Capitan Bucanero Elixir

6.5/10 based on 38 community reviews ↓

A newcomer-friendly rum liqueur-style elixir: very mild, low-ABV and heavily sweetened. Think caramel, nutty-walnut and apricot notes with a round, punch-like feel. Most RumX members see it more as a flavored liqueur than a classic rum sipper.

  • Very easy-drinking
  • Dessert-like sweetness
  • Good price

5.0/10

This was just a random extra sweet sip experiment with Bucanero. I’m not the target group, I just tasted it from curiosity. Well the suchar was everywhere, little cherry notes on palate, but very far from drinkable experience.
