    Produced at the Secrete distillery in Cuba and aged for 9 years, this Compagnie des Indes rum marks a robust addition to limited-edition releases.

Tasting notes reveal a fragrant profile dominated by alcoholic and caramel aromas, with hints of green apple and pear. The taste is notably roasted, with caramel, wood, and fruity notes contributing to its complexity.

    "A year ago awarded 79 points, now, with more experience and in direct comparison with a Cuban from Bristol (evaluation follows), I must unfortunately devalue considerably. This rum is unfortunately an uninspired, unbalanced something, artificially sweet and tangy at the same time, unpleasantly astringent, which is simply out of place here. And I'm very much afraid that's not because I'm in the mood for the day. I wonder what distillery this should have come from. Hard to imagine that this rum could come from the Paraíso. Sorry, not drunk out."

    "an der Nase erst etwas stechend und kräftig nach Feuerwerk, Schießpulver, Schwefel, Tabak und dazu Mirabelle, Birne und grüner Apfel. erlebt man selten... im Geschmack dann quasi Werthers echte mit Bums! Dunkle Schokoladen-Karamellbonbons mit Tabak, viel Würze und etwas Aprikose und Erdnussbutter. insgesamt ein überraschend süffiger Cubaner und das auch noch in Fassstärke. das gibt's eher selten aus Cuba, leider! der bleibt definitiv in meiner Hausbar erhalten 🤤🇨🇺 kommt übrigens fantastisch im old fashioned mit Honig und Zitronenzeste!🍯🍋"

    "01.06.2019 Had a nice meet up at this Nordic Rum Fest where we brought some of our own bottles. Notes. Light in colour. Needs to rest for a good while. Nose: light wood, fruity, raisin, caramel, sweet. Palate: naturally sweet, wood, caramel, tobacco, spicy, fruity. Finish: long and warm, wood, light smoke, tobacco, dried fruit."
