Aroma visualization from community tastings
Secha de la Silva
Sip it slow and neat, or lean on it as a dessert pour after dinner — this Guatemalan is soft, round and lightly sweet, all coffee, cocoa, vanilla and caramel. Several tasters admit it "hasn't got much to do with rum" and reads more like a flavored, sweetened liqueur, but most still find it easy and tasty. It opens up over a few minutes.
The community says- Coffee and cocoa
- Easy sipping
- But: Added sugar

How does Secha de la Silva taste?
Aggregated from 37 community reviews.
Sweet coffee-cocoa sipper, more liqueur than rum Members are warm but honest: a pleasant, sweet coffee-and-chocolate sipper that drinks more like a flavored liqueur than a traditional rum. Little length or complexity, but easy and enjoyable.

Review by Pablo
Très bon rhum du Guatemala bon pour commencer vos dégustation de se pays producteurs de Rhum plutôt riche sans trop vous embarquez dans des goûts trop compliqué à déchiffrer.
Review by Jonas Lechevallier
Un rhum qui parait assez rond et doux de prime abord, sans réel intérêt, mais qui libère ses arômes au fil des minutes. On a alors accès à des notes de vanille, de caramel et de cacao au fur et à mesure de la dégustation en gardant un goût doux et légèrement sucré ! Siroter et apprécier très lentement ce rhum qui est très riche et très généreux malgré une première impression qui ne fait pas forcément l'unanimité.
Review by Dam Cstr
Bonne odeur de café que l on retrouve en bouche se boit bien, ne pas s attendre à un chef d oeuvre mais un spiritueux sympa aromatisé pour un apero ou un digestif
Review by Mathieu Zo
Une gradation dans le goût avec une évolution de saveurs: tout bonnement exceptionnel !
