Ingenio Manacas Extra Anejo

My favorite rum style is aged Spanish rums, so it shouldn't surprise me that Spain produces great Spanish rums!

Many thanks to Joola69 for bringing me a bottle from Mexico!

This has a wonderful sweet nose, which smells and tastes of vanilla, butterscotch, caramel, hazel nuts, chocolate, and sherry. A REALLY nice rum!

Nice story, nice taste, not as sweet like most in this price area. Got it for 26€.

An appropriately sweet taste, really not too much. The history of this rum supposedly dates back to days of Cuban Revolution when a few rum-filled casks were recovered and transported back to Jerez in the southern Spain. Nowadays, the initial 5-years of the maturation process happens in the Caribbean (in Panama, Venezuela and the Dominican Republic ageing in casks that previously contained Cuban rum), while the 3-years finish is completed in used local Jerezian sherry-wine barrels. Sounds very complex and the taste is such indeed.

jemná vůně, nijak nepraští přes nos. lehký vůně ořechů a koření
chut vytříbená bez výrazných dominancí.
nepalí vůbec po alkoholu. skvěle hřeje.

jasná volba pokud nemáte rádi ovocné nebo silné rumy.

Great rum, not to harsh in the alcohol and not too soft.

Le dejan mucho olor y sabor alcohólico. Tiene sabor a Jerez pero difícil tomarse solo, con coca cola mejora un poco.

Chiar dacă are doar 38%alc., acest rom ușor amărui este plăcut, gustul destul de bogat dar fără aftertaste deosebit. Arome multiple, predominant vanilie și ciocolată neagră.

An interesting rum, a lot of vannila and wine flavour. Not bad but is not my style.

Nice one.. Will probably stay in my cabinet. A bit thin in the taste.. But the cherries note will make it fun to have and something to long for.

A nice semi sweet, slightly dry and woody rum. Somewhat earthy notes of caramel, vanilla and hazel nuts. Nice sipper
