Dos Maderas 5+3

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

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

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

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.

Excelente Ron, para los que gusten de intensa presencia a vainilla. Para tomar solo con hielo.

Been wanting to try this one for a while and finally pulled the trigger. The nose is light but I do get a little vanilla and oaky scent. First sip has a citrus like bite that moves into the Sherry notes and finishes in a dry vanilla oak finish.

Amazing drop off from the 5+5. A lot of that has to do with this being a solera system expression, but a lot also has to do with a lack of care and craftsmanship. This left it tasting very young and not at all complex. Sherry finish is just a passing glance. Young, thin. with marginal smoothness, no complexity or finish and what do you have? Bad rum, that's what.

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.

It is a bit dry and with an alcoholic taste in the mouth. It does not have much evolution, rather a flat taste

Muy buen aroma y el sabor no es malo pero muy alcoholizado. Mezclado es de lo mejor.
