This is had a thicker consistency than I was expecting and was quite sweet. The flavor profile presented spice, vanilla, caramel, and molasses. Beyond the sweetness I think this would be an incredible rum. However, the more I drink it, the more I'm liking it.

I rate the 12 year highly because it reminds me of the one experience I had tasting the 30 year.

The 12 year is still an incredibly tasty drop and I personally find that El Dorado is the flavour I think of when I am craving a rum.

30 year is better but the 12 year will still hit the spot.

Poměr cena výkon to nejlepší co sem měl. Klasický demerara rum velmi těžký
a hutný. Minimálně vyzkoušet doporučuju každému. Standart klasických rumů. Za mě 8.5.

Sweet smoke on the nose. Unusual spicy, smoky prune palette followed by a lovely smooth banana finish

I really like this, its ike a chameleon it changes based on what you drank before it. Usually it is sweet but I have experienced the bitter side of this after drinking some (way to sweet) coke.
An amazing starter rum, I got this as a gift for my birthday and now I cant wait to try the 15 and the 21.

Very simillar to Zacapa. Anyway - you feel more hand-work from El Dorado.

had a tasting after dinner with the plantation gran anejo, anejo has more flavour but El Dorado is smoother on the tongue and nose

For the price about 25 EUR, I didn´t find any better rum with so complexity. It took a while for me to enjoy it, but then it was worth of it. I´am looking forward to older versions.

Nagyon kellemes selymes rum. Illatában és ízében is hozza amit ígér. Nálam elmaradt a wow faktor,de ez nyilván ízlés kérdése is! De bátran ajánlom egy beszélgetős estére!
