Habe mich durch den günstigen Preis für einen XO verführen lassen und war dann doch enttäuscht - wenig komplex, dafür recht alkoholische Schärfe. Auf jeden Fall kein verzuckerzer Rum.

Nothing very special or noteworthy here. Pretty standard rum fare with a nice dry light sweetness on the backend. Not a bad value for $33 US. It’s good for sipping if you aren’t looking for anything bold or unique and it ships work well in any rum cocktail that calls for an aged rum.

Lots of flavours for a rather young for a competitive price

I actually intended to buy the 12Y, but this was mixed in on the shelf. Just my luck. That said it’s a pretty good rum. There’s a bit of heat throughout, but not overwhelming. Not complex, but the Sherry cask flavor is there. Overall pretty good for the price.

Its barbados rum, that's mean no sugar or chemical flavors. Just a little dry, all sweetness from spanish oloroso sherry cask. Very good for such price.

Jedná se o sladší světlý rum z Barbadosu, chuť obsahuje prvky trpického ovoce.

Don't waste your money on this one and go straight to 12yo.

I was excited to give this reputable brand a try. I’m a bit choked that there is no age statement or even an age range, as my idea of this distillery was one of transparency. There’s absolutely no information on the bottle which is a shame.
Color is light amber and it smells of orange peels and raisins. It’s not as smooth as I would’ve guessed for 43% and the flavour isn’t terribly complex. Pretty strong oak flavour and good clean rum taste. There is no foreign taste, the kind you get with some not-so-good brands.
Overall, it's a solid clean rum though I wouldn't seek it out as anything more than that.

I bought this because it claimed to have Oloroso Sherry influence, but if it has any at all its very light. Overall not a bad rum for $20, its priced fairly, but its not as interesting a flavor profile as the Doorly's 12yr. To me this has a similar taste to R.L.Seales 10yr, in that there's less wood influence than the 12yr, but the Seales has more complexity, this is a fairly simple tasting rum, but not bad at all.

BTW, my bottle doesn't look like the one in the image, and its 40% ABV, not 43%. It has a lot more text regarding the Oloroso Sherry Casks which isn't present in the image for this thread. The only common thing is the XO designation, and the blue parrot on the label, so I'm not sure if we're all reviewing the same rum.

In my opinion, Doorly's XO is among the best values for the right amount of money. No artificial things were added, just Barbadian love.

Not the best sipper. Makes very good rum and cokes. One that my wife (who "hates" rum) liked mixed.
