The name of this rum is indicative of it's nature "Dos Maderas" translates as "two woods" meaning the oak barrels in which it is aged for 5 years and the sherry casks in which it is finished for an additional 3 years. Those three years give it a distinct flavor that is noticeably sherry while easing the oak tones. This results in a fairly nice rum. However this is best suited for mixing. The sherry flavor won't overwhelm the adult beverage of your choice but will give it a little bit of a twist in flavor due to the sherry finish. Sipping it reveals a sweetness to it that isn't too strong. There is vanilla and toffee flavors underneath but the sherry tones come forward rather quickly before the burn takes over. However the burn fades quickly leading back to the sherry. It's almost a mixed drink in of itself if you happen to like drinking sherry as well as cooking with it. In my honest opinion I feel this is better suited for mixed drinks. Especially anything with grenadine in it. The grenadine and sherry flavors play well together. Also this is quite good in coke zero as well. It's unique enough to be recommendable to add to your liquor cabinet for those times you desire something a little different but not weird. I think more bars, especially tropical-themed bars, should have this as a mandatory part of their selection. I know I would.

Aged rum with a two-stage ripening process. First, he rests for 5 years in American oak barrels in the Caribbean. Later, it is sent to the Williams & Humbert vineyard in Jerez (Andalusia - Spain), where it undergoes the final stage of aging, which lasts for three years in barrels that were previously used for aging honored with the international sherry "Dos Cortados". Sweet aroma - vanilla, toffee, chocolate-covered cherries, raspberry. In the mouth - figs, a lot of wood tannins, even too much because it gets tart, bitter tea, a hint of pepper. The finish is pleasant - the astringency is still there, but it is skin and tea with sugar. At the end of the note salty licorice salmiakki surprises.

Mucho vino, toque Caribe. Un poco alcohólico al final

Tento rum ma skôr sklamal a medzi ním a starším PX5+5 je obrovský rozdiel. Tento je o čosi suchšie,no skôr fádny,ničím neprekvapil a preto každému odporúčam si doplatiť pár EUR a kúpiť jeho staršieho brata.

Nothing wrong but not enough right. Light flavor and burn. Almost no nose. Price point is high for what you get.

Хороший, но по качествам уступает своему брату '5+5'

Mi aspettavo di più da questo rum, leggendo recensioni, anche se il gusto è molto soggettivo, lo pensavo migliore... all’ olfatto è piacevole, ma il gusto lo trovo piatto, eccessivo tenore di alcol che non riesce a farmelo apprezzare appieno!

Tastes a bit worn out. But also could be the bottle. I wouldn’t remember the taste for long, it’s too weak. Light

A good blend of the 5 and 3 to make something that taste about 8.

Nie zlé, skôr sa to hodí na celovečerné pitie v skupine ako na mňamku na večer.
Celkom chutný, zázrak sa nekonal, hlavne v tejto cenovej relácii.

Ocakaval som lepsiu chut. Chuti dost po vanilke. Oproti 5+5 je to sklamanie.
