Review by Nando70
An extremely decent rum for the price. Very South American style (and joy) without sugar. A product to have in your bar without second thoughts... A typical South American nose... Woody, floral, and fruity, all in a gentle way. A fruity palate leaning towards coffee and caramel with a nice spicy kick... A short, woody, and spicy finish... A bit of a shame. But that doesn't take away from its qualities. It could use a few more degrees of ABV.

beautiful unsweetened
Review by Christoph
Delicious easy zipping rum with lots of milk chocolate and banana, plus winter spices.
Review by DosenZorn
Have bought this rum mainly because of the beautiful bottle. Actually a Red Flag, if you are looking for good taste, this one has surprised me relatively positively. Due to the only 40% somewhat watered down and thin and not too complex but a nice Feierabend Sipper at a good price. Definitely a great entry rum and superior to the many dead sugared competitors.Addendum: last drop is out of the bottle. Complex? Rather less. Good sipper? Definitely. A good unsweetened representative of the Spanish style. A little more power would have done it good. A >50% version would be nice. Still, great price/performance. Overall rating 2
Review by GRUNERT Fabrice
un bon senteur vanille, un très fort goût de vanille, non sucré et tendre.
Review by Rumpalumpa
very nice and rather unique under the latin style rums. the aroma seems roasted and nutty. the wood is pretty strong but well integrated. Like most latin rums it doesn't throw too much at you, but I enjoy this one a lot. Higer abv would be great
Review by PeixeGato
Medium-bodied with a nutty flavor. Some charred barrel notes. Reminds me of bourbon.
Review by LukaŽiga
7,5:On the nose, initially quite sharper oak, tobacco, a little chocolate, coffee. Sultanas, pralines, almonds, dried fruits, more confectionary notes come to front after some time. A touch vegetal (green plantain), turnip then more oak & vanilla. It's a pleasant nose overall, not offensive at all, sweet but not sickly. 7,5:On the palate, there are prunes, nougat, oranges, a hint of cooked peach/apricots, molasses, a little banana peel, incense, dried fruits, lots of prominent spicy oak. 7,2:The finish is on the medium side, over steeped black tea, blackcurrant buds, juniper, a little marzipan & floral..

Review by Patrik Onderka
A freat surprise for me especially considering price/performance ratio. Very pleasant rum in general from Colombia the land of Dictador. I like this more than banana experiment which was extremely sweet to me. A very sympathetic feelings it left.

Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
02.10.2016 - 03.10.2016 A great extended weekend with rum friends. This was a nice event and lots of space between the tables. Only problem was the level of English at some of the exhibitors. Here are the rums we tasted at the event itself, nothing truly unique but we had fun. This is the first half of the tastings. Notes Light roasted wood, vanilla, orange, light coffee, light dried fruit, faint caramel. Palate Light, light wood, light coffee, orange, light chocolate, light smoke, sweet, earthy. Finish Short to medium, light wood, light tobacco, light coffee, faint chocolate, nutts.

C only. A bit sweet for R. Plummy, fruity, a bit toffee, but some how light and subtle
Review by TheJackDrop
"It has replaced diplomatico for all those new to the world of rum! In summary, my tasting notes: On the nose: Vanilla, Strawberry, Dairy products On the palate: Vanilla, Bourbon, Fût " Little plus: the label is nice.
