A.F.D. Patridom Gran Reserva Overproof
Sweet-tooth drinkers who want a soft, high-strength sipper are the crowd here. Despite the 57.5% ABV, it drinks smooth and sugary — vanilla, caramel, coffee and a banana note, with one taster catching orange chocolate. Nearly everyone lands on the same verdict: the sugar covers up the flavor. The nose can turn sharp and acetone-like before the sweetness takes over.
The community says- Smooth for the ABV
- Caramel-vanilla-coffee notes
- But: Very sweet

How does A.F.D. Patridom Gran Reserva Overproof taste?
Aggregated from 25 community reviews.
Sweet, smooth overproof that drinks its strength down Most agree it's surprisingly smooth for almost 58%, but the heavy sweetness divides people — several say sugar buries the flavor and unbalances it. Works better mixed.

Review by Skyfly
Pleasant on the nose, with notes of vanilla, wood, caramel, and coffee. On the palate it is nicely oily and overall tasty, but for me clearly too sweet. The high ABV can't compensate for that.
Review by Rumpalumpa
Gentle on the nose, strongly reminiscent of Pampero Aniversario, even though that one is from Venezuela. The taste hints at a lot but is covered by a lot of sugar. Because of that, it's also very gentle for almost 60%.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Far better balance and ABV integration than the XO cask but still sweet on the palate. I'd say this is this far the best of the new ones after changing the name of the release.
Review by Godspeed
The nose is straight up disagreeable with sharp acetone. The taste gives a surprisingly well-rounded flavor of cola and caramel, not bad at all for 57%. I would use this as a cocktail rum considering the low price tag.
Review by Necron
Very strong rum that should not be taken neat. Due to the strong alcoholic smell I could not identify anything specific aside from a slightly sweet smell. The taste was also overpowering but at the same time the sweetness came out vividly. Too bad I could not identify anything specific but this would be a good rum for mixers. The sweetness coupled with other syrups would make a blissfull cocktail!
Review by Rado Vito
Guys, guys be aware of this rum! It has 58%, but it doesn't seems to have them, so don´t blame me after you get totally drunk, that I didn´t warn you! And now, let´s be serious. Nose is strong, alcoholic and pleasantly sweet. During the whole time this rum is sweet and smooth, it could go like this - salty caramel, caramel, honey - one shot, two shots.....Mordor.
Review by Robert Houba
Sweeter aroma, sharp taste onset, like orange chocolate, quite fruity. You can feel more alcohol... interesting.
Review by Stefan Persson
In nose it’s quite pleasant, but in mouth, at palate and during the medium long finish it then becomes supersweet which destroy this rum completely for me. The rather high ABV of 57,5% can’t balance the sweetness at all. Another interesting thing about this rum, is that it’s possible to find a rum with exactly the same label with the name Ron Esclavo instead of Patridom.
