Taste notes for Ron Abuelo Centuria Reserva de la Familia. Nose: thick, sticky, syrupy nose with smoky notes of molasses and black syrup. Vanilla and barrel char, a touch of greasy espresso bean and a beautiful note of cedar. It develops into hints of asphalt on a hot day this summer, old ropes and apple sprinkled with dark brown sugar. Taste: Sweet and rounded, intensely fruity like apple strudel with soft, juicy sultanas, nutmeg and cinnamon. Melted vanilla ice cream, toasted brioche with Demerara sugar, caramel apples and just a touch of smoke. The whole package is not unlike bread and butter pudding. Finish: Medium finish with prunes and walnut. Hints of cardamom on the tail. It almost also feels like a real Pedro Ximinez sherry aftertaste.
