Centenario 30-Year

It was very good, but I expected more when compared to similar priced and taste rums.

Amazing Carmel vanilla aroma and a smooth snipping finish.

En super rom, med en lidt røget smag.
En af de bedste rom jeg har nogensinde har fået.

complex, fruity and dry, with some edges. some spicy notes.

Lot 21 266 7491 a beautiful dark amber spirit initially enjoyed neat. The nose picked up a bit of alcohol on the pour mellowing sweetly with time. Smooth on first sip with sweet rich molasses on the tongue dissipating to a dry finish. It begs to be sipped again. The nose improves nicely with each sip. Priced higher than an every man’s rum I wanted this to be a stellar 10 but the dry finish is more than this guy likes. Purists may frown but I tried dropping an ice cube in, softening the rich sweetness and bringing a hint of caramel to the palate and subduing the dry finish. I much prefer it with an ice cube. Truly an outstanding rum. The price point says I shall enjoy it in moderation.

Caramel aroma with touch of barrel; cocoa and caramel in body but short.

Doesn't get any better than this. Full of flavour. A bit soft on the nose. Not on the sweet side.

This rum truly has it all. I get fruit on the front, mainly apricots and banana but not over ripe. Then the sweet caramel molasses comes followed by a nice spiced tobacco. It honestly finishes like a cigar dipped in cognac. It’s ultra smooth from start to finish and sweet the entire way through. I honestly don’t prefer sweet rums but this one is truly great regardless of my own preference and I can certainly appreciate the quality and skill that it took to craft this rum.

You need to sit in a large cushioned leather chair when drinking this rum. Maybe a cigar in your hand (lit or unlit) lol.

Picked up at the airport in Costa Rica with the 25 and 20 and love it!
