Dos Maderas PX 5+5

En heeeelt fantastiskt god rom!!! Kanske lite för spritig för min smak, men det gör faktiskt ingenting alls för en gång skull. Den hamnade raskt på min Top-5-lista!!!

La premiere fois que j'ai goûté ce rhum s'était suite a la recommandation d'un expert de la SAQ ( société des alcools du Québec). Je le buvais dans un ballon à cognac et il ne m'a pas impressionné. Je me suis procuré des verres a Rhum et j'ai regoûté è ce nectar. Après 5 bonnes minutes dans le verre à le faire tournoyer et à le humer, il est rapidement devenu un de mes rhum préféré. Plein de saveurs subtils et laisse un goût qui donne envie d'en reprendre près du feu.

A pleasant rum. Great on its own. I personally wouldn't mix it. Sweet with a great flavour.

Color is nice, a rich dark amber. Nose is lots of sugars, a faint spice, a faintly "burned" note that I guess is molasses. Perhaps a light mint as well. Mouth is lots of sugars, more of that pleasant burning molasses, and some darker fruity flavors that I suppose are from the sherry casks. Texture is on the thin side. This seems familiar and it drinks pretty nicely, but it's not exciting or getting to the more exciting world of tropical rum that I'm looking for.

Dos Maderas which translates to "wood" or "lumber" is an impressive tasting rum for the price (ranges $38-$52). It gets it's name from the aging process detailed in the description.

Color - Amber
Nose - Molasses, caramel and sherry
Taste - Honey, raisins, vanilla with subtle cocoa and tea notes. Very little burn.

Serve neat! It's also good on the rocks, but I felt it diluted the great flavor. I found the aftertaste to be very enjoyable as well!

Enjoy my friends!

Sweet and warm, with good essences of smoked wood. It's a ron for "every day" drinking.

I have had it with sweet rums. I find rums which have been artificially sweetened harder to drink than actual sweet liqueurs, for some reason. Dos Maderas is sickly sweet. Leaves you completely saturated with sugar after one glass. There is some depth but the added sugar makes it much harder to appreciate any flavour. It is smooth though and would appeal to a certain palate.

If you're looking for a unique experience give this a try. It's a very interesting rum. It reminds me of a port, and that's a good thing.

God smag men lidt spritter i munden. Foretrækker diplomaticoe.

Frankly, I was surprised how its different from Dos Maderas 5+3.. in a good way. Great taste from triple ageging process, which for me is the best for given price. Still some alcohol burn but thats expectable for 10 YO rum.
