El Dorado 3-Year

This rum is pretty decent for its price point. Obviously, it's far from a premium (which is why I am giving it a 7 for what it is at its own level rather than what it is compared to the really good stuff) but all things considered I think this white rum actually holds up pretty well when stacked against many of its competitiors around the same price. It's reasonably smooth and not nearly as nasty when you take a whiff as some of the other sugar water white rums are out there that smell like they could be combustable if near a naked flame.

It has a fair amount of vanilla (but not too much) and when you blend it into mojito's or other classic white rum beverages it blends really well.

It also doesn't give you nearly as much of a nasty hangover as lesser white rums such as Malibu or Bacardi

Usually priced around 40 AUD I'd say if your blending cocktails for a party and you want something above bacardi this is a good candidate. Bottle looks nice and everyone knows El Dorado make quite a respectable range of rums.

Definitely worth a buy at your local bottle store the next time you're doing cocktails.

This mixing rum has a bit more character than the typical "white rum" offerings. There's a little vanilla, banana, and coconut but it isn't overwhelming. ED3 works really well in a daiquiri or mojito. It was my go-to for a cocktail cabinet mixing rum for a long time.

Hey what can you say about a white rum ?
This offering from El dorado was and is an excellent example of what white rum can be a very very good mixer that offers a smooth delivery and a great white rum mixer drink 👍

I use it for cocktails and mixers. Definitely one of the better ones.

Remarkably clear for the flavour. Smooth with the alcohol tang at the end. Drunk straight

jemně ovocná ve vůni i v chutí, náznak koření, nic výrazného

A standard white rum, refreshing smell. It’s quite bitter neat. However with a a mixer it’s tastey, moreish and vanilla. I like it but it’s not unique.

Really good mixer with some hints of vanilla at a decent price.

En god lys rom til drinks, til en fornuftig pris .Bedre end Bacardi.
