I like all of the Flor de Cana products, they are solid and tend to be good values for their prices and over deliver. The Gran Reserve 7 is not my favorite FdC product but it is my favorite value from FdC. It sips well if in cold temps or hot and the price for the quality is hard to match.
Bottle: Tasteful appearance, old school charm.
Color: Light brown.
Bottle Smell: Vanilla comes first, some sweetness, the alcohol, and a hint of oak.
Glass: It doesn't change much except to lose some of the sweetness and show its age characters and become a solid oak aged rum.
Taste: Smooth, good oil levels allow you to taste the rum aged oak the label tells you to expect, typical caramel, vanilla hints and a not unpleasant throat.
This is a solid, good quality rum that is not far below in quality than bottles sold for more. This is my go to rum.

Lekkere rum, maar doe mij de Havana Club 7 maar.
For me the 7 years old Flor de Cana is drinkable only mixed up, because he tastes in the finish like cheap hooch. Except the finish it is ok.

Nothing that sets the world on fire, but by the same token, there's not much wrong with it either. Smooth enough, but lacks kick and length so over all is a little bit bleh!

Flor de Caňa je firma z Nikaraguy, založená v roce 1937 společností Compañía Licorera de Nicaragua.V překladu Flor de Caña znamená "květ cukrové třtiny".
Měl jsem k ochutnávce zakoupenou lahev Grand Reserve starou 7 let, která se u nás prodává asi za 390,-Kč.
Rum se prodává v elegantní lahvi.Vyrábí se z melasy a sedm let zrání v dubových sudech o objemu 180 litrů, které byly předtím jen jednou použity, se projevilo pěknou mahagonovou barvou.
Aroma: Ve vůni dominuje alkohol, cítíte také trochu karamel.
Chuť: Na jazyku najdete jakousi máslová příchuť, opět karamel, snad i trocha papřovosti, bohužel pro mě, chuť celkově není ničím zajímavá, řekl bych až fádní a od sedmiletého rumu jsem opravdu čekal něco více.
Dokončení je alkoholově teplé, trochu kořenité.
Shrnutí: Suma sumárum se z tohoto kousku vyklubalo mé první rumové zklamání.
Hodnotím 65 bodů, nemůžu si pomoct, po lepší kvalitě se u této firmy budu případně muset porozhlédnout ve vyšší kategorii, třeba 12y za 745,-, nebo Gold 18 za 1333,-.

Fellow rum enthusiasts may not agree with me, but I enjoy Flor de Cana in mixed drinks, especially Mojitos. I get such great joy ordering up a Flor de Cana Mojito at a bar when it's available. Depending on the bartender, you may be reminded that traditional Mojitos are made with white rum. Never fear to have something new.
Flor de Cana is smooth, smells great, slightly boozy, and can costs about $30 depending on where you do. If you are willing to pay $30 for a dark rum, there are other good options depending on if you want to sip or mix. I would advise you to spend no more than that on Flor de Cana.

I can enjoy a glass of this during a hot summers evening with an ice cube!

Okay to start I like the bottle of Flor De Cana, its simple but that is what makes it nice so its a good addition to a collection. Flor De Cana is a nice amber color in the bottle. Opening it smells like raspberries to be honest, raspberries some faint cask smell and that's about it, no real alcohol smell. In a glass it smells more like alcohol and that's about it. So sipping is rough its harsh upfront bite and then stops and then gives a hello im back again bite. Hard to zone in on a flavour when being kicked in the balls then helped back up and kicked right again by the guy who helped you. Its very dry alcohol, the cask taste is there but not in the extent of woodsiness that I enjoy. Some sweetness but nothing bold. In all honest its a super simple rum. A harsh simple rum, wouldn't recommend sipping. in diet coke it keeps much of its simpleness but has a nice amount of sweetness with a some bitterness in the aftertaste (which some could enjoy). I would rate this rum higher but there are better options for its price that have far surpassed it in taste smoothness and complexity.
