Abuelo Gran Reserva 12-Year

This one is really close to Floor de Cana with extra sweeteness. I tasted a sample but I would buy a bottle.. It is a good rum!

Denne rom er smagt til Whisky messe 2022 i Kolding. Fin god smag..

What the title says.
The rum is a good experience from start to finish. This is what you think of when you think sipping rum.

I was hopeful about this rum. I'm quite loyal to specific selections that I know that I enjoy. However, I understand the importance of venturing out and trying new expressions. After seeing a significant quantity of positive feedback regarding this rum, I admit that I felt hopeful for something impressive. What I was met with instead, was a rum that isn't bad, but does not live up to other rums that I've come to enjoy. On the nose I got ethanol followed by brown sugar, vanilla, and banana. On the palate, I tasted brown sugar and caramel, with a vanilla finish and modest ethanol burn through the nostrils. In all honesty, I would have been happier having paid $10-15 less than it's retail price ($40 where I am) as I can think of numerous other rums at this price point, and cheaper that exceed this rum. Overall, decent rum but overpriced for what it is.

skvely rum! Mne strasne pripomina RON ZACAPA 23 ale trochu menej sladky - u nas za skoro polovicnu cenu.
Rum ma skvelu vonu - sladku s naznakmi melasy a vanilky. V chuti je velmi jemny a vobec nepali - je citit citrusy, vanilku, karamel a v zavere cim sa lisi od RON ZACAPA 23 aj trochu dubu. Tento rum je absolutne vhodny na celovecerne popijanie!

Vo svojej kategorii je to fantasticky rum za priaznivu cenu

I was thrilled by the rating here, so I tried it, the price was great. The first impression is positive, but maybe I had the wrong batch, I smell the cherry ointment in the aftertaste, and it's almost vomiting. The wife confirmed again. I finished the bottle with a lot of self-denied. I may give Abuel another chance, I plan to have a version of two oaks, or XV Tawny port cask, we'll see ...

Nadchlo mě zdejší hodnocení, tak jsem jej zkusil, cena super. První dojem kladný, ale snad jsem měl špatnou várku, v dochuti cítím višňovou mast, a to je skoro na zvracení. Manželka opět potvrdila. Dopil jsem s velkým sebezapřením. Abuelu možná dám ještě šanci, v plánu mám verzi dvou dubů, nebo XV Tawny port cask, uvidíme...

Okay, so the experience still fresh, I just opened the bottle (btw, I went for this rum after the ratings here, so I was really curios if I can find a great rum just based on other peoples opinion, and I did). It has a very strong coffey-caramelly smell and taste, I am really enjoying it, will try other Abuelos in the future.

Rum se nevyrábí z melasy, ale z panenské šťávy cukrové třtiny.

Aroma: Kůže, skořice, malinko tabáku a kouře, perník
Chuť: Velmi jemná, karamelová s hřebíčkem
Dozvuk: Opět lehce hřebíčková a skořicová, nakonec sušené ovoce (višně).
Sladkost: 1/3
Velmi povedený rum základní řady za super cenu. Krásná vůně, fajn středně dlouhý dozvuk a sladkost v limitu.

Noter vanilje, kaffe og karamel. Den har duft af sukkerrør og appelsin og smag, der er krydret og fyldig med en god balance.

Tropical fruits and caramel all over, with chocolate, citrus and moccha. Some wood, dust and malt make it a tad better than most spanish style aged rums imo.
