Flor de Caña TERRA 2017

A dry column-still Nicaraguan for drinkers stepping past sweet rums and wanting more to chew on. The nose leans nicer than the palate — wood, spice, a bit of orange and roasted nuts — while the taste turns dry and woody with chocolate and mocha, and for some a tobacco-like bitterness on the finish. At 40% it can read thin to seasoned palates, so a few drops of water help it settle.

#6285 26.01.2026 Relaxing with a few samples and my new playlist with Trance and Psy-Trance. Nose Light wood, light roasted, spice, faint polish, cinnamon, light nutts, light orange. Palate Medium dry, wood, light chocolate, cinnamon, nutts, faint nougat, light orange. Finish Medium long, round, peppery, cinnamon, light nutts, medium dry. Empty glass Cinnamon, chocolate, light nutts, light nougat. Needs to rest for a while or a few drops of water for it to settle and open up properly.

Flor de Cana Terra is a very good rum especially for people who are relatively new, who have taken the step from sweet to dry rum and now want to discover more facets of rum. For beginners it might taste a bit alcoholic, for advanced drinkers it is rather watery.

6.0/10

The smell is for me clearly more pleasant than the taste. I smell many spices, floral, wood. Taste is dominated by an unpleasant bitterness for me. I rather assign that to tobacco. With the 3rd 4th sip I find it hard to taste anything besides the bitterness. A drop of water and I taste nougat, medicinal, wood.

Aged rum 

Avg Rating 8.0/10 over 15,000 Rums

Aged rum is where the spirit earns its complexity. In a tropical warehouse a barrel loses 6 to 10 percent of its contents to evaporation every year, which is why an 8-year Caribbean rum can taste deeper than a 20-year Scotch. This page gathers every rum on RumX that has spent real time in wood, with community ratings to separate the genuinely mature from the merely dark.
