Fruity, caramel, and spice on the tongue with a smooth finish. It takes you almost to that bourbon/whiskey taste, BUT stops before it gets there.

One of the best rums to begin your sipping journey.

Просто бомбезний аромат, та і смак просто чудовий. Один з найкращих для мене ромів. Дуже добре збалансований.

Makes for a good mixer and decent sipper. For the price this rum is a nice one to have on the shelf when people drop in to visit.

Tried it neat at a bar and I enjoyed the fruitiness and roundedness. Went out and bought a bottle and have a few which leads me to think the 15 is superior. Is it worth the extra cost? To me it is.

The zesty, orange peel flavour reminds me of Ron Zacapa 23, but this isn't as sweet.

Expensive mixer but a bit boring sipper.
I would rather by something else in this price range.

Auf der süßen Seite, etwas unruhig , aber durchaus trinkbar.
On the sweet side, a little restless , but quite drinkable.

I have been trying a lot rums under $50 lately and I had read good things about El Dorado 12 before picking up a bottle. It smells wonderful and it has a fruity, sweet flavor. To me, it is sort of in the vein of a Santa Teresa 1796 or Diplomatico Gran Reserva. This definitely has sugar added. Maybe just a little too much for some bourbon and rum drinkers but this is an excellent sipper over a large ice cube or even neat.
