    How does this rum taste?

    Lively spiced and orange notes
    Creamy sweetness, crowd-pleaser
    Great value for 14 years

    Orange peel and warm spice headline this 14-year Salvadoran rum, joined by creamy vanilla and hints of chocolate. On the palate, RumX tasters consistently note a sweet, dessert-like character balanced by gentle chili heat, a touch of roasted almond, and honey. The crowd appreciates its lively, seasonal profile—though some wish for more depth—making Cihuatán Sahumerio an inviting option for those who enjoy sweeter, spiced-forward rums. Worth a sip for fans of bold, sweet spice.

     very fiery, spicy, sweet, exciting complex rum and a worthy successor to the previous limited editions of Cihuatan! in the finish it gets really fiery and wicked again... Unusual but delicious! Still not my favorite...

     Another one from the Rum&Co Sample Set. At first I had to check the data, is that a spiced Rum? The vanilla note as well as the orange and some cinnamon, combined with a notable sweetness are indicators, but I am not convinced they are additives. However despite being sharp, warm and creamy, I am not impressed as I am missing some of the genuine Rum aromas. The finish reminds me of a dessert drink. I can see this being appealing to many people, but after some Hampden DOK, good Demarara and delicate Barbados this type of Rum will not exite me.

     Completely wild on the nose. Spicy, but not alcoholic, but towards chili. The typical Cihuatan chocolate notes are also there, mixed with cinnamon. Insane amount going on here and enormously independent character. Sweet in the mouth, then spicy to hot. Cinnamon/chili/chocolate also there again. Creamy honey sweetness, almonds, slightly smoky but always with fire. You have to stand on it, but if you do it is really good.

     Unfortunately, I don't like the taste at all. Soapy and artificial.
