Les Bienheureux Embargo Añejo Esplendido

Opinions land all over the place here. Some tasters find a soft, Cuban-style sipper with wood, vanilla, caramel and dark chocolate — one even calls it cherries in chocolate — while others feel it goes sour and thin, with nothing really stepping forward. A gentle, heavily caramel-forward 5-year blend that's easy but rarely exciting.

The community says
  • Easy drinking
  • Vanilla and caramel
  • But: Very caramel-forward

Soft, caramel-heavy easy sipper Splits people hard. Fans get an easy, chocolate-caramel sipper you can't mess up; critics find it sour and characterless, with sweetness doing most of the work.

7.2/10

Also für mich ist dies ein richtig schöner, kubanischen Sipper. Holz, Vanille, Karamell und dunkle Schokolade haben wir hier, aber nicht zu krass, lässt sich noch ganz locker trinken. Easy Rum, wo man nichts mit falsch machen kann.

Complex nose due to the blend. Pleasant palate but a bit recessed. The toasted barrel is well present.
