How does Pampero Selección taste?
Aggregated from 36 community reviews.
Basic caramel mixer for cola Solid budget mixer with soft caramel and light wood. Simple, inoffensive profile that works fine with cola, but lacks depth and typical rum character for sipping.
Those who want an easy, affordable caramel-led rum mainly for rum & cola or simple long drinks, without needing complexity or high strength.
Enthusiasts seeking complex, characterful sippers or anyone strictly avoiding added sugar in their rum.

Only good for mixing
Review by Jakob Deiner
Viele riechen und schmecken bei vielen Rums Karamell - für mich ist dies der erste und bisher einzige bei dem ich ebenfalls deutlich Karamell riechen und schmecken kann. ;-) Pur angenehm, aber auch eher "one-note" Karamell, setzt sich in Ginger Beer nicht besonders durch. In Cola setzt sich der Karamell-Geschmack ziemlich stark durch - nicht so mein Ding. Drinks: - Pur: 3/5 - Rum Cola: 2/5 - Rum Mule: 2/5

Expert review by The Fat Rum Pirate
Read full review →Overall I would say this rum is fairly sweet and light but with just a little bit of an edge which makes it that little bit more enjoyable. It's certainly a big step up from the standard Pampero Anejo. A rum which is just a little too thin and undemanding....
