Ron Jaguar Edición Cordillera Extra Añejo

The surprise here is the split personality: the nose throws out glue, varnish and solvent, then the palate flips to sweet, candied vanilla with faint orange peel. One taster caught almond and marzipan; another called it a "nice sipper." The recurring gripe is a sharp, oddly present alcohol bite for just 43%, and a sweetness several find artificial.

Interesting taste that raises questions. Where does the dominant sweetness come from and the strong alcoholic note at 43 degrees?!

3.9/10

Alkoholische Schärf sehr ungewöhnlich und unangenehm bei nur 43%. Der Rum macht einen sehr unnatürlichen und künstlichen Eindruck. Auch die Süsse fühlt sich eigenartig an. Typisches unausgewogenes Massenprodukt wohl eher zum mixen gedacht als für den puren Genuss.

An exciting rum that shows some solvent and glue on the nose. Mostly fruit and sweetness on the palate. Certainly not the most multifaceted rum. The finish is short and painless. Not unpleasant and quite drinkable. Okay for the price. Nothing more, nothing less.
