Flor de Caña Gran Reserva 7-Year

This is easy to drink on ice or mixed. Personally I prefer something more robust for mixing such as a dark or spiced rum, so unsurprisingly I would say it gets a bit lost, but it certainly doesn't taste bad. As a more stand out point, this reminded me of the (less sweet) taste of whiskey, not my thing usually but here it works, and to my friends who prefer whiskeys this is very much their preference from the cabinet.

Good sweetness, a little rough around the edges. Some citrus peel, balanced by vanilla. I bought it to mix but wound up liking it straight.

This rum for me was just okay. In general I didn't get a lot more out of the nose than booziness, with one occasion noting a floral fragrance. The taste was mainly slightly woody with an occasional subtle sweetness / caramel. Overall though, I found this boozy for some reason. It was the most consistent thing I noted through the bottle, both with ice and without. I probably won't buy this particular bottle again with all the other choices out there.

A really enjoyable rum that can be drank on the rocks or with your favorite mix. Hints of honey and dark chocolate but not overly sweet. Highly recommended especially with the reasonable price.

I remain unimpressed by this distillery. I drank this side by side a 7 year old Abuelo. The Abuelo was far superior. This one is thin, no balance or complexity. Harsh with a short acrid finish. Not good.

Not my favorite Flor de Cana, but my favorite for mixing. Nice price and great flavor when mixed. Definitely one I keep in my bar.

Note: I'm a sipper. My opinion is based on sipping characteristics.

When I bought this, I honestly did not expect much. And boy was I properly impressed. This gets my personal best all-rounder award. You can have it every day and it feels just great. Nothing overwhelming, nothing overpowered, a greatly balanced sipper. And at less than half the price of the 18-year, it gives it hell of a run for its money. Excellent, truly excellent.

Mooie toegankelijke rum, iets voor beginners , en niet gezoet.

Vanilla and alcohol in aroma. Nothing too outstanding in taste, but in a good way, tastes pleasantly. Bites throat just a tiny bit. It's okay to drink straight, but probably won't be the rum that you will remember long.

This is one of my favorite rums. I thought it was a good price for the quality. I have nothing bad to say about it. It is definitely worth a try.
