Ron Colón Salvadoreño RumRye
Opinions land all over the place on this rum-and-rye blend. Some find it barely reads as rum anymore, others enjoy the honey, banana and orange-peel sweetness with a warm, sharp rye-and-oak backbone. One taster pegged it as a cross between Panama and Worthy Park with virgin-oak wood spice, and thought it could pull whiskey drinkers into rum. Fun, but not everyone's convinced.
The community says- Honey and banana
- Warm rye spice
- But: Rye can dominate

How does Ron Colón Salvadoreño RumRye taste?
Aggregated from 28 community reviews.
Sweet rum-rye blend that splits opinion A polarizing rum-whiskey hybrid. Some like the sweet, spicy, honeyed mix; others say the rye takes over and it stops tasting like rum. Interesting more than beloved.

Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
Very classic malaga-rum raisins in the nose. Sweet. Honey and vanilla. Some rye influence but not much. A bit like a mix between Panama and Worthy Park. In the taste the virgin oak comes through. Indeed rye/bourbon. Wood spices. Banana. Warm and sharp. Not a bad mix though. The balance is alright. I get that people find the rye part too dominant in taste, but the rum (especially in the nose) is still very present. This might be a convincing dram to lure the whisk(e)y drinkers into the rumworld.
Review by TheJackDrop
I'm not going to lie, I must have been tired on this tasting, but my memory of it isn't bad. With a lot of sweetness, a bit of honey perhaps, and nuts above all. We've seen worse!
Review by Jindrich Strobl
A mix of rum and whiskey. Interesting but somehow not that impressive.
