Little disappointed for that price
Top tier rum with a strong vanilla ice cream flavor
Was expecting more. Kind of thought I was in trouble when I opened the bottle and caught a sherry scent. I let it sit in a glass for 20 minutes hoping for the best but nope, too much of a sherry taste and burnt sugar. Too high of a price. Too sweet. Had in my wish list for a while and the anticipation of trying this rum out weighed the experience of actually trying it. I am certainly done with Abuelo as this is my second Abuelo rum and neither has been impressive.
I expected a lot from this one, because of price tag and good base lines they produce. Its really good rum, but cant compete in his price field. The wow factor was not there. It is more fruity style, compared to reserva 12y. I would purchase a shot again, if i will have that opportunity, but its dissapointment.
Very full bodied rum. Nice taste, super smooth. Just a little heavy if your drinking in warm weather.
This is a premium Panamanian rum - the pinnacle of the Abuelo brand. Centuria is a blend of rums aged up to 30 years, which was prepared for the 100th anniversary of rum production by the Varela family in Panama. The rums were aged in American white oak barrels and then bottled at 40% ABV strength.
Bottle: Luxury, put in a wooden case.
Color: Dark Amber.
Nose: Very pleasant with elements of baked fruit, caramel and wood. Citrus, tobacco and pepper are also noticeable.
Taste: Creamy and very smooth. Not as sweet as I expected, but not dry either. It is just right and goes well with the rum. You can taste caramel, dark chocolate, raisins, vanilla, stone fruits (apricots, cherries) and also burned oak and pepper.
Aftertaste: Medium-long.
Finish: A very well balanced rum in both taste and aroma. The price tag is higher, but well deserved in my opinion.
Rating: 10/10
Mellow, smooth, and delicious. This is meant to be sipped neat. In my top 3 of all time to date!

I read a lot of hype on this rum online as well as the ratings here.
I decided to spend the $125 making this the most expensive rum I've purchased thus far.
With all the hype and for the asking price I expected a high standard.
I was disappointed.
I wish to make it clear...this is not...I repeat NOT a bad rum whatsoever.
It's just not a rum worthy of a $125 price tag. $40-$50 USD would be much more reasonable.
Although it has a pleasant aroma and looks great in the snifter with a deep mahogany color, the flavor is...well...lacking.
Surprising it's not nearly as smooth as I expected. In fact it's rather harsh. This is an expensive mixing rum in my opinion, not a sipper.
One source says only 200 cases of this rum were imported into the United States...another source says only 3000 bottles were produced.
However the ready availability of this rum makes me wonder if the bottle I have is a "second generation" Centuria. I read several reviews on this rum and what I am tasting in my bottle does not even come close to resembling what is described in this reviews. Makes me wonder....
As I said, it's not a bad rum...it hits you with a initial mixture of sweetness and vanilla which receives a peppery kick. A nice strong warmth hits the throat leaving a toffee/vanilla finish. But it has an strong oak bitterness about it that reminds me more of a younger, maybe 3-yr, rum rather than one that is a blend of older rums. What gives? I just cannot give what I am trying more than a 7.
