"If aged, affordable rum is your go-to, this lightly sweet expression might be for you. The value of this slightly vanilla Flor de Caña expression from Nicaragua means longer aging for a relatively affordable price tag. While the brand also offers a younger, molasses-forward release and an oaky, more heavily-aged version, this rum is the perfect balance between the two."

"Richer and immersive, with notes of almond and hazelnut heavy on the nose, alongside a toasted marshmallow sweetness. Spicy with ginger and nutmeg, plus a smoldering barrel char quality. The palate is immediately thick with coffee notes, well-sweetened with brown sugar and a hint of tarry molasses. Fruit comes and goes, giving the rum a tropical quality later in the game, hinting at coconut dipped in chocolate. More coffee on the finish, well-sweetened but not cloying." - Drinkhacker (B+)

"Soft fruit and gentle sweetness with a smooth mouthfeel make this appealing and approachable." - Intl Wine & Spirits Competition 2023
