 doesn’t disappoint me. Hard to say how it it differs from batch 1. Should have needed a bottle from batch 1 to compare. The nose as well as at the palate it’s fruity and spicy with aroma and flavor of vanilla."

    "Nez très doux, sur la vanille, le bois. Des agrumes aussi. En bouche, c'est très vif. Bois présent. Vanillé de nouveau. Très sucré et rond. Poivré en bouche mais pas agressif. Finale plutôt courte. Sympathique Ron avec un peu de watts. La rondeur du jus est balancée par son intensité. Pas mal. Longtemps que je n'avais pas remis le nez dans ce rhum. Première impression confirmée. De l'intensité. Un alcool vif. La rondeur d'un Ron. Rapport qualité-prix plutôt bon"

    "A great rum looking at the price. The ABV ensures a very good, balanced and well rounded rum. Short to medium finish. "

    "on the nose, the alcoholic spiciness covers a lot. trorzdem tobacco, dried fruit and roasted aromas are perceptible. on the palate it is then initially very sweet and oily, somewhat covering the alcohol. Tobacco caramel and some smoke taste aner good"
