Panamanian rum from Ron Abuelo's Finish Collection,
which has been given a finishing period in Oloroso Sherry casks!
-
Taste of:
caramel, vanilla, chocolate, a lot of Cherry, sherry cask....
Another Abuelo's astounding rum, sweet, aromatic and rich Aroma.
Thank God I'm not an expert... Just been drinking rums most of my adult life and fortunately my palate is not jaded with inteligencia. Therefore I rate this a ten... wonderful aroma, wonderful aftertaste on the palate, and fabulous to share with a close friend which I did. Sip slowly straight at room temperature no ice.
Purchased a sample from www.masterofmalt.com for £6.61.
Wonderful nose on this rum sweet sherry and oak. Flavours of chocolate and raisin with a touch of cherry and oak. Very nice!
In my opinion this seemed the worst of the 3 ABUELO XV, however it's not a bad rum, only that to my taste this has a lot of finish in Sherry, and takes away the rum itself.
En mi opinión éste me pareció el peor de los 3 ABUELO XV, sin embargo tampoco es un mal ron, solo que a mi gusto este tiene mucha terminación en Jerez, y quita protagonismo al ron en sí.
N- Lush of hefty oak for up front aroma, dominant sandalwood lingers on with nutmeg and white fruits seeping thru. (19/25)
P- Burning jo-stick fragrant with tropical muskiness, sweaty ripe white fruits, tannin and moist wood. (18/25)
F- Short, compote of sourish dry citrus with under ripe fruit. Wet ligero cigar leaf and sandalwood. Highly oak oriented. (18/25)
Balanced- An mild aged rum that may be hijacked by a dominant and vigorous cask. (17/25)
Weighted Rate:- 72pt

Un rhum particulier, sans rondeur ni longueur qui rappel beaucoup les tanins.
jedine XV ktore ma trochu oslovilo bolo Tawny, ostatne nic moc. nieze by tawny bol nejaky zazrak. za tie peniaze slabota 7/10. cisto chut 7,8/10
I like my rum to have sherry, port, zinfandel, oak etc notes on it, but even I find this way way over the top. I recently had the Valdespino rum (with Valdespino being a Sherry producer, and the rum used coming from Abuela) which was no way nearly as dominated by sherry. I like Panamanian rums but I think that the standard 12yo Abuelo is the one for me as I find this too sweet.I would like to try the Cognac finish, but TBH, the overworking of this rum puts me off.
I have a very simple test as to how good a rum is - would I buy it again? The answer to that is "no".
EDIT - having had the bottle open for a few months, I have gone back to it and find it nigh on undrinkable. Such a shame as rarely have I been so disappointed by a rum.

Dark amber rum with a nose of burnt brown sugar and figs along with wet oak, tobacco and overripe cherries. A fairly deep character.
The taste is semi sweet at first and medium bodied with notes of orange, cherries, burnt sugar, oak and tobacco. It fills the entire mouth nicely with a lingering sherry finish. The sherry is perhaps a bit overpowering as others have noted, but it’s still a very nice product with character.
