El Ron del Artesano Panama Rum - Peated Cask Finish 2009
Reactions land in the middle: interesting, not thrilling. This is a light Panama column rum sent through a peated cask, and the smoke does most of the talking — campfire and peat up front, with tobacco, honey and a bit of green apple underneath. The body runs thin, so the finish carries it: smoky and lightly spiced, lingering longer than the palate. Whisky drinkers will feel right at home.
The community says- Big peat smoke
- Long smoky finish
- But: Thin body

Smoky peated-cask Panama for whisky fans A curiosity more than a knockout — the peat overshadows almost everything else, and several tasters call it thin. Fun if smoke is your thing, forgettable if it isn't.

Review by Jakob
Due to the finish, an aroma spectrum mainly of smoky notes and syrupy sweetness arises, which almost overlays all other notes. Overall, therefore, a pretty straightforward bottling. Solid, because the smokiness still provides a counterbalance, but not more, because hardly anything else happens.
Review by Alexander Rasch
My RumRatings review from 6 years ago is misleading here because I was simply fascinated back then. Over time, it became rather difficult to drink and without the fascination part, also uninteresting, as the whisky notes then do bother. So I'll leave it out here. In summary: I found the finish successful because the peated part only came through gradually while drinking and the parts complemented each other well. So far the only peated finish I could get along with, only to eventually go separate ways. From a craftsmanship perspective, very good work.
Review by Tobin
Very smoky. Not thrilling, but definitely leaves a lasting impression.
Review by Daniel
Conclusion: A bit thin, but definitely something for whisky fans. The finish is clearly noticeable on the nose and palate. Overall easy sipping.
Review by ChristophFFM
Gentle on the tip of the tongue and with strength and spice in the finish.
