When you buy a bottle of this excellent white rum, you will notice it actually as a slight yellow tinge (something on the line of reposado tequilas), because it has been aged for three years in oak barrels before bottling, but unlike other brands, the color has not been charcoal filtered out. I commend this, because the filtration takes away part of the flavor, and why pretend something that's not true (both coloring aged rums with caramel and filtering so called white rum is a form of deception. Let the color stay natural!). Some may complain that it can affect color of cocktails that call for perfectly white rum, I say let them complain.

On the nose, you will get a faint, warming, pleasant fruity.

The taste is where this rum shines, though. Clean, round, smooth, creamy, with just a hint of molasses sweetness, it is actually sippable. Compare it to the kerosene and metallic notes of Bacardi so called, erhm, erhm "Superior", and you will soon find out which rum is actually superior.

There is actually a short, pleasant, warming finish. For a white, briefly aged rum, this humble fellow clearly outperforms.

By the way, it's the original, Cuban version of the rum, manufactured in Cuba, not the version stolen by a mafia family backed by the US government (for that one, google "Bacardi, hooch, petrol, disgusting"). This original version is unavailable in the USA due to a self-inflicted American embargo, so if you whether you are a progressive Yank, or bible-thumping, Trump-electing redneck from the south, and you are holding a bottle of this, please contact your nearest NSA operated secret torture chamber to make an appointment where a highly trained information extraction professional will find out all about how you obtained this illegal and clearly peace-endangering substance. Shame on you, citizen!

God mixer rom. Kan ikke anbefales at drikke ren, heller ikke med is.

standard rum für drinks wie zb. mojito, daiquiri, cocoloco.... mit diesem rum kann man nicht viel falsch machen..

Pur aufgrund seines "medizinischen" Geschmacks kaum zu genießen, in einfachen Mixen (z. B. Mojito) aber schwierig zu toppen. Kaum zu glauben aber wahr.

Not a rum useful for much aside from cocktails but that it is very good for.

Not a sipper obviously but as mixer it is perfect. It has flavour unlike bacardi and far superior in my opinion.

Hlavne do miešaných drinkov ale aj na samotné vypitie má svoju charakteristiku. Lepšie ako biely ale v mixe najlepší.

Some people say it fits well with some cocktails but as a pure rum I can not appreciate it. In that case I prefer a basic rum or the more expensive Havana Club Seleccion De Maestros.
It surely does not fit a Cuba Libre but is slightly better with fruit juice

Sweet, smooth and subtle. Very nice to drink straight, even for a clear rum.
