E. Leon Jimenes 110 Aniversario

Sweet-tooth sippers and cigar smokers are the natural audience here — this Dominican pour leans soft and sugary, with caramel, vanilla and coffee-brioche notes over gentle wood. The 40% comes across watery and thin for a 10-year-old, and a few members find the fruit tastes artificial. Pleasant enough after dinner, but don't expect much structure or a long finish.

How does E. Leon Jimenes 110 Aniversario taste?

Summarized by AI from 14 community reviews.

Very sweet, soft Dominican after-dinner sipper Divides the room: easy and pleasant to some, over-sugared and hollow to others who expected more depth from a decade in oak. The finish is short and sticky.

A gift from a good friend! Didn't expect so much at first, but was pleasantly surprised. Certainly on the sweet side, but it's not quite as dominant. Beautiful dark notes: A bit of coffee, vanilla, roasted aromas, wood. However, the price charged for it is complete nonsense: at least €50 too expensive.

A Dominican rum made by Barcelo for the Léon Jimenes cigar brand (La Aurora). A nose that reminds me of a bar in Italy, espresso, liqueurs and vanilla brioche. A diluted but interesting palate. A short finish, but a taste of salted butter caramel remains on the palate. Interesting.

8.3/10
My friend Martin Pokreis brought me this bottle to show and taste, for which I am very grateful. After all those Jamaicas, Barbadoses, Haitis, Navy rums with high alcohol content, etc., one gets a bit spoiled and is quite wary of classic Dominican rums, especially if they have 40% alcohol. Moreover, this is practically the only rum under this cigar brand, so it's hard to say what to expect.
