Over ice or in a rum and cola is where most people put this Nicaraguan column-still rum. Expect vanilla, hazelnut, dry oak and a spicy, distinctly bourbon-leaning note, with a sharp alcohol edge that keeps it from being a smooth neat pour. Several tasters call it a decent budget mixer that's a bit thin and one-note on its own.
The community says- Good in cola
- But: Sharp neat

How does Flor de Caña 7 Años Gran Reserva taste?
Summarized by AI from community reviews.
Dry, bourbon-like everyday mixing rum Most see it as a dry, spicy weeknight mixer — fine in cola or an old fashioned, but too harsh and thin to shine neat. A few prefer the younger 4 and 5 year.

Review by Christian Rudt
My brother had never tried the bottle on the shelf, so please. The nose is still the best here, with a good hint of cognac. On the palate mainly rum raisin and somewhat thin taste. Certainly usable for a rum cola.
Review by LukaŽiga
6:On the nose it is rather well-balanced and fruity, with a light banana note that wafts over ethereal notes. It's relatively consistent, with notes faithful to this category of light molasses rums: vanilla, nuts, caramel.It's not overly full-bodied and holds up well over time. Aeration develops the roasted nuts, and this roasted side opens up to coffee. The rum has gained in darkness and bite. We retain the idea of a light rum, which has drawn all it can from the toastiness of the barrel. 5,9:On the palate, the attack is in tune with the nose, so light, it passes stealthily by, dancing on the taste buds with its ethereal quality. Nuts and wood remain suspended, never settling in. 5,7:The finish is light, with toasty wood and a few roasted spices lingering for a few moments.
Review by HenryL
Pure not so mine, nice nose but too sharp in taste. To mix but a cheap and good rum
Review by zabo
The only rum at the Christmas market that you could get at the Nicaragua stand. I had it in cocoa and grog as an update. It works there. Probably not so good neat.
Review by w00tAN
Notes from 25.04.2018: Travel souvenir from a good friend that was opened directly. Fruit and vanilla on the nose, then sweet in the mouth with some fruit and a clear alcohol note. Pure well in the cola then it goes.
Review by Rumpalumpa
I bought this bottle a few years ago in the country of origin Nicaragua. There the rum was only bottled at 37%. Back then it was the go-to rum for cola rum, or the 4-year-old. Quite alcoholic but good when mixed.
Review by Andrew Mainprice
Budget sipper
Review by lukasdrinkinghabits
Reconstructed from a note:For pure enjoyment only limitedly recommended. In the nose mainly wood, some vanilla, spice and clear alcohol. A lot of power, little depth. In the mouth, the impression is confirmed: not a sweet, rather a strong, spicy rum.In the cocktail, for what I bought it, it remains despite only 40% still present, shows its dark, spicy flavors and is happy about lime or grapefruit, harmonizes well with Cherry Brandy or Falernum, without making the liqueurs invisible.
Review by Jarrod Smith
Fairly complex column still rum. Good flavors. Spicy nuttiness. Nice finish. Ok nose. From memory not a lot more enjoyable than the four year, but a bit more complex on the flavors.
Review by Decky Hicks Doughty
A subtle nose. Vanilla and hazelnut are most present with a little wood. Sometimes floral in the background. The palate keeps the hazelnuts from the nose. The vanilla is more subtle on the palate. Alcohol quite sharp. Finish is short. The hazelnuts hang around for at least a few seconds. A little sharp and beyond that somewhat boring. Not one I'd buy.
Review by Steve the Barman
All my Tastings and Scores are purely based on “Rums under £50”. I rarely look at Rums over £50 for my YouTube.
Review by MaddenC11
A dry rum, not overly sweet with a woodyness and notes of caramel of spice. A tad bit harsh. Not a bad sipper for the price but certainly not my first choice.
Review by Buddudharma
Even thinner and more meaningless than his older brothers. Finish non-existent. Not even recommended for cocktails, way too weak and lacking expression.
Review by wrighty03
Spice much more prominent than 5yo, not as smooth as 5 too, still perfectly nice and worked well mixed.
Review by Adam Rajchert
Despite imperfections in neat sipping, it has potential as a good mixer for drinks. Once I made a very tasty muddy mojito with it. Nose: espresso, hazelnut, caramel, allspice, cinnamon, raisins, dried peaches Taste: watery, espresso, caramel, nuts, wood, alcohol, dried peaches, raisins, vanilla, nutmeg Finish: wood, spices, raisins, coffee
Review by Balu
4 and 5 years better
Review by Solidfunk
I always love Flor de Cana 7 year, even more than the 12 year. Florals and oak. A little honey. Golden amber pour. A touch of tangerine on the finish.
Review by Marcus Ekornes
An alright rum, considering the 12 year old is very similar in price, I would never reach for this again
Review by Kasper H. Daugaard
Mostly sweet rum with a decent nose. A little above an average rum. Well rounded and short but smooth finish
Review by Torsten
Goes in the vanilla-fruit direction. Slightly creamy. Overall average.
Review by Rumfreund97
Good with ice, otherwise too alcoholic for my taste.
Review by Anthony D3
A little harsh, definitely not a great rum for beginners. Would probably mix well, especially with something that can cut down on the astringency
Review by Ian Gilman
A perfectly good but not terribly unique rum. Great mixer but generally would reach for something like Hamilton 86 before this.
Review by Goodoboy30
This one is pretty good neat but really shines as a mixer.
Review by Alvaro Mateos
Too much alcohol taste. I would not buy it again

Do koly fajn, samy nič moc
Review by Sebastiaan Linssen
Not to drink neat, only as a mixer.
Review by Jakob Deiner
Solid, "clean" but also somewhat ordinary rum, relatively dry on the finish. Drinks: - Neat: 3/5 - Rum Cola: 3/5 - Rum Mule: 3/5
Review by Steve S.
For $20, you really can't beat it as a budget sipper. On ice is where this rum shines. Outside of being particularly strong with the spice notes (which is perfectly fine with me), there really isn't anything too overwhelming with the flavor profile. Sure, there are better rums out there. But, I enjoy this one as a light, easy going session rum for a bit of weeknight relaxation after a hard day's work.
Review by Gustav Al
Good for its price. Not overly expensive. Nice starting point for a novice like myself and makes for good drinks. Works with coke but also in a Painkiller and Old cuban if need be. When tasted neat however it doesn't give me that much. Smells like bourbon sure but its taste is rather underwhelming. Taste more alcoholic to me. Overall its decent for its price. Stable drinkmix-workhorse rum sort of.
Review by Shtafermo Shtafermo
Ok. Typical vanilla caramel, some nuts, some roast coffee, some banana peels... Some faint wood. Again, ok. Just ok. For the price, a lot of other better options. But once in a while I've seen it bellow 19€. At that point, cam be a good one if you're looking for the best cheap option.. But usually around 34€... Not an option at that price range...
Review by JustJack
Notes of vanilla and oak. A slight burn on the after taste. A little too harsh to drink neat, but works well as a mixer in a rum and cola or old fashioned.
