How does this rum taste?
- Rich caramel and vanilla aroma
- Smooth for some users
- Bourbon influence appreciated
Ron Canuto XO is an Ecuadorian rum from the Canuto Distillery, distilled from molasses and aged for nine years. It offers an aromatic profile rich in caramel, brown sugar, and vanilla, with a bourbon influence. The palate reveals notes of vanilla and caramel, with a touch of barrel spice, presenting a balanced sweetness. While some view it as smooth and delightful, others find it somewhat rough, akin to whiskey. This rum is described as less sweet with a flatter and less complex profile compared to other XO rums, yet remains pleasantly enjoyable for rum enthusiasts seeking something less sweet and straightforward.

"starke Orangenschale im Abgang, ein frischer, überraschend unterhaltsamer Rum"
"Ik vond deze versie eerst nergens terug, tot ik via de Instagram van Canuto rum ontdekte dat deze binnenkort nog gereleased moet worden. 24 days of rum brengt dus een primeur met zich mee! De smaak doet me denken aan andere XO’s die ik al geproefd heb (vb, Mount Gay, Esclavo of Plantation), maar die schat ik alle drie toch wat hoger en verfijnder in dan deze. Het smaakprofiel in vergelijking met de anderen is wat meer afgevlakt en minder complex, maar tegelijkertijd ook minder zoet wat helemaal niet zo erg is. Aangenaam, maar niet uitzonderlijk."
"Dry, spicy, slightly floral. But a bit rough"
"Für mich ein schöner Geschmeidiger Rum."
