La Palma Distillers Constellation's Rum Polaris
Sipped neat, this one fights you: a decent nose of caramel, vanilla, raisin and burnt sugar promises more than the glass gives, because at 48% the alcohol tends to steamroll everything. Several tasters found it thin and "excessively diluted," with wood and a hot, short finish where flavor should linger. Some catch nut and coffee if they hunt for it; most just call it ordinary.

The look inside the bottle
How does La Palma Distillers Constellation's Rum Polaris taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Hot, thin, wood-heavy neat sipper Members mostly land at underwhelming — a promising caramel-and-raisin start, then the alcohol burn erases the finish. Nice enough nose, but thin and hot where it counts.

Review by Rumpalumpa
Unfortunately rather disappointing. It's quite hard to say anything noteworthy about this rum. Certainly barrel aging can be detected but hardly anything from the distillate itself. The somewhat higher alcohol content doesn't help either.
Review by Stefan Persson
It’s so bland that it’s really hard to detect the tastes at all and not even the rather high ABV shines through, but when trying hard it’s the sweetness and fruitiness that’s detected. Really nothing to write home about.
Review by Skyfly
Vanilla, roasted aromas and slightly fruity on the nose. On the palate, you can discover very detailed aromas of nuts, coffee, wood and vanilla. The finish reflects mainly wood and roasted aromas again.
Review by Matthias Freynik
Delicious. Good on the nose. Also nice in taste.
Review by kudzey
The aroma and taste eye extremely low intensity. This rum is excessively diluted and seems sweetened to me, at least a little. I'm general, wood dominates the profile and it offers no real complexity.
Review by Cédric Meyers
On the nose it's sweet, caramel, crème brûlée and on the palate it clearly goes towards wood.
Review by Godspeed
This is a frustrating rum. It has a quite good nose with very clearly identifiable notes of raisin, not bad at all. The very first taste is also good, nice and clear caramel, very good. Then the bad news, the strong alcohol burn completely erases any aftertaste and you are left feeling dropped off a really disappointing cliff after a promising start. This is a 30 year old by the solera system playbook (which is VERY different from a highly aged single barrel for instance) and it does have some good flavor potential, but the burn just torches any further development of flavor beyond the decent but far too quick first taste. A shame really. The high ABV was probably a mistake for this one.
Review by rum_sk
Sharp, spicy and nothing really special. It is quite ordinary rum. Less sweet and less prominent in taste. But ok. Pretty spicy in the taste.
Review by Robert Houba
Nijak extra výrazný. Kouřový nebo spíše pečený nádech, alkoholové + ovocno-dřevité… Slušné
Review by Anonymous
Quite alcoholic, woody and not so diverse.
Review by Necron
Impressively strong smell and taste. The alcohol overpowered almost all of the flavours. It is essentially sweet but with a spicy kick to it. Honestly a very odd sensation while drinking it and the overall experience lasts quite a bit.
Review by Niko
Not really any taste other than pure alcohol...
Review by Bob_
2ml sample didn't convince me. Nose is quite interesting at first, though the alcohol is noticeable. Unfortunately, it then overpowers everything in the taste. The finish reminds me a bit of mouthwash, but without the spicy note.
Review by Rado Vito
Caramel, fruity and earthy nose. The taste is strong and short with vanilla, spice and nuts flavors. Almost no tail. Well, even though this rum is not perfect, I love Tenerife and everything connected with it. I can imagine to drink this rum on Playa de la Tejita or on the top of Teide and that would definitely boost the rating. ;)
