Silver Seal Panama Rum Small Batch 2006
Sweet-Panama drinkers are the natural home for this one. Expect vanilla, tobacco, caramel and brown sugar, with a bit of nutty roasted wood and a citrus edge on the nose. Several tasters call it "smooth as butter" but also thin and one-dimensional, with a short, sugary finish that fades fast. Pleasant, easy, and clearly on the sweetened side.

How does Silver Seal Panama Rum Small Batch 2006 taste?
Summarized by AI from 17 community reviews.
Sweet, thin, easy-drinking Panama sipper Divides opinion: a nice tobacco-and-vanilla nose that most agree turns thin, very sweet and one-dimensional on the palate. Pleasant but forgettable, and clearly sugared.

Review by LukaŽiga
8,1:On the nose, the first impression we get are citrus fruits with an orange, tropical and dried fruits, roasted wood notes like nuts, caramel, slightly spicy, mostly with a vanilla, pleasantly round. On aeration, tobacco is out, herbaceous and flowery touch of molasses, the wood is charred, smoky with bacon, spicy with baking spices, a bit medicinal and slightly tannic. 7,8:On the palate, the attack is sweet and syrupy with caramelized brown sugar, tropical fruits like a banana, dried fruits with prunes, figs, raisins and citrus with bitter orange, later yellow fruits arise.The wood goes from roasted to charred, smoked with rest, with notes like leather, bacon, caramel, spicy with baking spices, but vanilla is the first, tobacco is also noticed... 7,5:The finish is quite short, dry, tannic, diluted, still sweet with roasted wood notes, dried fruits, cherry and toasted coconut, slightly spicy, some tobacco stays... Edit 19.7.25
Review by Rumpalumpa
Nice Panama rum with familiar notes of tobacco and roasted coffee. Not as terribly sweet as others described it, but also just very thin and still alcoholic on the nose.
Review by Johannes
Surprisingly weak! Thin and tastes mainly sweetened. Surprising that Silver Seal bottles this!
Review by Thunderbird
Oh how beautiful is Panama... Unfortunately not the case here. The Silver Seal is quite sweet, thin and one-dimensional... on the palate I just barely taste a light fruit note (possibly lychee). Otherwise, besides the taste of sugar-like juice, nothing remains.
Review by Alexander Rasch
Still exciting on the nose, the rum fizzles out in the mouth. This may be due to the low 43%, but overall it seems one-dimensional. Very sweet and easy to drink. Then gone so fast, it's almost surprising. But the nose is quite appealing.
Review by Leo Krüper
A bit more delicate than the 30. Not an outstanding rum but clearly Panama.
Review by TheJackDrop
Nice and fruity, pastry-like, with polished wood notes that remind me of Réunion... Not bad!

I actually don't mind this one as much. Sure, we do know what to expect with Panama, sugared profile and hopefully some leather or tobacco. This has some tobacco and wood and is smooth as butter. I did not mind this
