Nase Fruchtig, Caramell, etwas Holz. Rund und weich im Mund, moderate Süße, Rosinen, Caramell leichtes Holz was im Abgang nachklingt.

Classique des CENTENARIO, Nez et bouche gourmands avec même cette touche de bonbons. Peut plaire comme déplaire, histoire de goût ! Finale courte et sur la grenade
Review by LukaŽiga
7,4:On the nose, the first impression we get is a mix of roasted notes, mostly well-toasted nuts, then coffee and toasted wood. Some fruits with syrup cover the wood with an acidity and sweetness. On aeration, there is an American oak, with vanilla, coconut, tobacco and soft wood notes. 7,5:On the palate, the rum is light, with fruit notes quickly overlaid by a vanilla.It is soft and thick, coated. The nuts are similar as roastedness seen on the nose, close to caramelized nougat.There are some dried fruits, bourbon ageing ones. 7,2:The finish is light, medium long, woody, with some spice, quite sweet, caramel a bit artificial...
Review by TheRhumhoe
A Costa Rican rum in pure Hispanic style. The nose is very soft, almost effaced under a caramelized, vanilla, woody and roasted influence. A few dried and candied fruits stand out from the pack, but still fail to take up space in the nostrils. The palate is light and sweet. Beneath the syrupy texture lie notes of coffee, chocolate, walnut and vanilla, set against woody, roasted notes. Light, smooth and linear. The finish returns to roasted notes of coffee, chocolate nuts, caramel and vanilla wood. The flavors last only a brief moment on this light profile. A simple, basic rum, good in its register but not extraordinary either.
Review by Korkennase🥃
Die Nase ist süß, fruchtig, holzig und blumig. Der Geschmack ist was einem die Nase verrät. Der Abgang besticht zusätzlich durch leichte Bitterkeit. Macht sich gut in Cola aber dafür etwas zu teuer. Kann auch pur getrunken werden.
