Cartavio XO

Romain m à fait découvrir ce merveilleux rhum. Un goût de noisette de chêne, il est doux complexe et long en bouche. Vraiment un wow.

Wooow the bottles shape the colour of this rum woow what an presentation and it doesn't stop there. The nose the taste so sweet honey vanilla neat fruity doesn't overpower in any whays. Its an very beautiful Rum whit the presentation ant taste all in all 10 p

Ron Carvatio XO comes in a classic bottle with a wooden cork. The rum is delivered in an tin box (picture). Hight class!

At first you smell some alcohol but when the rum have been resting for a while in the glass the aroma explodes with toffee, caramel and vanilla. One of the best aromas.

In mouth you get vanilla, caramel and fruit. You also get some spice in a very nice way. It is a very smooth and well balanced rum.

The aftertaste is long and sweet with some spice.

This is a favourite that I truly can recommend. The price is a bit high but it only costs half as much as Diplomático Ambassador Selection and I think this rum is almost in the same class.

Duft af vanilie og smag af karamel og mange andre skønne noter, som giver en lang og behagelig eftersmag. Virkelig en af mine favoritter. Jeg kan godt forstå, at den har vundet prisen 2 gange for verdens bedste rom.

Sugar: 26 GPL.
The 2 year search for this one was worth it. Cartavio XO has a taste profile that is similar to another Peruvian rum (Millonario XO), however I give the slight edge to Cartavio XO on the basis that it is not as sweet.
Banana, raisins, toffee, walnuts, nutmeg, and oak are all present and boldly accounted for in taste and aroma. Wonderful aroma, nice balance of flavours and a very smooth rum with a lasting finish on your palate.

Smooth as all get out, definitely vanillas and caramel. This sits next to the El Dorado 21 and the Angostura Batch #2.

I Can understand why this won the title of Best rum In 2016

este es un rum que por su precio y calidad puede ser de diario con notas avainillada y suave sabor en boca al conjunto a un cohiba esplendio es para pasar una noche excepcional

Peru dont mess around, quality pairs with the aesthetics of the bottle. it's a perfect rum for drinkers with sweeter palates, warming, caramel and vanilla notes, strongly recommended to anyone who likes this type of rum.

Des qu'on le met en bouche, le gout licoreux rempli completement la bouche, delicieux

I got a bottle from Peru with no prior warning. I opened and knew it was special. I didnt think I'd find anything to sway me from my opinion that Diplomatico Exclusiva was the best I'd tasted. One ice cube or neat does the trick. Deep developing flavours to savour. Its truly special.
Can't recommend Cartavio XO too highly. Working out how to get another bottle is the hard part. Not available in Australia.

I love this rum. I have to order it from out of state because WA doesn't carry it. It's worth the shipping charge. It's smooth, has nice caramel over tones, molasses back and just the right amount of sweetness.

Best rum I've ever had. So smooth and perfect to drink on the rocks.

I have somewhat of a sweettooth and mostly like the sweet stuff.. When i saw the color my hopes where getting up.. When i felt the scent It was a bit to much ethanol but hey.. It will fade when in the tumbler for a while.. In th mouth there where some things happening.. The taste is thick.. Like sipping syrup.. It has a bit of a kick in it.. The taste i a bit high in the tennines for me.. But the complexit balances it out.. This is some real good shit for a leight evening..

If you like QRM 30 and Esclavo XO you will also love this.

One of the best rums I have ever tastes, and at a fair price.

This just appeared at my local liquor store for the first time, so I grabbed a bottle. I was VERY impressed with the taste based on the reasonable cost ($69.99 K&L Wines 2015).

Though I don't count it in my scoring, this is one of the nicest bottles in my collection. A beautiful shape, and a beautiful color (see rumratings photo).

Smells of vanilla, spice, sweet molasses, honey, and hazelnut; the taste is equally nice. I like this a lot!

this one is something special. uniqe package with well balanced spice-sweet liquer taste after vanilla a litle bit caramel. I wish buy a bottle very long time

This is a sweet rum. If you like Plantation, Angostura, Diplomatico, etc., you should also like this one very much. Flavor notes that can immediately be appreciated include nuts, cinnammon, clove, and vanilla.
The flavor is strong and really good; easy to enjoy in any form.

This was a very pleasant sipping experience, nice flavour and warmth. I will be picking up some of this for special events.

Although not from carribean, this is an exceptional great rum. Full bodied, dark and just good to drink

...Ron Millonario 15. Thats all I can say. :-) Very "spicy", dark, long taste. Interesting!

V mém případě se těžko bude hledat něco víc, nasládlý, luxusní moučník

sød, varm og lige til at gå til, minder lidt om Millonario XO. Virkelig en god dram.
