El Ron Prohibido Reserva 22

The "22" on the label promises more than the glass delivers. The nose leans alcoholic — vanilla and vague fruit with a butter note a couple of tasters kept coming back to. On the palate it turns woody and smoky, with burnt-barrel and roast notes that read undefined rather than deep. Most owners here land on unremarkable; several say the younger versions actually taste better.

The community says
  • Reifer barrel note
  • But: Alcoholic nose
  • But: Flat and vague

5.8/10

In der Nase ein alkoholischer Vanille/Frucht Mix - am Gaumen kommt rauchig/verbranntes Fass dazu. Gegenüber seinen jüngeren Brüdern, merkt man ihm schon das reifere Alter an. Trotzdem schmeckt mir der 15-jährige besser. Alles in allem aber ein solider Mittelklasse-Rum.
