A newcomer-friendly Paraguayan column still rum at 40%. RumX members mostly find it light, sweet and quite simple, with notes of mint, vanilla and caramel. Works better in mixed drinks than neat.

Review by Timo Groeger
El Brujo aus Panama. In der Nase hat man hier überwiegend Minze, aber doch auch etwas Traube ist zu erkennen. Am Gaumen ebenfalls überwiegend Minze, aber auch leichte Noten von Holz und Vanille. Gibt bessere in diesem Preissegment.

Fantastic awesome surprise with tiny sweet note
Review by Tom Buteneers
Aangenaam, maar mist wat complexiteit
Review by rum_sk
Very empty 👃, sweetness and hint of burnt caramel. 👅 is more prominent sweet taste and very spicy profile. Otherwise very blank and empty rum. Disappointing all-around.
Review by Thunderbird
In der Nase Wick-Hustensaft…am Gaumen nicht viel anders, nur mit mehr Alkohol
