How does Ron Barco de Cargas Navy Strength taste?
Aggregated from 12 community reviews.
Sweet, mild navy-strength dessert rum A solid, very sweet navy-strength sipper: oily, chocolate‑caramel and dried fruit notes with mild alcohol for 60%. Loved by fans of dessert‑style rums, less so by those wanting complexity.
Those who enjoy very sweet, dessert-style rums (Don Papa, sherried, syrupy profiles) and want a stronger yet still mild-feeling sipper or winter fireplace dram.
Anyone avoiding added sugar, seeking dry/complex rum, or sensitive to very sweet, oily profiles despite the higher ABV.

Süßlich vergleichbar zu Don Papa. Allerdings nicht so intensiv. Etwas milder im Abgang. Gutes Preis Leistungsverhältnis
Review by Montana
Ein sehr dunkler Bronzeton. Der Geruch ist schwer, ölig, süßlich, im Hintergrund schwach alkoholisch und scharf. Der Geschmack ist recht süß, Sherry und Sirup, später leicht brennend vom Alkohol, ziemlich ölig. Der Abgang ist lang anhaltend, ölig und kraftvoll.
Review by AllanbergDK
Very good..the higher strength, fits perfect
