Review by epicsune 🇸🇪
Sweet smell of vanilla as to be expected since it has been aged in american white oak barrels. Maybe some chocolate tones along with driet fruits. The palate is sweet and round. Dried fruits is there but I cannot figure out which ones specifically. Oak barrels are also very clear with its vanilla tones.
Review by Robert Houba
Poměrně zajímavý rum, vůně mírně umělá, naopak chuť příjemná. Zpočátku nasládlá, tóny ovoce, rozinek, medu, konec ostřejší.

Lots of sweetness and oaky spice, but also hints of more delicate flavours that I can’t quite place
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
#5182 29.03.2025 Running through some samples at home. Nose Light, round, wood, light roasted, dried fruit, light orange, faint chocolate, light marzipan. Palate Round, wood, light roasted, raisin, light orange, light honey, nutts, faint marzipan, light chocolate. Finish Medium long, wood, raisin, light nutts, light orange, faint caramel. Empty glass Light marzipan, light orange, vanilla, chocolate. Price to quality is very good and I think it would do great in a chocolate cake or over ice-cream .
Review by Martin Ekrt
The smell is rather subtle. Dried fruits, vanilla, spices and a well-drinking cask. Maybe even a hint of technicality. And oak it comes. The palate is loaded with sugar. It could have been a good rum or it was an unpalatable abomination, so someone decided to hide it under a veil of caramel. I'd hang for this one🤯😁
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Typical El Salvador. Some smoke, roasted hazelnuts and almonds, dark chocolate, tobacco, some dried fruit, cedar wood and cinnamon. Solid and nice and dry, just a little bitter on the finish. Perfectly fine for the money.
Review by Radek Brix
I'm a fan of Cihuatan, so it's a nice choice for me. The taste is definitely more pronounced than the aroma, start is sweet, the finish is relatively long with a slight bitterness. I'm probably too enthusiastic about the rating... but I stared recognize rum world with Cihuatan.

Mal wieder ein Cane Island. Dieser hier schmeckt dann doch etwas zu süß. Noten von dunkler Schokolade, Rosinen und Vanille kommen hier deutlich zum Vorschein. Schmeckt jedoch ein wenig künstlich daher nicht unbedingt eine Empfehlung
Review by Lutz Lungershausen
24 Days of Rum 2024 - Black Edition - Day 15 First impression: subtle to weakening, then intense Nose: restrained, light aromas of chocolate, wood, orange peel Palate: now the aromas come crashing in: everything that makes rum ... wood, tobacco, spices Finish: medium long, coffee is now added in the aftertaste, finally slightly bitter Overall impression: exciting, because initially weak on the nose, then strong on the palate. Still only average for me overall.

Review by Solidfunk
24 days of rum calendar mini #15, and follows the theme of plenty of sugar dosing for this calendar. Sweet caramel. A little oak, vanilla. Golden pour. Light bitter end.
