Review by Business Liner Ralf
Rather light fare for a Barcelo. But very pleasant and light in taste. Good rum 👍😁
Review by Mateusz
Suprisingly pleasant, however monotonously toffee and butterscotch like. Sweet in perception. Sugar added, but not to sky high levels.
Review by Kieron Wood
This brings back too many memories early on my rum journey to not rate in the mid range . A typical Spanish rum that you wouldn't dare drink neat but when put with mixers and all inclusive.cocktails is good
Review by Werner10
Good for what it costs. Tastes a bit flat but i do like the finish although it's rather short. Not too sweet either.

Review by Ganimed
Angenehmer weicher Geschmack nach dinkler Kirsche und Schokolade mit einer rauchigen Note.
Review by LukaŽiga
6,3:On the nose, the first impression is dry, woody. The dominant aroma is clearly caramel. This is followed by roasted chocolate notes, nuts, coconut, there is some cinnamon.We could clearly notice ex bourbon cask ageing, as some yellow fruits appear, some orange peel. Finally, a touch of vanilla appears. 6,3:On the palate, the attack is supple but dry, with no sugar. The same aromas are present as on the nose, wood, bourbon, chocolate, roasted nuts, caramel, some spice. However, chocolate and caramel are even.Although the palate is rather light, the tastings buds are well cared. 6:The finish is medium long and still woody, dry. The same notes remain, with some spice...
Review by Gregor
Unfortunately, it also left a negative lasting impression. Not recommended
Review by Elijs Dima
A really simple nose, very little detail aside from sweetness and a bit of alcohol sharp. On taste, however, smooth milky coconut cream. Finish is again coconut milk, thick and creamy and oily. Surprisingly good taste, dull nose.
Review by Tom Leenders
Somewhat bland in taste, very sweet and the taste doesn't stay with you long after tasting either. Otherwise, this is good to drink and especially for this price
Review by Kari Kovalainen
Tastes almost like water
