In fine, then, the general profile of the Centenario strikes an intriguing balance between the smooth lightness of some of the Colombian rums and the slightly more assertive Panamanians.
I like the versatility it displays as I am able to enjoy the Gran Legado spirit over ice, with a splash of cola, and even in fancier cocktails. Frankly, I do not care if the rum is not really 12 years old, it tastes great, and that is all that matters.
