El Supremo 8 Años
Most find it off-balance with sour, metallic and salty notes; a few enjoy its herbal, agricole‑like side. Consensus: interesting but generally not well-regarded for neat drinking.
Curious rum drinkers who like trying unusual profiles, don’t mind salty/licorice and metallic notes, and want a lower-ABV bottle mainly for casual tasting experiments.

I was very impressed by this double barreled rum from Paraguay. An exceptional medium bodied dark amber rum with a complex fusion. The initial nose is warming and redolent. Cloves cinnamon candied orange peel and vanilla . A slightly lactic tang brings to mind a carrot cake ; extremely inviting. On the palate spicy and dry , layers of cocoa, caramel and spices. A strong incienso marrón wood and oak is more inviting than challenging. The structure is coherent. The finish is long smooth clean and supple. There is an appetising bitter cocoa note and it goes down like spiced Mexican hot coco, warming but restraint. Excellent sipping rum.
24 Days of Rum Kalender – Black Edition 2024 – Day 16 Erster Eindruck: Kakao und Hefe, könnte interessant sein aber auch etwas merkwürdig Nase: Kakao, Hefe, leicht überreife Früchte Gaumen: Holz, Vanille, leicht metallische Aromen, die einen unrunden Eindruck vermitteln Abgang: verbrannt aber zum Glück nur kurz Gesamteindruck: unrunde, störende Aromen in der Nase und am Gaumen, für mich nicht akzeptabel – nicht pur und auch nicht in Mixern. Sorry
Vůně spíš z agricole rybníku. Svěží až bylinková. Vůbec s tím nemám problém. Chuť dost travnatá, zeleninová s koření. Řekněme něco mezi karibským agricole a cachacou. Závěr zase dost rostlinný s hřebíčkem a snad lékořicí, nejsem si v tom moc jistý. Obyčejnější kousek, ale pro mě žádný průšvih.
Doesn’t smell like something I’d like to drink and taste is funky allthough not fully unpleasant to my evolving palate.
