Rich, dark, and packed with layered flavour, this Guatemalan rum is the kind of bottle that makes you look forward to the next pour.
It’s called “Reserva Especial” for a reason. You’re getting a solera-style rum (a blend of different ages married together over time), which means the flavour lands with depth and polish instead of feeling one-note.
What you’ll notice first is that warm, bakery-style sweetness, think caramel and vanilla, then it opens into toasted oak and dried fruit. It’s got weight on the palate, but it stays balanced, so you can keep exploring without your taste buds tapping out.
Tasting notes
- Nose: Caramel, vanilla, toasted oak, a hit of dried fruit
- Taste: Toffee and baked pineapple up front, then cocoa, spice, and gently charred wood
- Finish: Long and warming, lingering caramel, oak, and a soft spice fade
Because it’s built around blending and ageing complexity, it plays two roles really well. It’s a satisfying sipping rum when you want something with real structure, and it’s also a smart choice for rum cocktails where you want the spirit to show up, not disappear behind mixers.
If you’re stocking a home bar and you want one rum that feels “serious” without being fussy, this is a very safe bet. It brings flavour you can point to (toffee, oak, cocoa) and it’s consistent glass to glass.
Fun Fact: Botran’s rums are aged in Guatemala’s highlands, where cooler temperatures can slow maturation and help build a more gradual, layered profile.
