Tanduay Double Rum - La Caña de Azúcar
Someone stepping into aged rum without wanting anything heavy will get on well with this Filipino bottle. The nose leads with bitter orange and burnt sugar; the palate is sweet and syrupy with vanilla, marzipan and mild oak. A few tasters call it a "really nice sipper for beginners," but most agree there's not a lot of depth once the sweetness settles in.
The community says- Bitter orange nose
- Easy for beginners
- Keep in mind: Simple, little depth

How does Tanduay Double Rum - La Caña de Azúcar taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Sweet, orangey, easy Filipino sipper Pleasant, sweet and easy, with bitter orange and burnt sugar out front. Most find it decent but simple, and a couple would rather use it as a mixer.

I might be the audience for this rum since I totally appreciate these Southeast Asian rums. But this rum is absolutely top-notch. Incredibly pleasant in taste, fruit in every note, in the nose, on the palate, and in the finish. The alcohol can sometimes hit you hard, but the flavor lasts so long. Just great for relaxing and sipping from the glass. Also tastes absolutely excellent with good fruit juice, but it's almost too good for that. But it just feels so good that way too. Totally recommend if you like this kind of fruity rum.

On The Rocks: On the nose it initially smells like nail polish but it gives way to a mild/moderate fruit, spice and woody blend more like you would expect from a rum. Taste reveals a stronger sweetness with spice and wood notes with some underlying fruit. There is an alcohol presence that is noticeable. Finish is medium with the sweetness giving way to a slightly bitter treacle taste that lingers. Mixed Pepsi Zero: On the nose Pepsi Zero. Taste is very sweet with hints of dusty old warehouse. Finish is short with the sweetness going a little bitter. There is a delayed warmth in the chest in the finish.
Review by Timo Groeger
Yes, it's all right so far. The nose and palate are dominated by burnt sugar. It also comes across as very spicy. You can also detect notes of vanilla and caramel. There are worse things.

Probably one of the only solid
Review by Philip M. 🇧🇪
This bottle was a housewarming gift from my nephew. I have a hard time enjoying this neat. It's a sweet style of rum of which I'm not a big fan. It has a pretty dominant sweet almond/frangipane note on the palate. Mixing it with pineapple juice is OK though.
Review by Decky Hicks Doughty
A floral nose. Reminds me of stepping into a Lush shop. One with a cafe too, hints of coffee beans and bitter orange. Less floral on the palate. On the sweet side. Classic vanilla and oak notes, dark treacle. With sour fruit peel and orange juice. The finish is medium in length. A prickle of heat. Some oak but the sweetness maintains with a nice honey note. Overall, a nice rum better than expected. Nothing too different or interesting but easy to drink. Kinda reminds me of stuff from Darsa but just not quite as good.
Review by Tola76
You get the bitter orange right in the nose. Then for me, a lot of marzipan with vanilla. On the palate, identical with light sweetness. Very round. Short aftertaste. You really can't go wrong for the price.
Review by Sebastiaan Linssen
Interesting to drink a rum from the Philippines. But the origin aside, I have to say that I was not impressed with this rum. Lots of burnt sugar on the palate, almost considered using it as a mixer.. Looking at the price tag, I would recommend buying something else.
Review by Richard Colwell
The nose is sweet, slightly woody and medicinal. The palate is relatively simple, indexing on sweet syrupy-ness with moderate oak and baking spices. The finish is quite short, simple, and sweet. Not incredibly complex, but decently pleasant.

A very good sipping Rum
Review by themanwhowasntthere
Really nice sipper for beginners
Review by StefanR
The Tanduay Double Rum "La Caña de Azúcar" is an accessible, sweet-spicy rum with a tropical touch that reflects the classic Filipino rum tradition. It feels softer and rounder than typical base rums, without being too complex – a rum you can enjoy on ice, neat, or in a classic long drink like Rum & Cola. Its balance between sweet, fruity, and lightly spicy makes it especially suitable for connoisseurs looking for a friendly entry experience into aged rums, without venturing into very heavy or extremely complex profile dimensions.
Review by DruNierer
Some lingering harshness when drinking neat, much better over ice. Burnt sugar is the dominant smell and taste with some citrus component on the nose. Sweetness increases the longer it’s in the glass.
Review by Mirjam van den Berg-Geers
Things are going well tonight 😁 this one is less sharp. Okay but not a topper
Review by seefarr
It's fine. The orangey smells are nice but there's not much else going on.
