Exceptionally smooth rum. Tried my friends and forgot to review so had a second try a month later and appreciated it's quality even more.

Very nice but if you've tried the 15 year you can get a real application for what that extra 3 years does for the quality.

A wonderful blend of sweet, burn, and wood flavors. This is a rum to measure others by.

all the usual bull for the tasting note, hints of this, tones of that, cool if you not so flush to buy the 21 (which is over priced) really nice in a mix, maple syrup, good cider, and ice...can be be sipped or poured over rocks, maybe el dorado should make this in to a solera....yeah, it deserves more than a couple of shots....(the 8 is better!)

There is not much to say about that rum except that every buyer will be conquere by it's flavour profile, quality & value for money.

This is one of the nicest rums you can get - at Β£30 it's a bargain.
Price is not indicative of quality and this rum from this small island proves it.
If you use this in a punch, like my sister did, you need a stern talking too.
Smooth, lots of flavour and no head freeze hit - brilliant!
