Destileria Sofa El General 2009
Sweet-tooth sippers easing into aged Venezuelan rum will get on with this one: caramel and vanilla up front, dried dates in the background, soft and easy at 40%. The catch a few tasters flag is a lack of depth, plus a slightly bitter caramel note creeping into the finish. Pleasant, gentle, not much to chew on past the first sip.

Soft, sweet caramel sipper, short on depth Easy, sweetish caramel-and-vanilla pour most found pleasant but thin. One member summed it up as "average, non significant, but not disgusting"; the bitter caramel finish divides people.

Review by Jindrich Strobl
Nice, easy drinking rum. Wooden and vanilla taste notes. But lack of depth in taste.

Average, non significant, but not disgusting
Review by Martin Ekrt
Cítit je hlavně po karamelu a vanilce se sušenými datlemi. Chuť: Sladkost vyšší, ale ještě snesitelná. Převážně karamel s trochou sušeného ovoce a vanilky. Škoda divného závěru, kde ruší jakási karamelová hořkost. Darovanému koni na zuby nekoukej🙈
