Centenario 25-Year

Nice complexity, smooth and bold with a perfect balance sweetness and wonderful aroma

Beautiful dark amber color. Aroma just too much alcohol even after 20 minutes and swirling glass periodically. This is a very sweet rum with slight but absolutely tolerable burn (maybe less with ice but I prefer to drink all rums neat). It is not as complex as I would have hoped as the sweetness seems to dominate. Nonetheless, the quality does stand out but for less $$$ I will take zafra 21 year, el pasador gran reserve or Appleton 12 year tasks cask over this. Don't get me wrong, it is a really good rum but just over priced.

Very complex and fruity. Sweet, but not too heavy. The price is a bit too high compared to others with a similar quality of taste. Good if you can get it at a discount.

It is sweet and enjoyable, but nothing special in my opinion. Too much sugar, not much depth

Tasted at Laka Lono on 12/20/21. Ruby red amber color. Aroma of bananas and acetone. Huge sweetness. Caramel, banana, marshmellow. Mild palate.
UPDATE: 11/6/22. Sampled thanks to Greg. Really delicious with lots of dark fruits- raisins, plums, dates. Leather and tobacco. No burn at all. Raising my rating from 8 to 9.

From tasting set I prefer 20 first, but after few more sips 25 set off.
Even sweeter, much more complex, woodiness fade away. Good hint form Costarica.

It is fantastic! Absolute buy for its price!
Harmonic taste, sweetness and a little oak, some orange. Nothing too much still, a strong taste, one which you''ll remember.

The rum got some nice vanilla, woody and some sweetness in the aroma. First sip was a little firm with some subtile sweetness, a bit oak flavour and slight burn. The second sip was very smooth. In summary Its a nice accessible smooth rum with good balanced flavours.

Sadly tried this in 2022 while in Costa Rica. Was hoping for a nice sipping rum but taste is too harsh for a nice sipping rum. Mix only

Um rum de muito bom nível, engrandecido ainda mais pelo que custa. Muito equilibrado na doçura e acidez, uma delícia, difícil de não ir ao segundo copo.
