Cihuatán Suerte Aged Rum
Here's the surprise: for a 15-17 year El Salvadoran rum at 44.2%, the nose is faint and the body reads light. Several tasters wished for more punch. What you do get is soft and fruity — vanilla, dried figs, sherry and young oak, with a light minerality some credit to the quartz filtering. Pleasant and gently sweet, just not a heavyweight.
The community says- Soft fruity palate

How does Cihuatán Suerte Aged Rum taste?
Aggregated from 44 community reviews.
Soft, sweet, sherry-and-oak sipper, a touch thin Well-liked as an easy, sweetened sherry-and-oak sipper from Central America. The recurring gripe: thin body and a quiet nose that don't quite match the age statement.

Eher schwach an der Nase, obwohl er ein paar Prozente extra bekommen hat. Holz- und Sherryeinflüsse sind dominant, an Nase, Mund und Abgang. Ergänzend gibt es Gewürze, Trockenfrüchte und verschiedene Süßigkeiten. Interessanter Aspekt an der Nase: Bleistiftspähne.

#4246 09.09.2023 I got 6 secret samples from a friend as a blind tasting and that has been a lot of fun spread over two evenings. First off, the price to quality is pretty good. Once rested it's a fruity profile with nice spices and very light wood. The palate i light and I would have loved a higher ABV. The finish is medium long and also kind of light. The empty glass has some mineral and chocolate notes.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Intense notes of Madeira and virgin oak, sesame cookies, peppery and drier like the alux and nice notes of dried fig and slightly mineral due to the quartz filtering. I like the alux better overall!

Degusté au Spirits Days à Tournai, notes rapides : Fruité & boisé. Bref : je n'ai pas pris de notes ici, fin de salon,

Vanillin aus dem Eichenfass, Holz, etwas Sherry.
Review by Blockzeitwilli
Ziemlich leichte Nase: Süßlich, Vanille, fruchtig, ein wenig mineralisch. Dann folgt am Gaumen eine etwas stärkere Süße (nicht zu süß) mit Vanille, Früchte.. Fand ihn überraschend angenehm.
Review by Schnapsschuesse
The usual pleasant sweetness, lots of young wood, unfortunately a little thin compared to the other special editions.

Zoetig begin, maar heel fijn om wat langer in de mond te houden. Molassige nasmaak
Review by R Wehner
Nose delicious, wood, a little sweet, vanilla; tongue confirms the smell, delicious balanced sweet rum, price possibly a little too high for it
