Licores Veracruz Mocambo 20 Years Edición de Arte
Cigar smokers and sherry-cask fans get the most from this Mexican column-still rum. Expect dark chocolate, raisins, dried fruit and a smoky, charred-oak edge, with plenty of sherry-like wine notes. At 40% it drinks soft, and opinions split: some call it a rich evening sipper, others find it thin, watery, and too dominated by wood.
The community says- Dark chocolate
- Sherry-cask spice
- Keep in mind: Thin for 40%

Chocolate-and-sherry sipper, a touch thin Middling but pleasant. Fans get chocolate, raisins and sherry-cask spice that suits a cigar; critics find it thin for the ABV, over-woody, and too sweet or bitter on the finish.

It's a very good rum but I find it rather complex. A nice smell of tropical fruits and chocolate that carries through in the taste. I especially like this rum from Mexico. Definitely to be enjoyed on its own! Thanks for this discovery. A bottle you absolutely have to have in your collection, for sure!

#6362 06/08.02.2026 My first visit to The Village in Nuremberg and it was a very pleasant surprise. I will definitely attend again as there is more than enough rum going around. This is also a sweet rum with some nice fruits and leather, smoke and some chocolate. There is also a light smoky note on this one.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Very solid rum with a cigar, strong tobacco, sherry and charred barrel notes and very drinkable, but could be a little drier. Nevertheless, one of the best representatives when it comes to long aged Mexican rums. I definitely like it better than the Villa Rica.
Review by Johannes
Quite spicy, lots of sherry and relatively thin.
Review by Steffmaus🇩🇰
Time to finish up 1423's "24 days of Christmas". A mexican rum at day 22, which has been aged for 20 years, and it gives it a little depth. The nose gave me hints of wood and hints of molasses. In the notes it gave off notes of dried fruits, and a lingering wood finish
Review by Timo Groeger
Delicious, really good for an average rum. For the fact that the Advent calendar was so cheap, I can really taste the dark chocolate. Otherwise you can't say anything against this rum. Recommended.
Review by Lutz Lungershausen
24 Days of Rum, Blue Edition, Day 22 The 20 years in the barrel reveal their aromas as soon as they are poured. Heavy, spicy, sweet, dried fruit, raisin, coffee, dark chocolate wood, vanilla ... the full program in the nose and on the palate. The finish is also pleasantly rich and even a little fruity. A lovely after-work sipper.
Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
Almost pure black in color (e150 anyone?). Sour cherry. French oak. In taste lots of wood bitters. Very woody. Dry. Too light in alcohol. I wish this had more abv. Could have been something. Not bad though.
Review by epicsune 🇸🇪
Sample no.22 of the 24 days of rum calendar 2023. Nose has a sweet and smoky wood kind of tone. Dries fruits and wine/sherry from the barrels. Palate has the same wine notes that takes over a little bit too much. Would have liked a bit more of the fruits and spices.
Review by Gregor
For me one of the best Mexican I have ever drunk
Review by rum_sk
Honestly this one is very weird. 👃 is something I cannot honestly describe it seems very synthetic, sour. 👅 is better, interesting with moderate spiciness with a lot of woody and burnt aromas with charted, burnt taste and peaty aromas prevailing on the short finish. In the end I am not a fan of this one but it is not entirely bad.
Review by Martin Ekrt
The aroma is very delicate, mainly dried fruit, dates, raisins with a bit of nuts. Purely just a dense sugary body. In the finish again dried fruit, cask and a bit of nuts. Too sweet and overall unremarkable for my taste.
Review by Elwin
Brown sugar, wood, raisins and chocolate on the nose. Tastes sweet. Vanilla and old wood. Raisins and dried fruit. A little smoky. Mildly bitter finish
Review by Michael Janek
13.10.2024 Praha Zvěřinova Smells of caramel, maybe even salted caramel, chocolate Beautiful dark color Flavor-wise not very expressive, quite strongly burning at 40%
Review by Irbis
Not bad in total. I think it is slightly strong but really it worth to taste.
Review by Arjan91
Lacks some depth
Review by Pavel Ungr, RumRock
20 years of aging. With a 7.2 out of 10, it's a good rum, though not exceptional.
Review by Andreas Renöfält
Blind tasted. Taste of wood and nothing else. Bitter and very short finnish.
Review by Nikola Kučerová
My cherry.... Chocolate pralines
Review by Dirk E.
Had to try it, didn't know any from Mexico yet. But it's not my thing. I found it very burning.

Now, here is a rum that i understand. There is a nice Sherry and Spice thing going on. And eenthough i find it very watered down and thin on the palate. I can understand that soething like that probably goes nicely alongside a cigar.
