How does this rum taste?

  • Rich woody flavor
  • Complex spice profile
  • Ideal for sipping

Cane Island's 12-year-old Nicaragua Rum, distilled from molasses using a column still, offers a well-rounded taste profile with an ABV of 43%. This Nicaraguan rum boasts woody, spicy, and fruity notes, complemented by subtler hints of vanilla and caramelized sweetness. Tasting reveals a robust combination of woody and tobacco flavors with spicy and fruity undertones. It is likened to other Spanish-style rums and praised for its balance and depth, though some find it a bit sharp or fiery. It has been appreciated as a daily sipper with a medium finish, but its boldness might not appeal to everyone. Rum enthusiasts seeking a rich, oak-influenced experience often enjoy this as a sipping rum rather than a mix.

"Really impressively delicious, complex Nicaragua rum. Nice daily sipper. I like it surprisingly well. Especially this combination of caramelized coconut, tangerine and dark chocolate with vanilla and light tannins is really fun!"

"31.07.2021 A nice tasting held by a bygone spirits shop. Notes Medium to dark in colour. Nose Round, wood, fruity, light varnish, light roasted, coconut. Palate Light, complex, wood, roasted, orange, coconut, raisin, faint chocolate, light mint. Finish Medium long, fresh, wood, tannins, orange, faint nougat. Extra note. Needs to rest for a good while to release all of its flavours."

"Have been lacking behind with the 1423 calendar from 2023, but here we go! In the nose it has a sweetness and oak scent, and in the notes I got vanilla, tobacco and oak. Lingering and medium aftertaste"

"Wow, ein sehr erwachsener Rum. Kraftvolle, intensiv fruchtige Nase mit leider schnell verfliegenden Ester- und Lösemitteleindrücken. Am Gaumen reich und kräftig mit allem, was 12 Jahre Fassreifung mitbringen. Entwickelt sich auch noch mal im Abgang von kurz bis mittel. Sehr solider Sonntags-Sipper, zu schade zum Mixen. Ich freue mich, den probiert zu haben – gerne wieder."
