Iguana Rum 70cl

Watch this ...I bought a bottle and it just disappeared 2 days ....its just so nice and smooth ...lovely soft smooth rum no mixer just could of ice cubes ...I would blame evaporation but I dint think it was !

My rum arrived yesterday and it is stunning the flavours are very smooth I had to cork it back before I kept drinking 🍸

A nice budget Rum, flavoured and sweetened, but not overly so. Vanilla is the obvious flavour, but it is not over the top like many others. very good to sip neat in this price range. 40% and great value for the money.

You have COVID if you don't think this tastes or smells like rum.

Its one of the best 5yr old rums that I've tried so far & it stays well under the radar for most. It's well balanced, flavoursome, & has enough length & smoothness to be enjoyed neat (for a youngish spirit - paying more obviously gets you more in that dept). Given the price, you won't be phased at using it with cocktails or mixers at all.

Beware of first impressions! Initially I was far from impressed with this rum. For starters it’s rather pale and looks nothing like a rum you’d get served in your local pub. Sniffing it did little to reassure me that this was, in fact, rum. Sadly, for me, worse was to come when I took a sip because I couldn’t even taste rum. The budget price had persuaded me to invest in 2 bottles; who could I give the second bottle to as a Christmas gift?????
Over the next hour I continued to sip my way through perhaps half of the double I’d originally put in my rum glass. Something weird was happening! Not only was this now smelling like rum, it was awakening my taste buds and I was thoroughly enjoying every sip. This is a very smooth and well-rounded rum, albeit not what I had expected. If this is Panamanian Rum, then bring it on.
Excellent value for money and I would rate this against several 5 & even a couple of 12 year old rums out there, that cost twice as much.

Been looking for an excellent rum at a decent price for both sipping and mixing and this one takes the prize. Lovely caramel and vanilla, demerara sugar, bit of marzipan and banana perhaps, with a rich mouthfeel. On the sweeter side but not overly sweet and wonderfully complex.

I’m a big fan of the Plantation 5 year old and I think this comes very close in terms of flavour and taste but for quite a bit cheaper. Enough going on to drink neat, too good a flavour for a mixer!

I read the reviews of this rum and thought I would go with it and try something new. Sadly this is not to my pallet. It lacks depth, flavour and texture, and is cheap on the nose. I have given it a couple of goes, but it still falls short of a drinkable rum for me. This has been given away to a neighbour.

Fantastic rum for the price. Very impressed.

It's really good rum for a daily and you will watch the bottle disappear scary fast on a long night as it just slides down
