Costa Rican Ron Centenario brings this 9-year-old Conmemorativo to the line-up. Aged in American white oak casks, it's a balanced, approachable, and straightforward rum with plenty of rewarding caramel notes.
Toasted coconut and oaky vanilla, with drizzles of dark caramel, and fresh cherries in the distance.
Very good Costa Rican Rum which is full of flavour and well balanced. Outclasses the well-known brands in its price range in my opinion. Great with cola too.
The flavour isn't bad, especially considering the price, but it's rough. Definitely a sipping rum rather than a mixer, but probably one to sip after a few neat glasses of something a bit easier drinking
Ron Centenario makes some truly beautiful rum. Their XX Anos is one of the best I have ever enjoyed, just came across this bottling, and gave it a try since the XX Anos is not available. I am not disappointed, Ron Centenario lives up to its reputation for premier rum. It is a very smooth & easy sipping rum, best enjoyed neat, or with a single ice cube, very tiny splash of water, or a citrus twist. You wouldn't ruin this rum with mixers, it's a quality rum meant to be enjoyed in its entirety. It has a nice mellow caramel undertone, vanilla, mallow, and a hint of spice on the finish. For the price, this easily beats the competition, and is a definite rum to add to the collection.
