Sipped neat or over ice, this Colombian column-still blend leans into vanilla, cocoa, milk chocolate and woody spice, with a little orange peel and dried fruit around the edges. Several tasters call it a mild, honest everyday sipper that's dry rather than sugared. The catch shows up in the mouth: at 40% it reads a touch thin, and the wood can flatten the fruit the nose promises.
The community says- Unsweetened
- Cocoa and vanilla
- Keep in mind: Thin at 40%

How does La Hechicera Fine Aged Rum taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Mild, dry chocolate-and-oak everyday sipper Most see a mild, unsweetened Spanish-style rum with chocolate and oak that's fair value but underpowered. Fans like the honesty; others find it thin, dry and unremarkable.

Nothing stood out on this one for me other than a little oak flavor. It was a solid drink straight, but had a stronger after burn than I would’ve hoped. Mixed was just okay. I tried two different bottles over a few years, and averaged the two. I did think the bottle was a strong one, especially with the wax seal.
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.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
beautiful unsweetened
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 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 Christoph
Delicious easy zipping rum with lots of milk chocolate and banana, plus winter spices.
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.
Review by GRUNERT Fabrice
A good vanilla scent, a very strong vanilla taste, not sweet and tender.
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.
Review by Martin Augustin
Hints of cocoa, caramel, brown sugar and a little alcohol come to mind. The taste is then very chocolaty, complemented by some caramel, vanilla and leather. This remains the case in the short finish. It is an honest rum from Colombia that is suitable as an easy sipper without great expectations.
Review by PeixeGato
Medium-bodied with a nutty flavor. Some charred barrel notes. Reminds me of bourbon.
Review by heckto🥃
A good rum. Caramel and chocolate on the nose. Less sweet on the palate than expected: smoky chocolate, woody and vanilla. I am positively surprised. Somewhat short finish. Still a clear recommendation to buy.
Review by HenryL
Great sipper for a relaxed evening! Very beginner-friendly, nice and fruity and sweet. The cooler Zacapa!
Review by Nicofr
An entry-level "Spanish style" rum. Not very complex and not very good. The aromas of vanilla and banana are present but not necessarily well integrated with the alcohol. A rum that is a bit different from other rons you can find on the market but really not my thing.
Review by Anonymous
Hechicera is a molasses rum from Colombia's Caribbean coast. It is distilled in a continuous column at the Casa Santana distillery in Barranquilla. It was then aged by maestro ronero Giraldo Mituoka Kangana (of Japanese origin), using the solera system. This involves a complex blend of rums aged from 12 to 21 years. The older rums "educate" the younger ones throughout the maturation process. This rum, made exclusively from bourbon barrels, is bottled without any additives or colorants.
Review by Godspeed
Not bad at all, even a little better than it deserves to be.
Review by Decky Hicks Doughty
On the nose, it's quite mild. Vanilla, wood and cocoa up front with coffee and subtle orange peel towards the end. The palate hits you with spice firstly. Like a chilli has touched your tongue but without missing a beat it moves to dark chocolate and woody notes then begins to drift into the taste of good cappuccino, with extra sugar. On the finish those cappuccino notes linger. No complaints there. The spiciness at the start of the palate loses this rum points for me and, although nice beyond that, it doesn't wow me.
Review by Charlotte & Richard
C only. A bit sweet for R. Plummy, fruity, a bit toffee, but some how light and subtle
Review by rum_sk
Notes of charred oak barrel, vanilla, dark chocolate, cocoa. Little bit of spiciness at the back and overall, a robust full body. Biggest let down is the 👃 which is very flat in comparison with the taste and a little bit of alcoholic odour as well as taste, so the alcohol is not optimally incorporated.
Review by Kéké
Very sweet taste, quite light, caramel and we find the woody and slightly spicy side of the nose.
Review by Oggy
Best on the rocks. More pronounced vanilla, fresh, spicy, smell of chocolate, coffee, caramel. Cocoa on the nose, grilled, even roasted almond.

Review by Gregor
Too wrixb and characterless
Review by kenneth
Top value for money. Sharp and full flavor. Tastes like more.
Review by Henry Davies
An easy drinking Spanish style rum. No idea of the Provence or real age but it serves a purpose. Light and inoffensive nose with some alcoholic notes alongside cocoa and milk chocolate. The mouth is better, some milky caramel sweetness and light coffee and spice, ending with more leather and roasted coffee notes. A light and short finish. Solid but not memorable and certainly underpowered in the current age

Review by rara67
Good value for money, a small decent pleasure.
Review by Adam Rajchert
I'm disappointed, lots of tannins, oak extinguishes all the interesting elements of this rum. I can't like it but many might enjoy it. Smell: Oak, saltiness, banana chips, bananas, vanilla, toffee. Taste: Vanilla, lots of barrel, yellow tropical fruits, pear, almonds, chocolate, more vanilla, papaya, papaya seeds, metallic aftertaste. Finish: Oak, tannins, vanilla, banana chips.
Review by TheCelticRumFan
Nose: Quite woody, nice sweetness, some fruitiness comes through, hints of banana or plantain. Mouth: It matches the nose well and there's a lovely burst of the fruity sweetness coming through. Feels very well rounded. Finish: Mild burn that comes in short waves. Quite spicy on the tongue that hangs on for quite a while. But the fruitiness is still memorable. Great rum all round. Nothing intense or wildly complex about it, but it's a quality sipper for the price
Review by Kieron Wood
Delicious this what to expect ffrom a medium to dry rum delicate balance that is awsome The distillery I'd very close the chest ablut if this rum is dosed but it's certainly a interesting one
Review by AlexM
Somewhat reserved on the nose, with wood and dried fruit aromas. On the palate then very mild and as unobtrusive as on the nose, this time more barrel and chocolate in the foreground. Finish relatively short. Overall a very mild, pleasant rum that goes less in the extravagant fruity direction but rather in the mild, discreet, woody, chocolaty direction. And all that without sugar and coloring, really fair for the price.
Review by Christophe Milot
Particularly lively and dry, without additives or added sugar, aged in bourbon casks, this complex expression develops gradual notes of caramel and orange peel on the nose, followed by an explosion of bright and distinctive flavors of tobacco and roasted coffee that announce a smooth finish.

Review by Benjamin Lng
Good rum to finish a meal, soft notes of coffee/vanilla on the nose. On the palate it has a rather good aromatic palette, not too sweet, very good rum for beginners (like me), maybe lacking complexity and alcoholic strength for the more experienced.
Review by primus
Interesting rum, the nose promises a diverse, fruity palette; unfortunately the taste does not fulfill the promise and sinks into woody. All in all a solid rum to try, but not a bottle I'd have to show anyone.
Review by Peter Škabla
Sweet, smooth begginer friendly rum.

Ostrý alkoholický koniec, priemer
Review by Marc 48531
Pleasant nose with sweet, mild aromas of vanilla, caramel, cocoa, and a hint of orange. On the palate, nicely chocolaty with a transition into coffee notes that remain present until the finish. Not very complex, but very tasty. If cocktails call for a rum with these existing flavors, it will definitely work well. Solid rum at a reasonable price, which can also be served to spirits-savvy beginners.
Review by Motte
More exciting than most other representatives of the Spanish style I have tasted in this price range. Sweet, pleasant, with notes of coffee, lightly roasted nuts, milk chocolate and a hint of light tobacco. Unfortunately a bit too diluted to give a better rating.
