Ron Botran Rare Blend Guatemalan Oak
Most enjoy its soft caramel-vanilla sweetness and woody profile. Critics find it thin, short and overpriced. Consensus: a pleasant, easygoing rum, but not exciting for the price.
Those who like gentle, sweet-leaning rums similar to Diplomatico-style profiles and want an easy, woody sipper without funk or high alcohol burn.

I had so awesome presentation of this rum, I have to rate higher than the taste deserves! The degustation was awesome and it count!
Plus rond que le 18ans Agréable en bouche, pas trop porte sur alcool, finale plus long que le 18 Verre vide bien boisé
Die weiche Nase verspricht viel Karamell, Vanille, Rosinen und Dattelnoten, sowie Trockenfrüchte und ganz entfernt Orange. Am Gaumen ist er relativ dünn mit wenig Körper, jedoch angenehmen Karamell-und Vanillenoten mit leichten Akzenten von Kaffee und schönen Holznoten. Die 40 % Vol. halten die Intensität etwas im Zaum, schaffen aber eine cremige Textur. Der kurze Abgang ist würzig, holzig und bietet Karamell, Vanille und leichte Kaffeenoten. Dieser Botran ist keine Geschmacksexplosion, aber ein guter Rum für zwischendurch.
A very woody rum. The oak flavors dominate the taste profile with some dried fruits and a bit of vanilla to support it. But with a pricetag of around 80 to 90€ too expensive for what you get imo.
