Centenario 7-Year

I would call this a middling rum. The case is smooth gold, but the nose and finish are slightly astringent. Not a bad rum, but not what I'd consider a great rum.

This isn't a bad rum, little light in both color, body and flavor. It has good notes of vanilla up front but unfortunately it doesn't last through the finish. It isn't bad with a single ice cube however it is best destined for mixing.

Okay on the rocks but I prefer this one with some Coke. Would be interested to try the older ones.

I'm making all of the drinks in Bahama Bob Leonard's cocktail book and many call for Centernario 7 Year. I love them all and this rum adds just the right flavor to them. In is drinkable straight if you don't have anything older around as well.
