Phenomenal Spirits Ron Izalco 15 Años Cask Strength
"Very different Spanish style rum," as one taster put it — and that's the honest read. Expect wood and tobacco up front, a little glue and baked pineapple, with orange peel and a touch of caramel behind. Bottled at cask strength but the 55% sits well integrated. One reviewer hit a strong perfume note on the palate and finish and didn't enjoy it.
The community says- Well-integrated alcohol
- Balanced despite strength
- Keep in mind: Perfume note divides

How does Phenomenal Spirits Ron Izalco 15 Años Cask Strength taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Woody, tobacco-heavy cask-strength blend Wood-and-tobacco-forward blend with light funk and good balance for the strength. Well-liked overall, though a divisive perfume note on the finish puts some people off.

Very different Spanish style rum. It is really solid in the profile, Spanish style, blended rum. Vanilla, rubber, leather, coffee, tobacco, baked pineapple, orange peel, fermented fruit Very well integrated alcohol Nicaragua and Guyana added gives funk and medicinal/rubber notes Ex bourbon, mollasses based, straight aged(not solera) It’s the first time I had a chance to try it.

Review by Johannes
Alcohol not perfectly integrated, but a very good beginner rum.
Review by hubo
Balanced and complex in smell and taste, fruity complemented with spice and wood notes, alcohol well integrated.
Review by Casper Jensen
Tobacco is a bit prominent and there is quite a lot of wood.

Read full review ›However, this really is well worth trying. It is much more in keeping with the type of rum I enjoy. It has a really nice balance despite it's intense flavours and doesn't have any "bum" notes. At £70 it is also well priced for a 15 Year Old Cask Strength...
