“Orange with honey through and through. Smell is rather restrained, but the mouthfeel is more intense. If you get your hands on this rum in Spain (Canary Islands), you get a good rum at a reasonable price. In my opinion, the best rum of the Arehucas distillery.”

“This is a rum in the cheaper end of the spectrum but it still does pretty well. A sweet rum and maybe for many rumnerds out there too sweet. The balance of sweetness, spices and proof is pretty good. Slightly better than the 12 year old but also a tad sweeter. A good rum for beginners i think.”

“Ron Arehucas Añejo Reserva Especial shows an elegant mahogany color, a result of long storage in oak barrels of hundreds of years old rum cellar. This extraordinary spirit is stored for a full 18 years until it is ready to be enjoyed. 8,2:On the nose, there could be found full and intense aromas of fresh sugar cane, mild spices, caramel and vanilla weaven with toasted oak, volcanique, floral notes(Canary islands are volcanos) linger underneath.Coffee/cocoa , banana, tropical fruits burst out in the end. 8:On the palate it is mouth-filling and intense with strong spicy notes, slightly fruity with hints of wild behind it with notes of sugar cane, honey and some vanilla intertwined with orange peel and peaches and of course volcanique notes that burst out secondly .It is tasty and very balanced, soft and powerful at the same time. Oak is completed by caramel and a hint of smoke that lingers on. Exceptionally harmonious rum inspite of the great complexity of aromas. 8:The finish is long and sweet, syrupy like with some woodiness, vanilla, honey and sugar cane juice, banana completes the finish....”
