Really liked this rum better than the 15 year old and cheaper notes of banana and brown sugar
Slightly spicy up front that mellows to reveal a buttery banana flavor. Great for sipping.

I prefer this to the more expensive 15yr and for the price ($30 in Chicago) I haven’t found a better value for a rum to sip on. I think it has a nice initial flavor and there is definitely a bit of a burn afterwards but overall I think this is a great stock rum to keep around. Medium dark color, very smooth for the price point, well balanced.

Super beau produit
Les saveurs explose de partout
De prime abord on goûte les fruits rouges confis et des note de mélasse par la suite votre bouche est enrobé par une belle chaleur et bien une saveur de noix grillé avec une final boisé bien équilibré
For the price it's a good affordable sweet rum. Better options out there though
I think it's a good rum to start with. It lets you experience multiple dimensions of flavours within a few seconds. After every sip you immediately get a little alcohol burn in combination with the typical taste of rum, but nevertheless it still runs smooth on your throat. Then you'll enjoy the vanilla aroma wich will be followed up with a strong but enjoyable aroma of Orange
Quite a bite. Blended with a softer rum, easier to drink

Rich and wonderful sipper, hard down as one of my favorite rums.

A mio parere eccezzionale, non si puo non averne una bottiglia in casa
Lush tropical fruit and spice nose with hints of honey and dark sugar...
"El Dorado 12-Year rum review by Mike at Ultimate Rum Guide"
It’s sweeter with more delicate fruit flavours coming to the fore.
"It’s very sweet and quite light. It’s very easy drinking. As a sipping rum it as easy to drink."

My first bought rum was this beauty.
Not the best, but most def not the worst.
And here, is dont do the rum justice.
It is great. Once you start drinking more and more over different brands of rum this can either be your homebrand or one just to remember
