Palírna U Zeleného stromu Heffron Panama 5YO Original
Opinions land all over the place here, but most settle on the same idea: a sweet, mild Panama column-still rum that's fine for the money and not much more. Expect honey, caramel and vanilla with a light spice, and a few tasters flag an artificial edge and a short finish. One member sums it up as "good for sweet tooths."
The community says- Easy and mild

Review by Michael Ihmels 🇩🇪
Der nächste Palirna. Finde ich noch ein wenig schlechter als den ersten. Leicht würzig im Geschmack und Geruch. Vermutlich mit Cola als Cuba libre ganz in Ordnung.. aber ich werde ihn mir nicht wieder holen.
Review by rum_sk
Well I am not a fan I must say although I changed my mind and I find itt better than republica. I will drink it if I am offered but I wouldn't seek it 😉 Lot of spices such as vanilla, cinnamon with dose of sugar and kind of aritificial flavor. Good for sweet tooths though. Panama rum? Sure. Premium? Hardly.
Review by MJ72
Bei 38* entsprechend mild, leichter Karamell, etwas Vanille, ansonsten noch wenig Fasswürze. In der Nase Flach, Alkohol und der Karamell.
Review by Old Pirate 🏴☠️🇨🇿
Blend of some Panama rums unknown distilleries. Not bad but nothing you will enjoy, rather use it as a mixer in cheap drinks.
Review by Tomáš Šárocký
Very nice and smooth smell with but of a fruits in it. Taste is very similar to the smell, fruity and with a bit of a honey. Overall it is a good rum for a great price! Recommend for standard drinking evenings, when you don't want to take out the best, but still enjoy a nice taste for a reasonable price.
