Review by Rumpalumpa
I bought it to mix with cola and was absolutely convinced. Compared to the alternatives here in Spain, which are also somewhat cheaper, such as Negrita, much better. Hardly alcoholic and pleasantly sweet barrel aromas.

Good for mixing
Review by nick_nick1
Recht scharf… kann man trinken. Eher aber was zum mischen
Review by TheJackDrop
What can you expect from a Chupito shot of rum at a Flamenco competition in Seville? I've got the answer: not much! A vague smell of caramel, coffee, a few spices behind some poorly integrated alcohol and a liquid/watery appearance. In short, it was all about respecting tradition.
Review by cedric van hese
Le goût se révèle seulement lorsqu'il est mélangé avec un soft.
Review by Pawel Furman
Quite pleasant, you can even sip it solo. Not very complex but pleasant. Delicate sweetness, caramel, chocolate, mocha coffee, vanilla notes. Short but pleasant finish, coffee, vanilla and peppery notes. Great for drinks.
Review by Jack M
Had it with coke and it is fairly pleasant. Had it neat to get a better feel for the rum and it is ok. Fairly sweet with notes of caramel and toffee but not excessively so. There are also wood, dried dates and dark chocolate notes which are nice.
Review by Decky Hicks Doughty
Very middle of the road. None offensive. Ideal for a bar that need to hit price points but I'd avoid for the home bar.

Not much to look into it as a sipper, but get's the job done as a mixer.

Rhum à cocktail. Très peu de saveurs en bouche si ce n'est son côté épicé.
Review by El Brettford Esq.
Powerful muted fume smell, honestly reminded me of a paint thinner at first sniff I once used, I did not find it pleasurable. Taste will be fine with a flavoured mix, but unremarkable on its own.
Review by epicsune 🇸🇪
The sweetness that it promises on the nose does not translate to the taste. I would not recommend this as a sipping rum and the palate is mostly alcoholic, oily and woody.
