Eminente Gran Réserva (Édition n2) 2025
One taster called it a "quite typical Cuban rum, bit drier" than the usual sweet Cubans, and that fits. The Sauternes finish brings honey, dried figs and raisins, a little dried apricot, vanilla and tobacco, with leather and gentle oak tannins. Most find it a pleasant, dry easy sipper — rounded, not showy. A couple noted the finish tips bitter and lingers.
The community says- Honey and dried fruit
- Dry Sauternes finish

Dry Cuban sipper with Sauternes dried fruit A well-liked Sauternes-finished Cuban — honey, dried fruit and tobacco in a dry, easy style. Rounded rather than remarkable; one or two found the finish turns bitter.

Sauternes and Cuba go incredibly well together! Honey, dried apricots, and dried fruits like figs and raisins accompanied by vanilla and tonka bean, a bit of salt, as well as Virginia tobacco and leather, and pleasant subtle tannins from the wood. I like it surprisingly much! Nice, dry, easy sipper! A positive surprise and so far one of the best executed Sauternes finishes.

For a Cuban, a really good product. Especially considering the price, you can definitely enjoy this rum. Dried fruits are noticeably more prominent than in other Cubans where wood, spice, and caramel aromas dominate.

#7052 17.07.2026 Finally weekend and this week I've been walking a lot so now I want to relax. The wife is out with one of her Japanese friends so I can watch some Steven Segal movies at fulle blast. A well rounded rum with a nice price tag in my mind. Well runded rum with natural sweetness, fruits, caramel, honey, light roasted wood and a light peppery note.

Trnava Rumfest 2026 Quite typical Cuban rum, bit drier among the basic sweet rums
Review by zabo
After having already tried several Eminente rums, thanks to a tasting set I won once on RumX, this one fits seamlessly into that lineup without really standing out. Solid but not exceptional, though the finish works well here.
Review by Tim
A rum in the Spanish style with average quality. No surprises, overall smooth with a bit of tobacco on the nose, but also really fruity. The usual range of a Spanish rum is also present on the palate and finish.
Review by Schorgelorsch
I find the nose nice, and the first taste on the palate is great too. But then it gets bitter too quickly for me and that lingers for a long time. I remember the RX7273 much more positively. Edit: on a second try in the evening on the terrace, a very different impression. Changed rating from 5.5 to 8

Gran Reserva 10 years, batch 2 with a finish in Sauternes cask. Very chocolaty.

A second, blind, tasting made me reconsider and raise 0.5 points.
