Oliver & Oliver Relicario Superior
Neat it's easy but flat — sweet caramel and vanilla over a spirit note that's louder than the 40% suggests, plus oak and a slightly bitter tail. Where it actually shines is in a glass with cola and lime: several members call it a great Cuba Libre base, especially if Havana feels too pushy. "Too sweet for my taste" comes up a lot.
The community says- Easy entry rum
- Great in cola
- Keep in mind: Tastes sweetened

How does Oliver & Oliver Relicario Superior taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Sweet, simple Dominican that mixes better than it sips Most see a decent entry-level Dominican: sweet, woody, uncomplicated. The common gripes are noticeable sweetness and a spirity, faintly bitter finish. People rate it far higher as a mixer than neat.

Review by Galli33
Good for Mixing, nice as a cuba libre 👌🏻 A bit to sweet for what I like (maybe sugar was added!?) This was diluted for sure, no power, complexity… Update: This was one of my first rum of this amazing journey through the rum world! Now after 3 years(!) the bottle is empty 😅
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
This rum is kind of thin/flat and lacks complexity, but I think it's a good beginner rum. The nose is fruity with oak and vanilla. The palate is fruity and the finish in whisky barrels is clear in the taste. The oak is present and so is smoke and vanilla. The finish is medium and spicy with oak/smoke.
Review by Rumpalumpa
Nice Latin American. Pure quite good, although rather flat and somewhat spritzy. But it's good for cocktails where the typical woody spice of aged 'Spanish' rum is desired. Makes a great Nui Nui for example!
Review by zabo
Found way back in the cupboard again. Just tried it briefly and wondered about my taste back then at the beginning. Well, the neighbor was happy to get the leftover bottle as a cola mixer. Luckily, he still likes it.
Review by Air-one
Dominant alcohol nose followed by caramel. The alcohol is found on the palate with a little spicy caramel side. Finish too short. The content does not live up to the container. It remains a nice gateway into the world of rum.
Review by w00tAN
Slightly alcoholic in taste and despite the 40% otherwise basically a generic flavor and nothing special. Suitable as a simple sipper and especially for beginners. For me personally, there are more exciting options in this price range.
Review by Portman
Reminds me on the first sip of a high-ester Jamaica rum, very sweet. Unfortunately, you clearly taste the sweetening. Still a round, medium-bodied rum with lots of fruit. The finish is unfortunately a bit alcoholic and almost bitter. But the price-performance ratio definitely fits!
Review by Werner10
Not too sweet, woody flavors and a bit roasted. Also has a smokey touch in the finish. Not bad for what it costs.

Unfortunately too sweet for me in taste.

Review by Schnapsschuesse
Vanille, Trauben, Karamell, ein Hauch Schoko und eine unpassend starke Alkoholnote. Die Nase ist recht generisch aber nicht schlecht. Ein Hauch Cuba und viel Holz samt Politur. Der scharfe Alkohol trübt dann auch leider den recht flachen und unkomplexen Geschmack. Hier ist nichts los ausser den Noten aus der Nase, drapiert auf dünnem aber starken Alkohol. Gemixt dann überraschend gut - klasse Cuba Libre für alle denen Havana & Co. zu penetrant in ihrem Charakter sind. Fur mich keine Pulle die man im Regal braucht.
Review by Bert Tronquo
Very cheap and very decent entry level rum. Very good as a mixer, enjoyable pure but nothing remarkable. Since the low price I would actually buy it again if I'm in need for a mixer at home.
Review by Александр Иванов
Simple-dimple Dominican rum. Quite flat. Nose: Caramel, woody, some spices, oak, burnt sugar, vanilla & chocolate. Regular & flat. Palate: similar. Enough sweetness, little bit to much for me. Spicy, lot of caramel, brown sugar, oak, cinnamon, chocolate, dark dry fruits. Aftertaste: short & flat. Only caramel & oak... Conclusion: it's basic rum, but it could be more interesting... you can mix this one with cola, and it's ok.
Review by faust klément
Cocktail rum, good neat, but perfect with a fresh coke and lemon.
Review by LasseL
A very sweet rum. It's worth its money. It's nothing special but very nice if you're looking for a rum to just relaxedly enjoy neat in quantity.
Review by Andy Wrede
Few edges and corners but therefore no distinctive aroma. A bit too alcoholic. Taste sweet and caramel or vanilla. You can drink it, but you don't have to.
Review by Buddudharma
Good example of why the Dominican Republic has such a bad reputation in the rum world. Very one-dimensional and uninteresting, plus an artificial sweetness and a bitter note in the finish. Best suited for tiramisu at best.

Read full review ›There's nothing exciting going on - nothing other than the presentation which would make it stand out from 50 other similar rums. I can't imagine I'll buy another bottle (unless its heavily discounted). Not bad but not all that good either. Very slightly above average. Easy to drink but easy...
