Centenario Fundación 25 Años Gran Reserva <25yr 40%
Centenario Fundación 25 Años Gran Reserva from Costa Rica's Fabrica Nacional de Licores is a 40% ABV rum notable for its aromatic vanilla, woody, and raisin notes. Distilled from molasses and aged under 25 years, this rum delivers a sweet, fruity palate accented by mild burnt sugar and wooden hints, offering balanced complexity. Popular among enthusiasts for its smoothness and sweet nuances, some highlight its affordability and accessible flavor profile. Critiques on added sweetness and simplicity, however, surface among discerning tasters familiar with more complex or unsweetened styles. The rum finds favor as an easy-drinking choice for those enjoying sweeter, less challenging spirits. Despite its commendable qualities, some reviewers prefer the comparable Centenario 20 for its price-to-experience ratio.

“This is a medium priced rum and they did pretty well. A very flavourful rum with lots of wooden notes and fruit. Not too sweet, but nicely balanced and medium complexity. Price to quality is very good.”

“Now also the 25y times in the glass! Foreground honey / caramel, vanilla and roasted coffee! In addition, banana, raisin and coconut resonates from time to time. In the mouth moderately sweet and mild, continuing the nose. Chocolate and coffee are found more in the finish, making for a delicious and round experience. I don't remember the 30y being this good, which is also significantly sweeter!”

“Seit 1,5 Jahren dümpelt ein 2. Sample vom Centenario 25 in meinem Keller herum. Jetzt im Urlaub "traue" ich mich nochmal heran und muss sagen, dass ich sogar noch enttäuschten bin als beim ersten Mal. In der Nase sehr flach, aber am Gaumen dann mineralische Noten, wie zum Beispiel Salzlake und nach ca. 5 Sekunden im Mund wird er künstlich, wirkt fast parfumiert. Im Nachklang etwas Kaffee, aber nichts wirklich Interessantes, was mich irgendwie fesseln könnte. Für mich eine Enttäuschung und eine wohlwollende Bewertung als Mittelmäßig.”
