Oliver & Oliver Opthimus 15 Años OportO 2001
Caramel, burnt sugar and vanilla lead, with plum and raisin from the port cask underneath and a little coffee on the nose. It's soft, oily and clearly sweetened, with a short finish. Several tasters use it on ice or even pour it over dessert. One member called the 2019 easy but underwhelming — the port finish stays faint.
The community says- Caramel and vanilla
- Easy sipping

How does Oliver & Oliver Opthimus 15 Años OportO 2001 taste?
Aggregated from 26 community reviews.
Sweet, soft port-finished dessert sipper Sweet, soft and easy — caramel, vanilla and a plummy port note over a light body. Most enjoy it as a dessert sipper, though the added sugar and short finish leave some cold.

Review by Werner10
Sweet, burned sugar (caramel), vanilla Short finish. Not bad for my taste.
Review by Fiete Heinrich
Im Zuge eines Blind Tastings verkostet. In der Nase ist sofort diese spezielle pflaumige Fruchtigkeit präsent, die ich mit den Tres Hombres aus der Dominikanischen Republik verbinde. Sehr angenehme Nase. Das leere Glas später hat eine feine Holzrauchnote. Im Mund setzt sich die Frucht, vor allem die Pflaume zusammen mit Rosinen fort. Dahinter Backpulver, ziemlich süß, etwas kräutrig. Das Finish ist kurz und etwas dünn. Etwas trockener mit höherem Proof würde diesem Rum zum "sehr gut" helfen.
Review by Timo Groeger
Oh ja sehr lecker. In Nase und Gaumen einen schöne leichte Vanille-, Karamell-, und Kaffeenote. Genau so soll es sein. Dieser Rum hat mich überzeugt. Kann und muss ihn auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen. Sehr lecker.

Palate Oily, sweet, light wood, caramel, dried fruit, light orange, faint chocolate, port, vanilla. Finish Short to medium, sweet, oily, light wood, orange, light caramel, port, light chocolate. Extra note. This is a very sweet rum and I have been using it as dessert rum or for baking&on ice cream.
Review by Tom Buteneers
Tried this one today, but the 2019.To be honest: not impressed. It’s an easy drinker, quite sweet with a little burn. Port finish not that noticeable. Definitely sugar added. Does not stand out. Probably would have loved it 5 years ago.
