Po dříve představeném Abuelo Añejo, což byl 5 let starý rum z produkce firmy Varela Hermanos S.A. si představíme o dvě třídy vyzrálejší Abuelo 12y. Mezi nimi se v portfoliu značky nachází ještě Abuelo 7y. Zraje v sudech z bílého dubu a nevyrábí se z melasy, jako Añejo, ale z panenské šťávy cukrové třtiny. Některé zahraniční zdroje uvádějí, že sudy, ve kterých zraje, jsou po whisky a bourbonu.

Alkohol: 40 %
Původ: Panama
Aroma: Tak tohle je originální, vůně je výrazná, s tóny cedrové dýhy, do které se balí doutníky, kůže, ořechy, tabák, rozinky, staré dřevo a dokonce mi evokuje kostel, něco ve stylu starého nábytku. (92 b)
Chuť: Chuť je příjemně nasládlá, velmi lahodná, přitom excelentně jemná, i v ústech jako bych cítil aroma kůže. Dochuť je přímo skvělá, stále se měnící, v závěru zemitá. (94 b)
Shrnutí: Tak tohle je pro mě opravdový skvost a velké překvapení z Panamy. Abuelo není ani nějak přehnaně sladký, ani nepůsobí tak těžkotonážně, jako Zapaca 23y, je to spíš jeho protipól. Je udivující, kolik zajímavých vůní a chutí se skrývá v tak jemném rumu.

Bottle: Normal bottle, nothing fancy 0,5/1
Colour: Dark amber
Aroma: Some vanilla. 1/2
Taste: Nice and smooth. Something fruity in there. Maybe too sweet for me. I don't recall much difference from 7yo 4/5
Aftertaste: There is something I don't like 1,5/2
With this rum and probably whole Abuelo collection I have problem - sometimes I really love this rum and sometimes I have to force myself to finishing the glass. I assume it depends on my mood and what I have eaten that day but still I never know what to think about these rums.

Discovered this on a trip to Panama City. An inexpensive good sipper.

If you tasted the 7 year old one and drink this one you might think: Yup, it needed longer to sit in the barrel. Absolutly smooth and no burn, tastefull and not to sweet. Also the value you get for the price is downright criminal if you compare it to others in its league.

While it’s not a bad rum, the smell burns from alcohol and it’s wuite sweet. Personally I think there are better options for this price tag.

A very good and tasty rum, honest twelve-year aging has done its positive work.

My first experience with aged Panamanian rum. Very much enjoyed it with a big ice cube or as an old fashioned

My favorite rum. Came out on top in a blind tasting with friends against some highly rated and more expensive rums. I don't know where to find it near me. Got it in duty free coming home from Costa Rica

As its the most reviewed rum on the site and I did a side by side comparison.... this is the twin of Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva. strongly recommended! Enjoy.
