A great Nicaraguan rum from Flor de Caña. Great as a mixing rum, and it makes a fantastic cocktail. It is aged in 180 litre white oak barrels, which are only used once before maturation - which gives the oak flavour more prominence.
Butterscotch, brown sugar, almond butter, dried figs and red apple.
Lovely suttle tasting and smooth rum. Nice to sip, but perfect for a mixer.
I must admit I do enjoy drinking this neat from time to time but it's got nothing on its 18 year older sibling for quality and robustness in flavour and palate. I like indeed.
I bought this bottle and my friends loved it! Delicious on the rocks!
Really smooth rum from Nicaragua. perfect to enjoy it with ginger ale & orange peel.
Not quite smooth enough to work as a sipping rum, though drinkable over ice. Makes a great basic dacquiri, and does a really good rum Old Fashioned (a sugar cube and a few dashes of bitters stirred with ice and a slice of orange). My favourite is to use in a rum Negroni - 1 part each of rum, Campari and sweet vermouth, stirred with ice and orange slice. I know, but trust me, give it a go.
