Cartavio Selecto 5-Year

Nice smooth rum, I found the Cartavio Superior to be a bit dry and woody and the Cartavio Black to be nice but very sweet and fruity. The Cartavio Selecto strikes a nice balance between the two. Smooth with a sweet fruitiness at the start it fades to a nice carmel finish. Great rum especially for 32 soles (~$10) when in Peru.

Interesting flavour with some cinnamon, caramel and oak, but has a slightly harsh finish expected at this price range

First time trying rum from peru...different for sure...a little sweet..fruity...dry going down..strong alcohol end...probably wont buy it again

Buen ron para mezclar, suave y muy agradable cuando está combinado. Solo es ligeramente dulce pero se siente mucho el alcohol. Eso sí, es muy superior a rones de su categoría y de mayor precio.

Es un ron que a pesar de ser muy joven presenta un sabor y textura increible, pudiendo engañar a cualquiera.
Esto demuestra el gran nivel que esta alcanzando Ron Cartavio, ya que empiezan a mandar con referentes de excelente calidad.

Buen ron para combinar, superior a muchos de mayor precio, solo hay que saber al combinarlo bajarle ese extra de dulce que tiene

One of the only Peruvian rums I've had, I didn't know what to expect. I got a lot of ethanol on the nose, but the taste was much smoother. Unfortunately, I suspect some additives, as there's a bit of a saccharine flavor. This probably mixes well, especially with citrus, but the aftertaste makes it less than great as a sipper for the price. Hints of chocolate make me wonder about a cocktail that played that aspect up... but I'm not going to spend so much on a bottle to experiment myself!

Måske den bedste mørke rom til en dark and stormy. Den koster lidt, men er pengene værd.

Keeps Cartavio's family tradition: very same to older 12-year brother, but more sweet and spirituous. Excellent for it's price

Ne příliš složitý rum.
Vůně, chuť: vanilka, dub, lehce koření, ovoce, čokoláda, ostrý alkohol.
5,5/10
