Canuto Ron Canuto XO
Opinions here run cool rather than warm. A few tasters find it pleasantly smooth with orange peel on the finish, but more people call out a spirity, hot edge and a flat, "not memorable" middle. The nose leans caramel, vanilla and brown sugar; the palate turns drier and spicier than the aroma suggests. Column-still Ecuadorian, 9 years, 43% — pleasant but not exceptional.
The community says- Caramel-vanilla nose
- Hot, spirity
- Flat mid-palate

The look inside the bottle
How does Canuto Ron Canuto XO taste?
Aggregated from 34 community reviews.
Spirity, spice-forward sipper that divides drinkers Splits the room. Some enjoy the smooth caramel-orange side; more find it hot, spirity and forgettable, closer to a rough young whisky than a rich sipper.

Review by Gryffx
starke Orangenschale im Abgang, ein frischer, überraschend unterhaltsamer Rum
Review by Dirk E.
Für mich ein schöner Geschmeidiger Rum.
Review by Tom Buteneers
Ik vond deze versie eerst nergens terug, tot ik via de Instagram van Canuto rum ontdekte dat deze binnenkort nog gereleased moet worden. 24 days of rum brengt dus een primeur met zich mee! De smaak doet me denken aan andere XO’s die ik al geproefd heb (vb, Mount Gay, Esclavo of Plantation), maar die schat ik alle drie toch wat hoger en verfijnder in dan deze. Het smaakprofiel in vergelijking met de anderen is wat meer afgevlakt en minder complex, maar tegelijkertijd ook minder zoet wat helemaal niet zo erg is. Aangenaam, maar niet uitzonderlijk.
