The Whisky Agency Pirates Rum Series (Roenhee) 1993
Old age and a striking bottle set up expectations this 31-year Cuban doesn't quite meet — several members call it flat and watery for the proof. The nose does the heavy lifting: roasted nuts, dark chocolate, prunes and burnt sugar, leathery and faintly smoky. On the palate it thins out, turns spirity, and the finish fades fast. Most end up mixing the rest into a Cuba libre.

The look inside the bottle
How does The Whisky Agency Pirates Rum Series (Roenhee) 1993 taste?
Aggregated from 13 community reviews.
Aged Cuban with a rich nose but thin palate The recurring letdown: a lovely woody, nutty nose that goes thin and spirity on the palate. Good nose, short story — many just mix it with cola.

Review by Master P
Mhhh, unfortunately it's nothing. The age and the bottle design give hope for something good. I don't get anything out of it, neither on the nose nor on the palate. The rest of the sample will be mixed as Cuba, maybe it's good there.
Review by SaibotZtar
Cubans are rather new territory for me, especially pure ... In Cuba it is already quite pleasing, pure is still pending. Edit: Chocolate, roasted nuts, some honey (peach 😲) and something woody - these are the key notes. Kind of flat for the age and the ABV... mmh not bad also somehow weak .
Review by Johannes
Sweet, tangy, little flavor
Review by zabo
Today's test again features three different rums from Cuba. RX18127, RX21972 and RX14970. My conclusion is that the RX21972 is by far the clear loser. The other two are on the same level, but could not rise to the higher spheres for me. Tested neat and of course with lime, cola and ice.
