Rhum agréable, qui se boit très facilement.

C'est pas mauvais, mais trop sucre à mon gout
Review by Gerbes
Very nice choice from mid range rums with lower sweetness level.
Review by Anthony D3
Sweet on the front and woody on the back end. A good sipper
Review by AustrianOak
A davantage de caractère qu'un traditionnel Diplomatico, ou autre. TB rapport qualité/prix. Finale gourmande, sucrée, biscuitée, fondante.
Review by Lesi
Full of orange jam but not too sweet. Even though sugared very tasty French cognac rum.
Review by titouan burgos
Started on the nose with some really pleasant yellow fruits and a hint of a pleasant Woody notes. While drinking you get first some apple notes rounded in vanilla. You Can feel dark chocolates notes aswell as yellow fruits. In the aftertaste you really have a long grapefruit taste finished by Pepper notes. Texture IS super velvety not coating the mouth but Can be felt like a juice.
Review by Mathieu Visiere
Smoky and roasty taste, caramel ans sweet aromas. One of the first Real rums i disovered and that i'm happy with. Definitely worth a try.

Bon pour un rhum mélasse
Review by MarMOTTE
Un rhum agréable, doux et facile à déguster. Un nez qui tient ses promesses en bouche... Rond, Régulier et persistant.
Review by Timo Groeger
Shopbesuch Weinquelle Lühmann Hamburg April 2025. Hier gehe ich mal mit mit den Bewertungen :) Relativ schöne Nase bestehend aus Vanille und Karamell. Am Gaumen haben wir auch Vanille und Karmell, sowie etwas Holz. Anständiger Rum.
Review by Godspeed
Delicious but there’s some sugar added here. Nose: Subtle nose with toasted vanilla and maybe slight spice. Zero alcohol scent. Mouth: Caramel and Tiramisu, delicious dessert notes. Great flavors and good strength to them. Finish: Appropriately long, easy to savor and be reflective over. No rush as it lingers well. Very pleasantly surprised by this Spanish style rum. As a dessert sipper this is probably pushing an 8. There is a decadence to its sips that is extremely agreeable. However, like most Spanish style rums don’t expect a lot of heft or body here, their character’s tend to be light and this is no exception. A pretty great rum, plain and simple. Points off for the dosage.
Review by TheRhumhoe
A French brand that bottles a Guatemalan rum that has become very popular among Hispanic rums. Typically caramelized, spicy and woody notes, with a hint of fruit and tobacco. The dilution in the mouth is noticeable, it's very light, slightly honeyed and alcoholic, quite a lot of caramel, spices, nuts and a hint of mocha. The finish is short, slightly more roasted and woody. Luscious but terribly basic, this is an all-purpose rum for neophytes.
Review by Rumpalumpa
Initially restrained on the nose but very nice on the palate. For me, it tastes typically Guatemalan, pleasantly sweet and nicely woody. What I can taste is honey. Perhaps not complex enough for some, but still a delicious drop.
Review by hugo148
C’est un rhum agréable, facile à boire avec un jolie nez…. Le gout est relativement simple et manque peut-être d’un peu de complexité. La petite amertume de fin de bouche n’est pas désagréable mais la durée est très courte. Bon rhum mais sans plus!!!
