Dos Maderas 5+3

I only had a glass of this, mind you. It was decent, but lacking. Good, but wouldn't order it again.

This label is not my cup of tea... blame me, but it is what it is.

Al naso barile, vaniglia, sherry, frutti secchi e qualcosa di liquirizia.
Al palato delicato con vaniglia, leggero bosco, sherry e spezie sul finale medio. Interresante chi ha trovato note di sapone, in effetti ha qualcosa che lo ricorda vagamente per la consistenza e il gusto. Purtroppo gli manca profondità e corpo, ma non è male

Tasted at Laka Lono July 17, 2022
It's a bad sign when a rum is labeled "double aged," what does that mean??
The aroma - cedar
The taste - I am sad to report that this rum tastes like yarn.
Re-taste July 16, 2023 upgrading my rating to a 5/10 because it is quite nice in a lime Rickey
Revisited August 30 2023 in Dax from at Laka Lono Kill Devil rum club. still tastes like yarn.

Nejhorsi z Maderasu, co jsem pil, nestoji za to, už ne

Dufter af karamel og vanilje en smule sprittet. Behagelig duft. Den føles rimelig flad i munden. Den smager mest af røg/brændt og meget sprittet. Det er ikke en rom jeg vil udsætte mine smagsløg for igen.

The sherry taste is so strong I was wondering if I was drinking rum. Not my choice again, but probably for someone who likes the intense sherry finish. Apart of that, the rum is a bit mild, not too sweet but there is a big difference to the Dos Maderas 5+5, eventhough that one also is too much sherry for me.

Compared to both Seleccion and 55 it is by far the poorest tasting. I would recommend avoiding it and going for one of the 2 others.

Svetla farba uz vopred napovedala, ze rum nebude mat vyraznu chut. Vona jemna, citit sudy od sherry PX, v ktorych rum zrel 3 roky. Chut suchsia, alkohol sice nepreraza nejak extremne vyrazne, ale rum nema telo a nieje nicim zaujimavy. Dochut v ustach neostava ziadna. Par rokov v sude by mu este prospelo... Nic vynimocne medzi premiovymi rumami.

Drink rum, det är en bra början till deras äldre....
