Vanilla, caramel and woody notes lead, with a touch of dark chocolate. Often recommended for mixing and valued for price, though some mention sweetness and heat.

    A little Abuelo tasting. Somehow I like this rum. A nice vanilla and caramel note here too. Slightly sweet, but completely ok. Not quite as good as the previous two, but still better than the classic average rum.

    An really smooth one, and that for that price. Tones of vanille and karamel. I would buy this one again!

    I like the fruity nose a little better than the complex but average palate. More individual aromas develop in the finish. Nothing disturbs here, simple and delicious.

    Not a great rum. Lots of heat and not much besides vanilla.
