Licores San Miguel SA Ron San Miguel Solera 1952 Añejo

Sipped neat it splits people down the middle. The nose promises sweet coconut, vanilla and orange, but the palate turns woody, spicy and cinnamon-heavy with a noticeable alcohol bite that isn't always well tucked in. One taster nailed the aroma as "like a f##n yankee candle." A few find it tastes sweetened, with a sugary burn on the finish some really dislike.

The community says
  • Coconut-orange nose
  • But: Harsh alcohol

Not the best rum. Quite sweet and very alcoholic. The taste lingers on the palate for quite a long time. You can taste a hint of chocolate, but otherwise it's almost all sweetness and alcohol. Doesn't get me.

4.5/10

Uninteresting vanilla sugar scent with a pinch of cinnamon. Taste-wise also uninteresting. Dried fruit and at the end a bit of citrus note, which finally develops into an unpleasant sugary caramel aftertaste. This doesn't suit me at all. Edit: finished the sample and downgraded.

Expert review by The Dunder Hut

Whatever is used to sweeten this, is way too much. There is a sugary burn in the aftertaste I really dislike. The coconut is so intense, that I have doubts of it origins. Nobody should want this. I fyou want coconut there are far better options
