Nice Rum but not as good as the 15-year old El Dorado.

El Dorado 12 letý ( Zlatý )
40% ( Guyana ) Anglický styl

Lihovar vznikl na přelomu 17-18 století, původně byl určen námořníkům, kteří se v Guyaně usadili při hledání pokladu bájného El Dorada.

Díky jedinečnému způsobu destilace a použití výhradně melasy jako základu tvoří El Dorado rum samostatnou kategorii karibských rumů – Demerara. Tím je také dána jejich obecná charakteristika: velmi aromatické, s plným tělem a bohatou chutí.

( Číslo 12 označuje nejmladší složku rumu v lahvi )

Názor : Pokud někdo hledá typického představitele rumu v této cenové kategorii okolo 700,- neudělá chybu. Rum je plný, jemně nasládlý s chutí kůže, dřeva a melasy v závěru pak do suchosti. Ideální na celovečerní popíjení. Určitě si pořídím vyzrálejší kousek této značky.

I love this rum for its flavor but even more for its availability - I can generally always find a bottle even in restricted ABC stores in VA. It’s complex and makes for an excellent base in topical cocktails to balance out the sweetness and acidity.

Great rum if u like that specific demerara taste as i do. Its complex, not syrupy at all, but powerful and smooth.
Its a sipper so drink it neat.

South American rum is growing on me. I was a fan of the Venezuela and am happy to report that Guyana is not disappointing. this has a little bit of a Zacapa feel but way less sugary and more oak. It's smooth and light but packs a punch. I used it in a Kingston Palaka and was quite happy but it is also very good as a sipping rum.

Cez tmavé sklo človek nevidí, čo sa skrýva vnútri, no pomerne vysoké ratingy doslova vyzývali skúsiť aj tento rum s kovbojsky znejúcim názvom. Vôňa je dosť výrazná a hutná, farba skôr tmavšia, takmer sivohnedá. V chuti je okamžite poznať dlhšiu dobu zrenia, dominuje teda dubové drevo, koža, oriešky, časom ma určite napadnú aj ďalšie tóny. Drink je sladší, dosť "ťažký" a silný, no bez zbytočného burnu. Vôňa sa okamžite rozlezie po všetkých vnútorných dutinách, záver je dlhý. Toto je v danej cenovej kategórii naozaj kvalitka, určite patrí k tomu najlepšiemu, čo som pil. Bez debaty budem skúšať aj súrodencov z vyšších, ale aj nižších poschodí.
